Steve,
This probably belongs on an XML/XSLT discussion list, but, you can easily do
this when processing an XML document using the XSL transformation language
(XSLT). For an example, look at this online material that discusses the
xsl:sort element and how to use it to sort nodes in your output XML document
from an XSL transformation:
http://metalab.unc.edu/xml/books/bible/updates/14.html#Sorting
If you are not familiar with XSLT at all, you can start with this online
source as an introduction. It is a pretty good one for that purpose.
Hope this helps,
Mike Van Riper
