i use another one approach
i aggregate a some xml files in sitemap
then i reorder elements inside the final xml [layout.xsl]
and send the result for processing
<map:resource name="sitebuilder">
<map:aggregate element="site">
<map:part src="cocoon:/xml/Layout.xml"/>
<map:part src="cocoon:/xml/xHead.xml"/>
<map:part src="cocoon:/xml/xCommon.xml"/>
<map:part src="cocoon:/xml/c{../1}.xml"
label="content"/>
<map:part src="cocoon:/xml/xFoot.xml"/>
</map:aggregate>
<map:transform src="../htdocs/sitestyle/layout.xsl"/>
<map:transform src="../htdocs/core/xsl/core.xsl"/>
<map:serialize type="html"/>
</map:resource>
in layout.xml i have instruction where i want to put my elements
<site>
.
.
.
<osm:pageSettings>
<osm:copy select="common"/>
<!-- copy here the container with contentID="common"-->
</osm:pageSettings>
.
.
.
<osm:container xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xmlns:osm="http://osmosis.gr/osml/1.0";
xmlns:i18n="http://apache.org/cocoon/i18n/2.0";
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="./core/schema/generated.xsd"
contentID="common">
<osm:commonSettings
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xmlns:osm="http://osmosis.gr/osml/1.0";>
<osm:stylesheet>
<osm:css>themes/osml_main_size.css</osm:css>
<osm:css>themes/osml_main_layout.css</osm:css>
<osm:css>themes/osml_main_color.css</osm:css>
</osm:stylesheet>
</osm:commonSettings>
</osm:container>
</site>
and the xsl that reorder my xml
..
..
<xsl:template match="osm:copy">
<xsl:call-template name="getContent">
<xsl:with-param name="select" select="@select"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>
..
..
<xsl:template name="getContent">
<xsl:param name="select"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//osm:container[@contentID=$select]"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="node()|@*" priority="-1">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
hope all this can help you
