arbitrary sorting

[Oliver Becker <obecker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

supposing I have elements with a month attribute
<report month="Jan" />
<report month="Feb" />
and so on.
Of course unordered :-)

Now I want them in chronological order.
I.e. I have to provide an expression as select attribute of xsl:sort
which is the sort key. Is that possible with standard XSLT?

I know how to translate Jan->1, Feb->2 etc via a named template resp.
xsl:choose, but that doesn't help much in this case.

Thanks for your hints,
Oliver
