RE: [xsl] sorting using a precalculated value

---

Nice.

I did not think about doing it this way.

I think I will use the temporary tree solution anyway because I need to do
this in several contexts, so I'd better navigate into this temporary tree. I
will try to put a few keys here and there at the same time to ease my job of
grouping as well.

Thanks for your input Chris.
