Modifying the xPath order...

2004-03-01 02:32:00

 I have this structure in XML... 
 
 <elements>
  <element>5</element>
  <element>3</element>
  <element>6</element>
  <element>1</element>
 </elements>

 With XSL, i have...

 <xsl:for-each select="element">
  <xsl:sort select="." order="ascending" data-type="number"/>
   ...
 </xsl:for-each>

 In this way, the elements have this order...

 position() = 1 --> element = 1
 position() = 2 --> element = 3
 position() = 3 --> element = 5
 position() = 4 --> element = 6

 But ...

 preceding of element = 1 is element = 6
 preceding of element = 3 is element = 5
 preceding of element = 5 is element = null
 preceding of element = 6 is element = 3

 Then, how i know that preceding of element=3 in the order is the element = 1?
¿? 
 
 How i calculate the acumulated total?¿? (for the element = 5 the total 
acumulated is 1 + 3 + 5 ...)

 Thanks!!!
