You can use XSL to sort XML nodes before processing

Here's some sample code

sort.xslt

<table border="1">
<xsl:for each select="servlet">


<xsl:sort select="servlet_name" data_type="text"/>

<tr>
<td>
<xsl:apply-templates>
</td>
</tr>
</table>


try this

Subject:  urgent, help on sorting records in xml?



hi fellow developers,

can anyone give me some ideas on how to sort records in xml?  perhaps a sample
code would do, i need this urgently, i'm using jdom as my back-end.

appreciate if anyone could shed some light on this........

thanks for any help and suggestions.

ced.

for example in this xml file, how do i sort it by the servlet name:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<web-app>
    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>
            snoop
        </servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>
            SnoopServlet
        </servlet-class>
    </servlet>

    <servlet>
    <servlet-name>
        login
    </servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>
        LoginServlet
    </servlet-class>
    </servlet>

    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>
            file
        </servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>
            ViewFile
        </servlet-class>
        </servlet>


</web-app>
