Hi Rafael,

Because collections of nodes are *sets* in XSLT 1.0, they are
unordered by definition. But you can process the nodes in the set in a
particular order using xsl:sort when you use xsl:for-each:

  <xsl:for-each select="$var">
    <xsl:sort select="NOMBRE_FAMILIA" data-type="number" />
    ...
  </xsl:for-each>

Or when you apply templates:

  <xsl:apply-templates select="$var">
    <xsl:sort select="NOMBRE_FAMILIA" data-type="number" />
  </xsl:apply-templates>

Cheers,

Jeni
