RE: Date Range Search XML using XSLT

I have done this, though in a very round-about fashion. I believe you will
display within a for-each loop.
So you code would look something like this
<xsl:for-each select="x">
Display whatever data you want to show.
</xsl:for-each> 

You can do this using extension function , add an if condition like the
following(assuming y is the date field)

<xsl:for-each select="x">
<xsl:if
test="user:getDateinNumberFormat(y)<user:getDateinNumberFormat(date1) and
user:getDateinNumberFormat(y)>user:getDateinNumberFormat(date2)">
Display whatever data you want to show.
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>

the extension function "getDateinNumberFormat" will take in the date and
then return you some number(may be number if seconds after some base time
(say 1900)). Then your problem is solved. B'cos I didnt come across any XSLT
function which can do date comparisons. If some body knows of a better way
then please suggest.
Best of Luck.
Ratul.
