Yet one another problem with sorting.

[OllimaX]

Hi all you fine people!

I tried to view older messages, but couldn't find a match with my present
problem.

Please see an example of the original xml.
As you can see, the order of elements is ascending by <date>.


<person>
<date>12</date>
<name>Jack</name>
<child-of name="none" />
</person>
<person>
<date>13</date>
<name>Rover</name>
<child-of name="Jack" />
</person>
<person>
<date>14</date>
<name>Dingaling</name>
<child-of name="Jill" />
</person>
<person>
<date>15</date>
<name>Jill</name>
<child-of name="none" />
</person>
<person>
<date>16</date>
<name>Wooster</name>
<child-of name="Hannibal" />
</person>
<person>
<date>17</date>
<name>Hannibal</name>
<child-of name="none" />
</person>
<person>
<date>18</date>
<name>Moses</name>
<child-of name="Jill" />
</person>



Question:
Assume that we would display elements so that children are printed after
their parent.
How could I change (by using xsl) the order of elements, so that the
result would look like the following:




<person>
<date>12</date>
<name>Jack</name>
<child-of name="none" />
</person>
<person>
<date>13</date>
<name>Rover</name>
<child-of name="Jack" />
</person>
<person>
<date>15</date>
<name>Jill</name>
<child-of name="none" />
</person>
<person>
<date>14</date>
<name>Dingaling</name>
<child-of name="Jill" />
</person>
<person>
<date>18</date>
<name>Moses</name>
<child-of name="Jill" />
</person>
<person>
<date>17</date>
<name>Hannibal</name>
<child-of name="none" />
</person>
<person>
<date>16</date>
<name>Wooster</name>
<child-of name="Hannibal" />
</person>


Thanks in advance for your advice!
