RE: [xml-dev] getElementByID

Since there is no xml:ID, you have to use a schema language (or DTD).
For example, in XML Schema you can do this

<xs:attribute name="id" type="xs:ID"/>

Relax NG also provides support for IDs via it's 'DTD Compatibility'
module [1]. The above can be used only if your parser can validate the
document against such a schema definition.
