This is a thorny one. Functions in XSLT and XQuery can create new nodes, and this is a limited kind of side-effect. If f creates a new node, then f is f is defined to be false; similarly generate-id(f) = generate-id(f) will also be false. This means the optimizer has some work to do to decide whether functions have this effect or not. Jun 22, 2010 generate-id generates an id value which can differ based on the XSLT processor you use so I don't think you want to use it for the above code. You simply seem to want to insert the 'id' attribute value of the 'bib' element for each 'author' element so you could simply write a template.

Generate-id(key in xslt

XSLT v1.0 does not include any explicit support for grouping, however it is possible to achieve the same effect through creative use of the key and generate-id functions. This is called the Muenchian Method after its inventor Steve Muench: Create an index such that all elements with a given key can be retrieved quickly and efficiently.

The first generate-id above returns an id for the current City. The second generate-id above returns an id for the first City with a State attribute that is the same as the current City's State attribute. These values will only be equal for the first City elements with a specific State attribute. Oct 07, 2008  Unique Values, XSLT/XPath 1.0. Generate-id gives a string id of the current node (something like 'N40067') /conferences/school list of nodes of the school elements defined.


<xsl:key> tag element specifies a named name-value pair assigned to a specific element in an XML document. This key is used with the key() function in XPath expressions to access the assigned elements in an XML document.

Declaration

Following is the syntax declaration of <xsl:key> element.
