Replacing a string with another nodes text.

From: "siac99" <simonwatt@-----.--->

I want to turn this:

<root>
	<book>
		<name>answerToce02dde2-07a5-4a7a-9c72-51e97c13af8d</name>
		<author>answerTo47f8c10a-2032-4de3-9862-6056850f8002</author>
		<year>1986</year>
	</book>

	<answers>
		<answer id="ce02dde2-07a5-4a7a-9c72-51e97c13af8d">Xslt for
dummies</answer>
		<answer id="47f8c10a-2032-4de3-9862-6056850f8002">Bob</answer>
	</answers>
</root>

Into this:

<root>
	<book>
		<name>Xslt for dummies</name>
		<author>Bob</author>
		<year>1986</year>
	</book>
</root>

In summary: I want to find the element 'book', and for each of its
nodes see if it contains the string 'answerTo'. If it does

then replace the nodes text with the text of the element 'answer' whos
Id attribute mathches the 32 characters next to the 'answerTo' string.

Is is possible to do this with XSLT? If so then how? Can someone point
me in the right direction please?

Cheers, any help is appreciated.
