Hi guys,

I'd like to sort my news items by date. What's the best way to do this?

Here's my code:

version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
DOCTYPE xsl:Stylesheet [
  ENTITY nbsp " ">
]>
<xsl:stylesheet
  version="1.0"
  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  xmlns:msxml="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
  xmlns:umbraco.library="urn:umbraco.library"
  exclude-result-prefixes="msxml umbraco.library">

   
  <xsl:include href="../xslt/LangLibTurkey.xslt" /> 

  <xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

  <xsl:param name="currentPage"/>

  <xsl:template match="/">

    <xsl:variable name="startingContentNode" select="10285"/>
    <xsl:variable name ="childNodes" select = "$currentPage//*[@isDoc][@id = $startingContentNode]/*[@isDoc]" />


    <xsl:if test="$currentPage/@id='10250'">
      <div class="newsArticle">
        <xsl:apply-templates select = "$childNodes">
        xsl:apply-templates>
      div>
    xsl:if>

  xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match = "*">
    <xsl:variable name ="NewsItemDate" select = "NewsItemDate" />


    <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:FormatDateTime($NewsItemDate, 'd MMMM, yyyy')"/>

    <div class="articleHeader">
      <xsl:value-of select="*[name() = concat('NewsItemTitle',$flang)]" disable-output-escaping="yes" />
    div>

    <div class="articleIntro">

      <xsl:value-of select="*[name() = concat('NewsDescription',$flang)]" disable-output-escaping="yes" />
      <br/>
      <xsl:variable name="pdfYes" select="string-length(*[name() = concat('LinkPdf',$flang)])" />

      <xsl:choose>

        <xsl:when test="$pdfYes >0">

          <xsl:variable name = "pdfPath" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia(*[name() = concat('LinkPdf',$flang)], 0)/umbracoFile" />

          <xsl:choose>
            <xsl:when test="$flang = '_Tk'">
              <a href="{$pdfPath}" target="_blank">
                Devamn oku (PDF)...<img src="../../images/RESGroup/buttons/morearrow.gif" alt="more" width="11" height="9" border="0" align="baseline"/>
              a>
            xsl:when>
            <xsl:otherwise>
              <a href="{$pdfPath}" target="_blank">
                Read More (PDF)...<img src="../../images/RESGroup/buttons/morearrow.gif" alt="more" width="11" height="9" border="0" align="baseline"/>
              a>
            xsl:otherwise>
          xsl:choose>
          
          
          
          
          <br/>
        xsl:when>
      xsl:choose>

    div>

  xsl:template>

xsl:stylesheet>
