Hi

Has anyone considered using the position function? This returns a number
equal to the position in the current context set, so should be useful
for the kind of thing you want to do.

e.g.

<!-- c01, c02 etc. links -->
<ul>
  <xsl:for-each select="archdesc/dsc/c01">
    <xsl:variable name="c01pos" select="position()"/>
    <li>        
      <a>
        <xsl:attribute name="href">
          <xsl:text>#series</xsl:text>
          <xsl:value-of select="$c01pos"/>
        </xsl:attribute>
        <xsl:apply-templates select="./did/unittitle"/>              
      </a>
      <ul>
	<xsl:for-each select="c02">
	  <xsl:variable name="c02pos" select="position()"/>
	  <li>
	    <a>
	      <xsl:attribute name="href">
		<xsl:text>#series</xsl:text>
         	<xsl:value-of select="$c01pos"/>
		<xsl:text>-</xsl:text>
		<xsl:value-of select="$c02pos"/>
      	      </xsl:attribute>
	      <xsl:apply-templates select="./did/unittitle"/>              
	    </a>
	    <!-- you can nest further lists here if needed ....-->
	  </li>
	</xsl:for-each>
      </ul>
    </li>
  </xsl:for-each>
</ul>
<!-- end c01, c02 etc links -->

I haven't tested this out yet, and of course you'd need corresponding
code to insert the ids at the target position, but I see no reason why
it wouldn't work.
