Hello
i have this problem, when i try to sort elements which are comming from
external files.
the situation is as follows:
i have a masterfile.xml which contains multiple tags like the following:
<taxpayer file="A004.xml" id="A004"/>
the file reference links to an XML file which contains all the individuals
data for example:
<taxpayer id="A004">
<name>
<family>Random_1</family>
<given>Made_Uo_Dude</given>
</name>
</taxpayer>
i have no trouble getting the information out of the multiple Xml files
using the following code:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<alpha_list>
<xsl:apply-templates select="list"/>
</alpha_list>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="taxpayer">
<xsl:variable name="taxfile">
<xsl:value-of select="@file"></xsl:value-of>
</xsl:variable>
<person>
<xsl:apply-templates><xsl:sort data-type="text"
select="/name"/></xsl:apply-templates>
<xsl:apply-templates select="document(concat($taxfile,''))//family"/>
</person>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
just wondering if any1 has any pointers/solutions to this sorting of remote
data :\
thanks
