[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] xsl:sort now working under unix
 thanks for your replies. let me clarify. I have played with the sort to sort by name under "text" mode and age under "number" mode. the code snippet I sent you was half-way between those two experiments. the results of these tests is that I get no sorting at all. the groups are posted to the html in the order in which they exist in the xml file. this is a copy of the resulting html file ********************************************************* TEST of SORT should be listed in descending order by age (oldest to youngest) 30 Sylvia 39 Mariana *********************************************************
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="/"> <html> <head></head> <body> <h1> TEST of SORT</h1> <p>should be listed in descending order by age (oldest to youngest)</p> <xsl:for-each select="addressbook">
<!--descending or ascending (default) -->
<xsl:sort select="age" data-type="number" order="descending"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:for-each>
</body>
</html></xsl:template> <xsl:template match="address"> <p> <xsl:value-of select="age"/> <xsl:text> </xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="name"/> <xsl:value-of select="$newline"/> </p> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> I appreciate your help. would you mind replying directly to me as well as the list since I am diagest mode. cheers, sylvia
