RE: re-ordering nodes/partial sort

Hi David

Thanks for the answer(s). It is not a straighforward sort. Looking at in
terms of priority:

Bed & Breakfast		--> priority 1
Bed & Breakfast (child)	--> priority 2
Half Board				--> priority 3
Half Board (child)		--> priority 4
Full Board				--> priority 5
Full Board (child)		--> priority 6

All other <supp> nodes are output before the priority ones above (in
document order).

Kind regards.
