RE: Sorting, but then splitting into 5 <ul> columns

Where would one look to for a XSLT processor that runs on Windows 2003
and is XSLT 2.0 ready?

And of whether, if using XSLT 1.0, pipelining two stylesheets is
possible, or whether we are really baking bread with our elbows. (It has
been done.)

Or to be more specific: no, it isn't possible in XSLT 1.0 to process the
results of one template with another, without using features or
techniques devised to do so. (These include the extension function and
pipelining stylesheets. For reasons lost in the depths of history, XSLT
1.0 was deliberately designed without this capability
unassisted.) But it would be possible to get your desired output using
other approaches.

Cheers,
Wendell
