Re: complicated sort problem

fileX.xml:

<document>
    <date>20071805101800</date>(yyyymmddhhmmss)
   <url>folderX/foldery/</url>
    <other tags that aren't to interest>
</document>

I know the shorter solution would be to have a date attribute to the <list> xml file like <file date="2007...">file1.xml</file> 

But it's a little more complicated than that, I can't really put the data as an attribute so I need to do it with the xml-s structured like that.
10x. Cheers

The short answer is: Yes.

A more specific solution with code could be produced, once the structure of the

       file<N>.xml

files is known.
