Basically I'm sorting an XML document (based on the date element) and dumping the contents into another XML document using the same elements and structure.
I think you are trying too hard. Dumping the contents of a XML document is what <xsl:copy-of> is for.
Try this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:xalan="http://xml.apache.org/xslt";><xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" xalan:indent-amount="4"/>
<xsl:template match="calendar">
<calendar>
<!-- also dump calendar attributes if any -->
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="event">
<xsl:sort select="date"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</calendar>
</xsl:template><xsl:template match="event">
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:template></xsl:stylesheet>
