RE: [xsl] Correctly sorting ID's

Hi Eliot,

Thanks for the response; I was hoping on pure XSLT solution, so I'm
looking into using the exslt template you mentioned, although I'm still
a little lost as to what I'll do with the resulting node-sets. Thanks.

I'm sure it's possible to do something with pure XSLT or EXSLT (e.g., 
using the tokenization extension), but it would probably be easier to 
write a custom collator (at least using Saxon). Then you could easily 
implement your collation semantics in Java.

Cheers,

E.
