Sort in a particular way

JohnBampton · May 14th, 2009, 03:11 AM

I have xml like this, this is just a small example

Code:

<classdetail>
<Semester>Fall</Semester>
<Semester>spring</Semester>
<Semester>summer</Semester>
</classdetail>

And I want to sort it with XSLT so that it is output Spring followed by Summer then Fall.

how would I perform this?

In XSLT 2.0:

Code:

<xsl:sort select="index-of('spring', 'summer', 'fall'), semester)"/>

In 1.0

Code:

<xsl:sort select="translate(substring(semester,2,1), 'pua', 'abc')"/>
