:xsl matching/sorting recursively by attribute:

sort recursively
Hello-
 I am trying to match all elements with an attribute 'task' recursively
throughout the tree. I got that part working, but I have been unable to
get it 'sorted' how I want.
I want all recursive elements with a 'task' attribute to be sorted by
the value of that attribute, and displayed.

So a simple xml file for this might look like:

<desktop id="desktop">
	<lineEdit task="3"/>
	<panel id="main">
		<panel id="toolbar">
			<button task="2">Back</button>
			<button task="1">Foward</button>
		</panel>
	</panel>
</desktop>

So, next is the xsl. This is as close I have been able to get....
Can anyone help solve this one?
Thanks a lot!
