Hi,
Actually, your stylesheet does work. When I downloaded your blog-sort.xsl
and blog.xml files, and applied the stylesheet with xsltproc:
xsltproc -o sorted.xml blog-sort.xsl blog.xml
I got a correctly sorted output, with the dates in this order in
sorted.xml:
<date>2005-01-01</date>
<date>2005-07-07</date>
<date>2005-08-27</date>

I don't understand why it didn't work for you.

Subject: [docbook-apps] sorting Docbook
Hi,
trying to switch my blog to Docbook (as source, of course HTML/Atom is to
be produced via XSLT), and I got stuck with one (I am afraid, rather
elementary) problem with XSLT. I have compiled all my blogs into one XML
file (it is not valid Docbook yet; http://www.ceplovi.cz/matej/blogdata/
blog.xml) and then tried to sort the entries according to their info/date
element using my own variant (http://www.ceplovi.cz/matej/blogdata/blog-
sort.xsl) of sorting XSLT stylesheet from http://www.xml.com/pub/
a/2002/07/03/transform.html However, xsltproc when running over the
document (and it is not sorted, for example entry "Mannheim’s Paradox" is
out of order) does exactly nothing (checked with diff).
I am doing probably some really stupid mistake, but I cannot find for the
world, what's that.
Can anybody help me, please?
Thanks,
Matej
