Sort by variable

[Dan Demidoff]

Hi All.

Is it way to sort output tree by variable?

The xsl:

<xsl:variable name="Sales" select="Volume * Price"/>
<xsl:sort select="$Sales"/>

Parser reports: "Variable $Sales is not defined" and it is right

But how to solve the problem if it's possible?

Thanx.

Why do you need a variable, can't you simply use
<xsl:sort select="Volume * Price" />
?

I can't because Volume and Price are average values calculated with
grouping by several fields.
