[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Translate then sort
 This is more of a program flow problem than an XSLT problem but it might have
an XSL solution that I haven't discovered.
This stylesheet has an external ASP program that sends the $searchfield,
$sortby, $searchtext, and $search-by-number parameters from another
stylesheet. The $searchtext parameter is translated by "variable" statements
(not shown) into $ProperText, $UCASETEXT, and $lcasetext.
The first two sort/search templates are called by the last template and send
their output to the "resulttable" template.
The problem I have is the sort is executed after each "for-each" search in the
"searchrecords" template and if records are located by one of the subsequent
"for-each" searches then the search output is not sorted as a whole.
How can I create an all inclusive routine that will perform one search for all
the records found by all three "for-each" routines in the "searchrecords"
template? Or is there a better way to perform my case translation in XSLT
1.0?

XML File Structure:
(Data is purposely out of order to test the "numbersearch" template sort)
<allrecords>
<record>
<field1>DATA 1</field1>
<field2>Data 3</field2>
<field3>data 2</field3>
<field4>Data 4</field4>
</record>
</allrecords>
