Quick questions -is it needed to use a dtd definition in the XML source
<!DOCTYPE root [
...
<!ELEMENT item (#PCDATA)>
<!ATTLIST item id ID #REQUIRED>
...
]>
in order for id() to match an element with @id attribute? Do some processor
just look for the existnace of @id or is an ID definiton needed? Do some
processors treat this differently (whicyh and how?
final question -what id "id()" called - it isn't a function or is it?
It acts more like text() or comment(). thanxks
----------------
<xsl:template match="id('x123')">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
