Subject: RE: sorting with the value from a tag From: Kay Michael <Michael.Kay@xxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 11 Oct 2000 09:18:59 +0100 |
This is a FAQ. The select attribute of xsl:sort takes an XPath expression that evaluates to the sort key, not an XPath expression that evalauates to a string containing another XPath expression that evaluates to the sort key. You can sometimes achieve what you want using select="*[name()=$sortkey]", if you want something more general, Saxon has the saxon:evaluate() extension.
