XSL generate-id problems

[alex bazan]

I used the xslt functions with php4... now i've moved to php5, and, as
the xslt functions are no longer bundled, i'm moving the code to the
XSLTProcessor class.

I've found a problem with the generate-id() XSL function... with the old
functions, generate-id() gave me the same id for the same section of my
XML document every time i processed it. Now, with the XSLTProcessor
class, every time it gives me a new id.

This is not how it's supposed to work, as it is impossible to make
references to sections of the document.

Am i doing something wrong or the new classes are a bit buggy?

thanks.
alex.

I've done a bit of code for anyone who wants to test this one. I also
will be opening a bug report in php.net...

Execute the script and refresh. The ids are change each time the page is
refreshed, when they should stay the same for each node.
