Re: Order by with XSL

<xsl:for-each.....>
<xsl:sort data-type="text" select="./ammlegal" order="ascending"/>
</xsl:for-each>

Im not too sure if thats too symplistic for your query though.
But for a given set of data that will sort alphabetically ascending.
If you want a specific order you can create a sort.xml file like :

And do something like

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<sort>
 <x order="1">BBBBBBr</x>
 <x order="2">AAAAAr</x>
 <x order="3">CCCCC</x>
</sort>

 <xsl:sort data-type="number"
select="document('sort.xml')/sort/x[.=current()/./ammegal]/@order"
order="ascending"/>
