Subject: Re: [xsl] Problem sorting alphabetically: all uppercase entries come first. From: Jeff Kenton <jkenton@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 16 Dec 2003 09:27:49 -0500 |
You can see it works quite well except that words starting with uppercase letters come first. I am guessing it is sorting by ASCII values.
We had a long thread on sorting uppercase a while back. It turns out that the whole world (including at least some xslt implementors, but not including Stan and me) took a very unreasonable reading of the sorting specification in the XSLT spec.
the end result is that you should get "sensible" results in all processors but you will get different results.
I think in this case you want a case insensitive sort and its basically english text so..
