RE: Grooping and Sorting problem

Hi,

	thanks for the answer but the problem is: i want to sort all
elements
like you suggest and i want to make a table with 5 rows and n column. To do
this
i try this:


	<xsl:for-each select="test" >
    
		<xsl:sort select="@number" data-type ="number"/>    
    
		<xsl:if test="position() mod 5 = 1">
    
			<tr>
			<xsl:for-each select="self::test |
following-sibling::test[position() &lt; 5]">
				<td><xsl:apply-templates/><xsl:value-of
select="@number"/></td>
			</xsl:for-each>
			</tr>
	          
		</xsl:if>
      
	</xsl:for-each>

But the problems is the first element is sorted but the 
	following-sibling::test[position() &lt; 5]"
is not sorted... 

So how can i, first sort all element and after grooping it
to make a table with 5 rows and n column?

Thanks a lot!

Fred

Hi Frédéric,

To sort your elements you can use the xsl:sort element:

For example:

<xsl:for-each select="root/test">
               <xsl:sort
                   select="./@number"
                   data-type="number"
                   order="ascending"
               />
.......
</xsl:for-each>

Regards

Tanzila
