Subject: Re: [xsl] Selection based on date comparison From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 30 Nov 2001 18:39:23 GMT |
You don't say but I assume that you have the somewhat confusing mm/dd/yyy order. If instead you used the ISO format 1999-04-15 then you could just use xsl:sort and lexicographic sorting, or translate(@Trade_Date,'/','') and numeric sorting. Also you'd be able to declare that attribute as a date with W3C XML schema, should you ever wish to. As is you want to compare the resuts of concat(substring(@Trade_Date,7),substring(@Trade_Date,1,2),substring(@Trade_Date,4,2)) (ie numbers/strings of the form 19990405) David _____________________________________________________________________ This message has been checked for all known viruses by Star Internet delivered through the MessageLabs Virus Scanning Service.
