Re: [xsl] How to sort Using Dom and SelectNodes

[Rick Taylor <taylor@xxxxxxxx>]

Karl,

This should give you what you want.

        <xsl:template match="xml">
          <xsl:apply-templates select="FLD[@order]">
            <xsl:sort select="@order" data-type="number"/>
          </xsl:apply-templates>
        </xsl:template>

        <xsl:template match="FLD">
           <xsl:value-of select="."/>
       </xsl:template>
