Subject: RE: [xsl] sorting from a set of values From: TSchutzerWeissmann@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Tue, 10 Dec 2002 18:03:03 -0000 |
Hello Isaac Your approach won't work because the "select" bit of a sort is relative to the context node being sorted - that's why your primary sort is <xsl:sort select="@i54"/> By handing it a variable instead you're just evaluating the same nodeset every time, which won't do any sorting. It looks like you want to do a second sort on @i25, where M & I come after all the other letters. If so, you could turn the select expression into a test that evaluated to either true or false, which would give a value to sort on. <xsl:sort select="(@i25 = 'M' or @i25 = 'I')" order="descending"/> Then if you wanted, within the groups, to sort alphabetically, you just use a third sort on @i25, etc. Hope it works. Your xml looks fearsome, Regards, Tom SW XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
