Mike,

This will sort all children of <root> by their name()

==xml==
<root>
  <a>x</a>
  <c>x</c>
  <b>x      
          <d>x</d>
  </b>
  <z>x</z>
  <g>x</g>
</root>

==output==
<a /><b /><c /><d /><g /><z />

==xsl==
<xsl:template match="/">
  <xsl:apply-templates select="root//*">
    <xsl:sort select="name()"/>
  </xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="*">
  <xsl:copy/>
</xsl:template>

cheers
