Play the video Subject: How do I not ignore whitespace when sorting? From: "Mark Wilson" <drmark@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 18 Dec 2005 10:29:12 -0500 Thanks for all the help with my previous question. This is my first week with XSLT, so please forgive my not knowing where to look. I have tracked down many comments on sorting, but failed to find one to answer the following. I am trying to sort a library subject catalog. I finally realized that the default <xsl:sort> was ignoring whitespace within the value of the element. The order I get is: Catalogs. Austria Catalogs -- Zepplins when I what I want is: Catalogs -- Zepplins Catalogs. Austria. ( for the *space* at the end of 'catalogs ' to file before the *period* at the end of 'catalogs.' I was able to demonstrate to myself that white space is ignored when I inserted a *space within* the word 'cat alogs' and still got this result: Catalogs. Austria Cat alogs -- Zepplins Since this means that everyone would have serious problems sorting things like "Art tissue" and Artisians", I assume there must be a way. Can I, and if so how do I, tell <xsl:sort> not to ignore whitespace? Do I need a special external colation? Thanks, Mark Current Thread RE: for-each-group, (continued) thomas . maciejewski - 16 Dec 2005 17:23:25 -0000 Michael Kay - 16 Dec 2005 19:34:51 -0000 thomas . maciejewski - 16 Dec 2005 19:38:27 -0000 Michael Kay - 17 Dec 2005 00:43:32 -0000 Mark Wilson - 18 Dec 2005 15:27:44 -0000 <= Michael Kay - 18 Dec 2005 15:37:43 -0000 <- Previous Index Next -> RE: for-each-group, Michael Kay Thread RE: How do I not ignore white, Michael Kay Re: Unescaped CDATA?, Jan Eden Date RE: How do I not ignore white, Michael Kay Month
