    Hello list, why doesn't xml:id on such elements as or
    <screenshot> produce id's on corresponding elements in HTML output?

    There is no 1:1 mapping between DocBook and HTML elements. IDs in HTML
    output are created only when there is reference to element. If natural
    ID is missing in DocBook source then it is automatically created in HTML.

    Why do you need IDs on your HTML elements?

    Exactly for that reason, I need to make a link to them, i.e.:

    <screenshot xml:id="some-screen" xreflabel="Nice screen">
    <mediaobject>
    <imageobject>
    <imagedata fileref="screen.png" />
    </imageobject>
    </mediaobject>
    </screenshot>

    <para>Look at the <xref linkend="some-screen" /> to see it's awesomeness.</para>

    This example is working for me. Which version of DocBook you are using?
    Which version of stylesheets? What's your output format?

    Well, I specify version="5.1" to my root elements, so it's DocBook 5.1, I guess.

    http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl-ns/current/xhtml/docbook.xsl

    It's Fedora's DocBook XSL-NS Stylesheets V1.76.1

    Thank you very much for helping!
