I'm sorry... my english is very poor

 My question is... 
 
 I use a <xsl:sort> inside a <xsl:for-each> but this order (ascending) isn't 
available to use axis like (preceding:: , preceding-sibling::, etc...) 
 
 When i use this axis the order of the elements still be the order in XML 
document and i want to work with the order created with <xsl:sort> 
 
 ok?¿?
