Hi,
I have a series of nested steps that I want to reverse sort at each level.
Here is what I am starting with:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<steps>
<step>A
<step>(1)</step>
<step>(2)
<step>(a)</step>
<step>(b)</step>
<step>(c)</step>
</step>
<step>(3)</step>
</step>
<step>B</step>
<step>C</step>
</steps>
This is what I want to get:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<steps>
<step>C</step>
<step>B</step>
<step>A
<step>(3)</step>
<step>(2)
<step>(c)</step>
<step>(b)</step>
<step>(a)</step>
<step>(1)</step>
</step>
</step>
</steps>
My steps could be nested up to five levels, so I tried to call a template
recursively, but it is not giving me exactly what I want. Here is my
stylesheet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/steps">
<xsl:call-template name="sort-steps"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="sort-steps">
<xsl:for-each select="step">
<xsl:sort order="descending"/>
<xsl:copy><xsl:value-of select="."/></xsl:copy>
<xsl:call-template name="sort-steps"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Thank you in advance.
Rick
