Re: [xml-dev] automatically generate ID attribute for XML element

John,

You may want to look at the approach jCAM is taking to this using UID
values.

The advantage of doing this in the <ContentReference> section of your
CAM template is that instead of the on-the-wire XML instances all having
to carry this baggage - they are all neatly in the CAM template instead
- that can be referenced off-line as needed.

See http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/cam for more details, tutorial
and open source links.
