Re: [xsl] Sorting using more than value

Wendell, thanks for your reply - much appreciated. 

I made the following change to the 
template:<xsl:for-each-groupselect="//indexterm"group-by="(@term.entry,text()[1])">

<xsl:sortselect="upper-case(current-grouping-key())"/>
<divclass="index">
<span>
<xsl:value-ofselect="current-grouping-key()"/>
<xsl:text> - </xsl:text> 
</span>
</div>
</xsl:for-each-group>
The transformation seems to find both the term.entry attribute and the 
indexterm 
element content. Here is an example of the output:<div
<divclass="index"><span>weblink element - </span></div> 
<divclass="index"><span>X title - </span></div> <!-- This is the term.entry for 
the indexterm that contains 'title'. -->
<divclass="index"><span>Y topic - </span></div> <!-- This is the term.entry for 
the indexterm that contains 'topic'. -->class="index"><span>Authentic - 
</span></div>
<divclass="index"><span>elements - </span></div>
<divclass="index"><span>image element - </span></div>
<divclass="index"><span>title - </span></div>
<divclass="index"><span>topic - </span></div>
<divclass="index"><span>W elements - </span></div><!-- This is the term.entry 
for the indexterm that contains 'elements'. -->


The elements seem to output twice - once for the element and once for the 
attribute. What change would be needed for the template to output only the 
element or the attribute and not both?

Thanks
Susan

Susan,

I am having problems in sorting using one of two possible values.I have a

to sort the index using one of two possible values. If the indexterm doesn't 
contain a term.entry attribute, it should sort using the content of the 
indexterm element. If the indexterm element contains a term.entry attribute, 
then it should sort using the value of the term.entry attribute.

indexterm element (when there is no term.entry element) or the term.entry 
attribute for the indexterm element (if present)?
