Ugh! accessing current value in <A name= in template

I'm just not getting it:

I want to use the value of the tag as part of a <A name=
but I can't figure it out.  I tried this (and variations
but nothing works).

<xsl:template match="item/id">
  <TD><A name="{id}">&#160;</A><xsl:process-children/></TD>
</xsl:template>

To say it another way,  I have a xml file that looks something like:

<item>
  <id>1</id>
  etc.

and I am building a table and I want the output id column to look like:

<TR>
  <TD><A name="id1">&#160;</A>1</TD>
                 ^            ^
                 |            |   both are the tag value
</TR>

How?  I feel like this should be simple...

Cheers,
Glenn
