Sorting Problem with XSL

Greetings all,

Here's the xml doc

<Contacts>
<Contact name  = "Anupam" salary = "5550">
<Contact name  = "Bhanu" salary = "10000"/>
</Contacts>

xsl stylesheet

<xsl:apply-templates select = "Contact" order-by = "@salary">

This command puts "BHANU" ahead of "ANUPAM" because it sorts on the basis of
first digit. To me, this seems like string comparision rather than sorting by
number.

Question:
----------
Is it possible to do sorting by numbers using stylesheets?

Thanks
