 I'm having problems with a sort. I wish to sort some xml, and indent the result. I can do the indent, but the sorting is proving a problem. My xml will be in the format of the below, though the element names may differ per document. <xml>
<root_elem>
<item_elem>
<value1> xyz</value1>
<value2> asd </value2>
...
</item_elem>
<item_elem>
...
</item_elem>
</root_elem>I want to sort all the "item_elem" elements based on the value of the "value1" sublements. As per abovve, the names of these elements are dynamic, and this is where I am having difficulty. I.e., in another document, "root_elem", "item_elem" and "valueX" could have different names, but the structure is the very same. I need to sort the children of the root element by _their_ first child. Is there a generic way to do this ? Can the result be indented in the same operation ? Any help appreciated.
