I first create a key like so, using translate to lump all titles that start with numerals together):

<xsl:key name="letter-group" match="fmp:ROW" use="translate(substring(fmp:COL[2]/fmp:DATA,1,1),'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890','ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ##########')" />

Then I do a for-each over the keys, sort that subset, and output:

<xsl:for-each select="key('letter-group', substring(fmp:COL[2]/fmp:DATA,1,1))">
    <xsl:sort select="substring(fmp:COL[2]/fmp:DATA,1,1)" />



What I want is this, with the quoted titles sorted into their correct alpha location:

Is there a way to do this in XSL 1.1?

Well, which XSLT 1.1 processor is that, does it have any extension function support for easier or more powerful string handling than XPath 1.0 provides?
