RE: Sorting the complete xml file

2005-12-09 11:25:20
The serializer decides in what order to output the attributes of >an element, 
there is nothing
you can do in XSLT to influence this.

What is this serializer? Is the implememtation of the serializer defined by 
W3C? Does it guaranty
that the order will always be the same, every time it is ran? My ultimate goal 
is to compare 2 xml
files. So it doesn't really matter if I can't sort the attributes.

From an XML file, what can we sort?(Node name?, Node value?, etc). My idea is 
to sort from the
left side of the tag to the right side, like sorting nodes in a tree level by 
level until you
reach the leaf node. I was hoping that it would be easier to go with XSL( Since 
it is designed for
XML ) than to bang my head in C++.

How to reply to the mailing list so that it is nested to the correct person? I 
am using YahooMail
to reply. I only have control over the "TO" & "Subject" fields.
Currently, what I am doing is:
TO: xsl-list(_at_)lists(_dot_)mulberrytech(_dot_)com
Subject: RE:[xsl] + "subject line"


thanx!
