Re: Sorting times in xslt

Hi Matthew,

Here's how to do it:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
  <xsl:template match="/times">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:apply-templates  select="time">
        <xsl:sort data-type="number"
select="substring-before(@value,':')"/>
	<xsl:sort data-type="number" select="substring-after(@value,':')"/>
      </xsl:apply-templates>
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>
  <xsl:template match="/ | @* | node()">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:apply-templates  select="@* | node()"/>
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>
  
</xsl:stylesheet>
