    incrementing

    I need to create unique id's for DIVs for each instance of <foo>
    within each instance of <baras follows. I iterate through both the
    bars and foos via <apply-templates/>. I've tried to use position() but
    that reflects the current <bar>, not the current <foo(the id for the
    first DIV on the second page turns out to be 'foo2').

    I'd appreciate any ideas!

    TIA,
    David

    ========= sample xml =============== =
    <!-- note the there may be other peer elements to the FOOs -->
    <root>
    <bar>
    <foo>blah, blah, blah</foo>
    <foo>bebop, smooth, cool, swing, super cool</foo>
    </bar>
    <bar>
    <foo>baroque, classical, modern</foo>
    <foo>chicago, delta</foo>
    </bar>
    </root>

    ========= sample html =============== =
    page generated for the first <barinstance:
    <html>
    <body>
    <div id="foo1">blah , blah, blah</div>
    <div id="foo2">bebop , smooth, cool, swing, super cool</
    div>
    </body>
    </html>

    page generated for the second <barinstance:
    <html>
    <body>
    <div id="foo1">baroq ue, classical, modern</div>
    <div id="foo2">chica go, delta</div>
    </body>
    </html>
