Hi all ,
I know that the rule to sort should be immediately after <xsl:for-each >
I am in a situation where i have to read the criteria to sort from some some node in the beginning of XML
and based on which i need to make a decision to sortBY corresponding node somewhere down the line....
But as you know the following way doesnt work ...
<xsl:for-each select="somenode">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl;when test="$prevnode = 'criteriavalue' ">
<xsl:sort order="ascending" select="node_to_be_sorted"/>
</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:for-each>
Note: dont worry about syntax check on this ...
Is there a way to sneak around and get this Sorting to work based on some criteria ...Or any other work arounds, suggestions?
thanx in advance
