$moduleID = JUri::getInstance()->toString();
// Split the url instance so we can get the moduel id

Initial Description
It's not possible to use the standard syntax to retrieve the current id of the Joomla module in a Joomla xml element. This code parses the url and grabs the last part of the url which i atypically the module id when editing a module in the Joomla admin. We used this to create a unique cookie for each instance of the module.
