So, the sort order you want is Year, then Month, then Day?

Subject:  [xsl] xsl:sort

Hi,

I am trying to sort a list of jobs using:

            <xsl:for-each select="//job">
            <xsl:sort select="@time" />
            ........etc

However the value of time is sorted by the day not date order ie:

Fri Apr 01 14:55:08 BST 2005

will come before 

Thu Mar 31 13:54:55 BST 2005

as the sort is using the default data-type and sorting as text. Is there
a way to sort these values using the date values of @time?

thanks
