Hi David,
Below is a modified stylesheet.. I have solved few
of the bugs you pointed. I'll be happy if you can (or
others!) analyze this new stylesheet for any defects..
This version has these changes:
1) For the attribute nodes, storing also its element's
name and storing its *element's level*(as additional
safeguard - I am not quite sure if this safeguard is
really required. If it is'nt, then this is redundant
processing and can be removed).
2) For other nodes, also storing the level of node.

i.e. adding a xsl:sort instruction in the for-each
loop. This shall solve this problem!
No you need to sort on the attribute name, not it's
value as the names
are unique. You also need to distinguish attributes
on different elemnts
so you don't want //@*
