I don't think I can use a regular expression as the second parameter
for substring-*
You could in XSLT2, in XSLT1 you could do:
<xsl:sort
select="translate(substring-before(@dn, '.'),'0123456789','')"
data-type="text"
order="ascending"/>
<xsl:sort
select="translate(substring-before(@dn, '.'),'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz','')"
data-type="number"
order="ascending"/>
so this sorts first on the text then on the numbers, so all teh media
ones would come before the members oones, but mefia10 will come after
media2.
