Hi,
Sorry. My input xml which believe you are referring to as
period.xml is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<dynamicpage>
<val>Roman</val>
<val>Islamic</val>
<val>byzantine</val>
</dynamicpage>
which is the same as what you gave me.
And the xml 'xamp2.xml' where I store the timeperiods in order is as
follows:
<Timeperiods>
<entry period="middlebronze">1</entry>
<entry period="byzantine">2</entry>
<entry period="Roman">3</entry>
<entry period="Islamic">4</entry>
</Timeperiods>
I hope things will be clearer now.
cheers,
prakash

Hi,
I am not very familiar with XSLT. I tried to reproduce
the same & it didn't work(w/o much understanding).
My Basic assumption is that:
Key 'tp' should be built on 'period.xml'. Here i have
the core part of the code:
<xsl:key name="tp" match="val" use="."/>
<xsl:variable name="tps"
select="document('xamp2.xml')/Timeperiods"/>
Inside template match /dynamicpage
<xsl:for-each select="$tps/*">
<xsl:sort select="."/>
<xsl:variable name="outp"
select="key('tp', @period)"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$outp"/>
</xsl:for-each>
What does sort do here? Sorts tps values!! or Sorts
/val values?? Neither makes sense to me.
Please correct me!!!
Thanks for your inputs & valuable time.
Srinivas.

Hi,
The following stylesheet should do what you
want.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="text"></xsl:output>
<xsl:key name="tp" match="val" use="."/>
<xsl:variable name="tps"
select="document('xamp2.xml')/Timeperiods"/>
<xsl:template match="/dynamicpage">
<xsl:for-each select="$tps/*">
<xsl:sort select="."/>
<xsl:variable name="outp"
select="key('tp', @period)"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$outp"/>
<xsl:if test="not(position() = last())

Hi,
I have to perform xsl sorting based on time period
instead of regular ascii or integer based sorting.
For
ex: According to ascii, BYZANTINE comes before
MIDDLE
BRONZE. But, according to this sort(time period):
MIDDLE BRONZE comes before BYZANTINE.
My initial idea is like this. A separate xml:
'period.xml' has this period to ascii mapping.
<entry period="middlebronze">1</entry>
<entry period="byzantine">2</entry>
<entry period="Roman">3</entry>
<entry period="islamic">4</entry>
......
----------------------------------------
Now, my stylesheet should be applied to a dynamic
xml
page & should order period values occur in that
page.
<dynamicpage>
<val>Roman</val>
<val>Islamic</val>
<val> byzantine </val>
</dynamicpage>
desired output after xslt application:
byzantine, Roman, Islamic
Please help regarding how xslt should look like?
