here's the snippets of my xsl that are problematic:
              <assemblePDF>
                      <xsl:apply-templates mode="assemble">
                              <xsl:sort data-type="number"
select="@seq"/>
's A bit difficult to guess the context, but I would definitely try
<xsl:apply-templates select="//chapter" mode="assemble">
<xsl:sort ... />
The problem in your snippet above would be that the 'nodelist' being sorted
actually only contains one node (chapters). After this has been sorted out,
the template for the individual chapter nodes will be applied (in document
order).
Cheers,
Andreas
