Re: can't get xsl:sort to work

<xsl:for-each select="//complexarticle |
//simplearticle | //dummyarticle">
<xsl:sort select="@entry">
<tr valign="top">
<td><xsl:value-of select="@id"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="@entry"/></td>
<td><xsl:variable name="x" select="count(.//xref)"/>
<xsl:for-each select=".//xref">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
<xsl:if test="position() &lt; $x">
<br/>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</td>
</tr>
</xsl:sort>
</xsl:for-each>

but when i run the transformation (i'm using
xmlspy) i get and error "Expected select attribute or
non empty content not both" but i have a select
attribute.

The error message says it all.
You need:
<xsl:sort select="@entry"/>
you don't have to encapsulate the whole loop with this element;-)
