RE: Sorting on numbers

Since you mention "order-by" I assume you are using the IE5 implementation,
which has not yet been updated to the official <xsl:sort> syntax.
Unfortunately there is a bug in the IE5 beta 2 release that often prevents
values from being recognized as numbers when sorting.  The final IE5 release
fixes this problem.  The numerical datatype can be set using the datatype
namespace, eg. dt:dt="float", in the source document or its Schema.
