RE: [xsl] Connecting the Source and Destination fields

Hi Andrew, 
Thanks for the reply
But I have some issues ! 

What if I have some ting like this ? 

<connection destination="event.3" source="event.0"/> 
<connection destination="event.1" source="event.2"/> 
<connection destination="event.2" source="event.3"/> 
<connection destination="event.4" source="event.1"/>

By using 

<xsl:sort select="@source"/>

For understanding my input will change to  :

<connection destination="event.3" source="event.0"/> 
<connection destination="event.4" source="event.1"/>
<connection destination="event.1" source="event.2"/> 
<connection destination="event.2" source="event.3"/> 

My output will be 
        event.0 -> event.3 -> event.4 -> event.1 -> event.2


But I am expecting 

        event.0 -> event.3 -> event.2 -> event.1 -> event.4
        

Regards,
Yaswanth

Hi All,

I am trying to arrange the chain of event connections by mapping the
Source
and Destination of each Connection.

When my XML file is something like this:

<connection destination="event.1"source="event.0"/>
<connection destination="event.2" source="event.1"/>
<connection destination="event.3" source="event.2"/>
<connection destination="event.4" source="event.3"/>

// Ordered
// Please note that The Destination Value of any node is equal to the
Source
value of the next Node

Here I am taking the 'source' value from the first 'connection' and by
keep
on appending the 'destination' value of all the 'connection's I get the
Output as:


event.0 -> event.1 -> event.2 -> event.3 -> event.4

Problem:

Now my XML input file is changed to some thing like this :

<connection destination="event.1" source="event.0"/>
<connection destination="event.3" source="event.2"/>
<connection destination="event.2" source="event.1"/>
<connection destination="event.4" source="event.3"/>

// Unordered
// Please note that The Destination Value of any node is not always equal
to
the Source value of the next Node

If I process this XML file in the same way I did the earlier one I will
get
output as:

event.0 -> event.1 -> event.3 -> event.2 -> event.4

Here event.1's destination is event.2 only but in the Output I am having
event.3 as the destination.
event.2's destination is event.3 only but in the Output I am having
event.4
as the destination.
event.3's destination is event.4 only but in the Output I am having
event.2
as the destination.

I know this is happening because of the Logic I used in arranging these
things..

Can I get some push on how to arrange these things in Order?!

Sort them :

<xsl:sort select="@source"/>

?
