Re: generic sort based on attribute names

I am still not getting the desired output.

<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:variable name="sortkey">
<xsl:for-each select="*">
<e>
<xsl:for-each select="@*">
<xsl:sort select="name(.)"/>
<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</e>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:for-each select="@*">
<xsl:sort select="name(.)"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:apply-templates>
<!-- the select for this sort needs to be the concatenated name-value pairs of
all the attributes sorted in alphabetical order -->
<xsl:sort select="xx:node-set($sortkey)//e[position()=count(current()/preceding-sibling::*)]"/>

		</xsl:apply-templates>
	</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

regards,
