You just need to make sure that the IDs that you reference in the
table of contents are generated in the same way as the IDs that you
generate in the body of the document. So if you're creating anchors
with:

  <a name="{generate-id()">...</a>

then you need to create references to those anchors with:

  <a href="#{generate-id()}">...</a>

Cheers,

Jeni
