Hello all,
I'm curious what possible solutions you folks might have for sorting
times in XSLT.
e.g.
I have the following xml:
<times>
<time value="10:45"/>
<time value="1:15"/>
<time value="9:43"/>
<time value="35:27"/>
<time value="20:48"/>
</times>
and I wish to sort it by the value attribute, thus generating the
following:
<times>
<time value="1:15"/>
<time value="9:43"/>
<time value="10:45"/>
<time value="20:48"/>
<time value="35:27"/>
</times>
The problem is that due to the colons the value is evaluated as a
string, not a number and thus produces:
<times>
<time value="1:15"/>
<time value="10:45"/>
<time value="9:43"/>
<time value="20:48"/>
<time value="35:27"/>
</times>
Note the 10:45 is out of place. Any ideas?
