Subject: RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: Sorting and non-en_US indexes
When I said 'the spec isn't clear' I actually meant 'the spec isn't clear to me" (because I'm not so good at reading that bnf-ish notation). Looking again tho, I see this sentence: "...all of these attributes are interpreted as attribute value templates" (where 'these' has to include lang--see full text below). http://www.zvon.org/xxl/XSLTreference/W3C/xslt.html#sorting: ...The following optional attributes on xsl:sort control how the list of sort keys are sorted; the values of all of these attributes are interpreted as attribute value templates. * order specifies whether the strings should be sorted in ascending or descending order;... * lang specifies the language of the sort keys; it has the same range of values as xml:lang [XML]; if no lang value is specified, the language should be determined from the system environment * data-type specifies the data type of the strings; the following values are allowed... * case-order has the value upper-first or lower-first; this applies when data-type="text"... So I think lang on xsl:sort can be an AVT.
