[xsl] Processing IDREFS attributes

[Dan Vint <dvint@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've got a few places where I have an attribute of type IDREFS and a 
sequence of ID values like references="Location Party Organization". I had 
thought a simple for-each loop would pull these apart with the id() 
function, in something like this:

<xsl:for-each select="id(@references)">
	<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>

But it doesn't work. What I get is the content of @references with the above.

The only other solution I have thought about is creating a template and 
recursively pulling apart the string. This should work, but I would think 
there is a simpler way to make this work. Is there a solution I missed?
