RE: [xsl] sorting on elementnames

[cknell@xxxxxxxxxx]

After cleaning up your child element tags (they are not closed, therefor your document is not XML), this template will do the trick:

<xsl:template match="/something">
 <something>
  <xsl:for-each select="*" >
    <xsl:sort select="name()" order="ascending" data-type="text" />
    <xsl:copy-of select="." />
  </xsl:for-each>
 </something>
</xsl:template>

Subject:  [xsl] sorting on elementnames

Hello

A rather simple question: how can I sort on element names?

All sorting examples I've found sort on attribute values or element values,
but not on element names. 
For example, I have

<something>
   <a>
   <b>
   <b>
   <a>
   <b>
</something>

and I want to get 

<something>
   <a>
   <a>
   <b>
   <b>
   <b>
</something>

Thanks very much for help!

Regards,
Marcel
