Glad you have a solution, but doesn't this really mean you have an attribute missing from your schema, that would enable you to differentiate between different XML instances?
If you had some kind of mixed model with server processing and multiple client interaction, wouldn't you still have a problem because the address would be meaningless outside of the context of a single client?
