Subject: [docbook-apps] xref within index

Hi All,

I'm trying to use xref within an index so that the xref points to
another entry within the index. The problem is the anchor tag never gets
created in the xhtml. I'm using docbook-xsl-1.65.1.

Here's example code:

<index>
<title>Index Title</title>
<indexdiv><title>A</title>
  <indexentry><primaryie>APR</primaryie>
              <seeie><emphasis role="italic">See</emphasis>
              <xref linkend="a1001"/></seeie>
  </indexentry>
  <indexentry id="a1001" xreflabel="Alaska &#x26; Polar Regions">
           <primaryie>Alaska &amp; Polar Regions</primaryie>
   </indexentry>
</indexdiv>
</index>

The outout after the transform is:

{snip...}

<dt>Alaska &amp; Polar Regions</dt> /* notice the id isn't output

<dt>APR</dt>
<dd><dl><dt><span class="italic">See</span> <a
href="ix01.html#a1001">Alaska &amp; Polar Regions</a></dt></dl></dd>
<dt>

So, do I need to customize my xsl files? If so, should it be index.xsl
or xref.xsl?

TIA,
