Re: Sort based on attribute

["Frank Neugebauer" <neuggs at hotmail dot com>]

Shimon,

One possibility is:

<xsl:for-each select="//row">
   <xsl:sort select="@id"/>
   <xsl:value-of select="@id"/>
</xsl:for-each>

Hope this helps. Actually, it's described well in the "XSLT Programmers 
Reference" (WROX) pp. 272-277.

Regards,
Frank.
