As David Carlisle says, the id() function is sensitive to variations in
how the XML is parsed, and in particular how the DTD is handled. In
general I would avoid it for this reason: use key() instead. The
exceptions are (a) if your ID attributes are named xml:id, and (b) if
you are running schema-aware with the ID attributes declared as xs:ID in
the schema; but even then, using key() is more interoperable.

Can someone please explain to me why this code:

<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">Figure&#x00A0;</xsl:text>
<xsl:for-each select="id(@assocfig)">
<xsl:number count="figure" format="1" from="//ginfowp | //maintwp | //thrywp |
//ctrlindwp" level="any"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</fo:basic-link>
Produces the expected result when I use Saxon 6.5.5 but produces no output when
I use Saxon-EE 9.3.0.5 with Oxygen 13? Specifically the use of the id()
function.
I have other instances in the style sheets using the id() function where the
same problem arises.
Thanks.
