Use this template <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="html" indent="yes" /> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:for-each select="./Root/Elem"> <xsl:sort select="substring-after(@val,'A')" data-type="number"/> <xsl:value-of select="./@val"/> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Hope this helps you -----Original Message----- From: Hugh Dixon [mailto:hugh.dixon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, May 09, 2003 10:37 AM To: XSL-List@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Sorting alpha numeric values I have a data set: <Root> <Elem val = "A1"/> <Elem val = "A2"/> <Elem val = "A21"/> <Elem val = "A3"/> </Root> And a template: <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:for-each select="./Root/Elem"> <xsl:sort select="@val"/> <xsl:value-of select="./@val"/> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> I was hoping to sort the Elems into A1 A2 A3 A21 But I cannot get a hybrid alpha/numeric sort happening. Is there some setting I'm missing, or could someone suggest how I can do this. The ability to create a custom routine on which to compare the values would be handy, although I suspect the performance could be an issue. Thanks in Advance!!
