A note on spelling; while we in the US ordinarily say the word phonetically as "sof-more", spelling it as "sophmore" is, well, unconventional. The standard spelling is "sophomore". This is important if the alphabetical sort gets that far down into the word. -- Charles Knell cknell@xxxxxxxxxx - email -----Original Message----- From: Williamson, Chris <cwilliamson@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wed, 13 Apr 2005 11:11:20 -0400 To: "'xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'" <xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: RE: [xsl] Unusual Sort Is this not pretty much standard throughout the world or atleast common knowledge? The order is Freshman, Sophmore, Junior, Senior, Graduate. For Highschool, numerically that would be grade 9,10,11,12. What's the uk scale?

But this should create a problem for 'S'ophmore and 'S'enior..right? Well there wasn't a Senior in the example you tried (and I have no idea what the possible grades are, or in what order they are, these names don't seem to have made it into english english:-) If Sophmore comes after Senior you are fine as Bophmore comes after Benior but if you want them in the other order: <xsl:sort select="translate('FSJo','ABCa',grade)"/> Then Baphmare comes before Beniar so Sophmore would then sort before 'Senior David ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star.
