Does XSLT cache doc function includes?

Hi,

I have an XSLT File that needs to insert unique numbers inside of an OID elements multiple times and in multiple places inside of a template.

i.e

<element1>
<OID>1001</OID>
</element1>
<element2>
<OID>1002</OID>
</element2>
<element1Ref>
<OID>1001</OID>
</element1Ref>

I have attempted to use a Form Runner App that uses the xforms:submission processor to read an OID from an exist collection then increments the number and writes it back to the collection which gives me a unique number everytime it runs. Then inside of the stylesheet I am using the following line to create OID variables.

<xsl:variable name="oid1" select="http://localhost:8080/orbeon/GetNextOID"/>
<xsl:variable name="oid2" select="http://localhost:8080/orbeon/GetNextOID"/>

The problem is that each variable gets set to the same OID. The form runner apps works correctly if run directly through the browser, so I am wondering does XSLT not pull the FR app each time and just uses the same value? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jim

Jim,

I think that XSLT imposes that a given URL resolves to the same
document. I.e. within an execution, doc('http://example.org/') is
guaranteed to return the same document. You could maybe add a
parameter to the URL, e.g. doc('http://example.org/?previous-id=1'),
then doc('http://example.org/?previous-id=2'), etc. to make the URL
unique.
