Re: [xsl] Sorting Nested Loops

[Joerg Heinicke <joerg dot heinicke at gmx dot de>]

Hello Tyler,

mostly it's better when you explain what your problem is...

And please provide working code - as far as possible -, so that everyone 
can test it easily. You match on leadsite/tabs, what doesn't exist in 
your example XML. And you call a template named tabcells, what doesn't 
exist in your stylesheet snippet.

But the first fact is more important ;-)

Regards,

Joerg
