"Unresolved internal destination" error and id attribute of reference element

[<Jere.Kapyaho@nokia.com>]

Hi all,

I'm getting an "unresolved internal destination" error from XEP 4.2 when transforming DocBook XML markup containing 'reference' elements to PDF (using the DocBook XSL FO stylesheets v1.68.1).

For example, this markup:

<book>
  <title>Sample book for ID testing</title>
  <!-- stuff removed -->
  <reference id="REF-1" xreflabel="Reference part 1">
    <title>Reference part 1</title>
etc.

causes the error message to be emitted and ToC of the resulting PDF to have a '?' instead of the page number for the reference element. It happens both in this simplified example and a larger production project.

Seems like the 'id' attribute of the 'reference' element is not output to the generated XSL-FO markup. I inserted the 'id' attribute to the XSL-FO block of the reference element by hand and then ran the XSL-FO to PDF transformation again -- no problem there.

Could this be related to the ID issue described in this thread:
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook-apps/200401/msg00070.html? The workaround in the thread does not seem to work in this case. (?) Thanks in advance for any ideas or pointers to a solution.

Best regards,
Jere
