Ben,
  Thanks very, very much. Duh, of course a variable is the solution.
However, one has to change the content of the XSL:FOR-EACH element to:
<xsl:if test="position() != 1">&amp;</xsl:if>id<xsl:value-of select="position()"/>=<xsl:value-of select="@id"/>
 
so that the whitespace does not become part of the element.
