<xsl:template match="FNR">
  <xsl:value-of select="."/>
  <xsl:text> </xsl:text>
  <xsl:value-of select="//FN[@ID = current()/@href]"/>
</xsl:template>

You should ask general XSLT questions on XSL List <http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list/>. Furthermore, you should move to an implementation that implements whole XSLT 1.0 spec, e.g. Saxon or Xalan, as keys make a difference.
