Subject: [xsl] sort elements in external document From: Vaduvoiu Tiberiu <vaduvoiutibi@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 15 May 2007 05:41:55 -0700 (PDT) |
I want to sort an xml document by data from an external document. Let me see if I can explain this: I have list.xml: <list> <file>file1.xml</file> <file>file2.xml</file> ... <file>file100.xml</file> <list> each of the fileX.xml have inside a date tag: <date>20071015102000</date>(yyyymmddhhmmss). I want to sort the list.xml by the date in each file. The way I did it: <xsl:for-each select="file"> <xsl:variable name="filename" select="file"/> <xsl:sort order="descending" select="document($filename)/date"> File: <xsl:value-of select="."> Date: <xsl:value-of select="document($filename)/date"> </xsl:for-each> The document will list the dates but it doesn't sort them. I also tried <xsl:sort order="descending" data-type="number" select="document($filename)/date"> but it doesn't work. It sorts the list alphabetically after the name of file...file1,file2...file100. What am I doing wrong? 10x ____________________________________________________________________________________Boardwalk for $500? In 2007? Ha!
