RE: Positions

Tom,

I need the list in the following order because it has been requested in that
manner:
ARABIC
CHINESE
TABLE
TABLEAU
CUADRO

As opposed to:

ARABIC
CHINESE
TABLE
CUADRO
TABLEAU

Thanks.

Tanzila

Hi Tanz,

><xsl:if test="./@lang='EN'">
>                     <xsl:value-of
>select="preceding-sibling::.[@name='number']"/>
>         </xsl:if>

The problem here is the . :preceding-sibling is already based on where you
currently are. Instead you need
"preceding-sibling::literal[@name='number']", or since you're using
value-of, "preceding-sibling::*[@name='number']".

The first way gets you the first preceding sibling you want, the second way
gets all of them with 'number' but value-of will only treat the first one.

>Problem 1: I need the positions of "CUADRO" and "TABLEAU" to be reversed

Porqué - I mean, pourquoi?
