RE: [xsl] Generating Unique ID

["Ragulf Pickaxe" <ragulf.pickaxe@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Arun,

Why do you need the id to contain its parents id as well?

You have a function, generate-id(), which generates a unique id on a node.

If you need an id like what you state, you will need to do something like 
this (a variation of identity template):

<xsl:template match="*">
 <xsl:variable name="special-id">
   <xsl:for-each select="ancestor-or-self::*">
     <xsl:value-of select="generate-id(.)"/>
   </xsl:for-each>
 </xsl:variable>
 <xsl:copy>
   <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
   <xsl:attribute name="ID"><xsl:value-of 
select="$special-id"/></xsl:attribute>
   <xsl:apply-templates/>
 </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

Is the above what you need?
