[xsl] Problems sorting data


Subject: [xsl] Problems sorting data

Hi,

I've created the XML below and now I need to present the data in an orderly fashion. More precisely I need to have the data sorted by the 'idstring' member. I've done some googling and this is the best I could come up with, but the data is still not sorted. The data is presented, though, so obviously I'm doing something right.
What is wrong with this sorting and what can I do to fix it?



XSLT:


<xsl:template match="report">

	<xsl:template match="contents">
	<xsl:apply-templates>
		<xsl:sort select="member[@name='idstring']"/>
	</xsl:apply-templates>
	</xsl:template>

</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="object[@type='standard']">
	<xsl:value-of select="member[@name='idstring']"/>
	<xsl:value-of select="member[@name='id']"/>
	<xsl:value-of select="member[@name='title']"/>
</xsl:template>



XML:

<report>
<contents>

	<object type="standard">
		<member name="id">
			<long>1234</long>
		</member>
		<member name="idstring">
			<string>Unique1</string>
		</member>
		<member name="title">
			<string>Temporary</string>
		</member>
	</object>

	<object type="standard">
		<member name="id">
			<long>5678</long>
		</member>
		<member name="idstring">
			<string>Unique2</string>
		</member>
		<member name="title">
			<string>Foobar</string>
		</member>
	</object>

</contents>
</report>
