Sort problem

I have two sort documents, and in one version I sort numbers (which works
fine), and in the other I am sorting a text value. They are the same, with
the exception of the data-type attribute not being included in the text one.
This same code used to work in earlier version of Xalan (we are using XalanJ
2.4.D1.

Any ideas what is wrong? Is this a bug?

Thanks,

Cory

-- Numeric sort that works:

  <!-- Output the fw:dataSetData element.-->
  <xsl:template match="/">
    <fw:dataSetData>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="/fw:dataSet/fw:dataSetData"/>

  <!-- Loop each row and sort.-->

This is solved now. It was a data error in my XML doc.

Thanks,
