Subject:  Selecting distinct values based on an attribute


I have the following xml

<facilities facilitytype="pub" .... />
<facilities facilitytype="pool" .... />
<facilities facilitytype="bar" .... />

How can i Select all the facilitytype and order them
so that regardless of what order I get them in it will
always look the same (order is arbitrary)

all help is much appreciated.

regards,
Adam
