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()) and $outp">
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
cheers,

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?
