I have figured out how to sort based on an attribute value.
But so far I can only get 1 UL list, and I really need to use the
columnCount variable to make 5 <UL> lists, that we will then float left.
Is there a way to do this possibly by using the results of the first
category template and processing it in a new template?
<xsl:param name="paraCatagory"/>
<xsl:param name="altRowBGColor"/>
<xsl:template match="menu">
<xsl:apply-templates
select="descendant::category[(_at_)name=$paraCatagory]"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="category">
<xsl:variable name="modelCount" select="count(category)"/>
<xsl:variable name="columnCount" select="round($modelCount div
5) +1"/>
<ul>
<xsl:for-each select="child::category">
<xsl:sort data-type="text" order="ascending"
select="@display_name"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="position() mod 2 = 0">
<li
style="background-color:{$altRowBGColor};"><!-- Set this color in
includes/code/category_vb.asp -->
<a href="{descendant::link}">
<xsl:value-of select="@display_name"/>
</a>
</li>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<li>
<a href="{descendant::link}">
<xsl:value-of select="@display_name"/>
</a>
</li>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:for-each>
</ul>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Thank you,
Dan
