Hi Vandna,
Your XML sample was huge, try to create a minimal testing set, that's
easier to make us understand the problem.
You seem to want a modified copy template or something. The XSL code you
showed, does not do much, except running the default template (which, in
this case, outputs only text).
This what you can use for sorting your XML, it will output all
PIPTransaction elements, starting with 'Cancel' and ending with the ones
that do not have that attribute at all:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0" xmlns:pd="http://www.oeb.gov.on.ca"
exclude-result-prefixes="pd">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates select="pd:PIPEDocument/pd:PIPTransaction" >
<xsl:sort select="pd:Usage[(_at_)UsagePurpose = 'Cancel']"
order="descending"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="@* | node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()" />
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Cheers,

I need help sorting XML file. This is the XSLT I am using. I am trying to sort the
PIPTransaction based on Usage tag, UsagePurpose. UsagePurpose="Cancel"
transaction should be at the starting of the file and than rest of the transaction.
Thanks In advance.
