Now it works :) Thank you very much...
but I still have a lot of problems in understanding how this works
Can somebody help me to understand commenting the code?
The Xslt I is at

Let's start from the basic concepts:
If I have an xml list like this

__________________________________________
Xml

<xml>
    <element>1</element>
    <element>3</element>
    <element>2</element>
    <element>4</element>
    <element>5</element>
</xml>

how can I obtain an ordered list like this

__________________________________________
Xhtml

<table>
    <tr>
        <td>list:</td>
        <td>1</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td/>
        <td>2</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td/>
        <td>3</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td/>
        <td>4</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td/>
        <td>5</td>
    </tr>
</table>

list:   1
        2
        3
        4
        5

Thank you very much :)
And excuse me if I don't understand, but I have not a programmer's brain (or
I'm simply stupid :P)
If you need the help of an information architect, please ask freely :)
