Hi Peter
I've just tried rearranging the attributes and the processor (in my case,
Xalan/Xerces) does seem to respect the order..
e.g.
<xsl:attribute name="width">580</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="cellpadding">0</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="cellspacing">0</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="border">0</xsl:attribute>
becomes...
<table width="580" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
I can't speak for other processors, but this works for me. I don't know what
setup Meltem is using, but it would be interesting to see if this behaviour
is consistent across implementations.
cheers
Andy

It was my experience that processors that change the order tend to
alphabetize the attributes, or, if the processor happens to store the
attributes in a hash-map of some kind, seemingly random order. Have you
tried if rearranging the attribute-set has the same effect in the output?
