Re:  Problems calling template from within sorted <xsl:
How would I sort into a node-set? Can you provide a
simple example?

you go
<xsl:variable name="x">
  <xsl:apply-templates select="/"> 
 <!-- or wherever else you want to start -->
</xsl:variable>

Now in XSLT 1.1 or 2.0 you'd be able to go

<xsl:apply-templates select="$x"/>

and apply templates tp $x which is effectively a new document with
whatever nodes you constructed in the first apply templates.

However XSLT 1.0 decided to forbit applying templates to result tree
variables, so you need to convert it back to a node set,


<xsl:apply-templates select="xx:node-set($x)"/>

where xx: is the prefix for the xalan extension namespace 9which I don't
have the docs for to hand, but I expect someone on this list will
provide:-)
