Ken,
IMHO, XSLT is a really bad option for what you are asking. JavaScript is
much better for sorting tables based on the column type, since XSLT is
an overhead and does not have a Date type.
You can find a JavaScript Implementation of a table sorter and a use
sample attached. You can use it to sort based on date (various formats),
numbers etc. Sorry for the poor documentation (and the example in Greek
;-) but I was in a real hurry... you just got written permission to do
whatever with it. I'll probably group this script with some other stuff
and package it under the GPL or something when I find some time.
If you still want a crossbrowser XSLT API for javascript, I can email
you something I'm working on (stable code, no errors or bugs) when I get
home (in a day or two). Note however, that the XSLT interfaces for
Mozilla/Netscape are not stable, meaning they'll probably change in a
future release.
Cheers,
Manos
