    Newslist with Archive

    XSLT

    I have setup the following folder structure for news:

    --News
    | |--Archive
    | |--2008
    | | |--Nov
    | | | |--Article 1
    | | | |--Article 2
    | | |--Dec
    | | | |--Article 3
    | | | |--Article 4
    | |--2009
    | | |--Jan
    | | | |--Article 5
    | | | |--Article 6
    |--Article 7
    |--Article 8

    Now, for my news page I want to get the articles in descending sort order:

    Article 8
    Article 7
    Article 6
    Article 5
    Article 4
    ...

    But I actually get something more like this:

    Article 8
    Article 6
    Article 4
    Article 2
    Article 7
    Article 5
    Article 3
    Article 1

    I'm sure I'm missing something simple but how can I achieve what I am looking for in XSLT with a single for-each or do I need to nest them?

    Thanks

    Solved with the following code which seems to achieve the desired effect.

    [code]

    ]>

    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">

    I'm glad it was of help to someone else.

    I could do with a bit of additional help though. Would anyone be able to shed any light on how to go about adding paging to this code?

    I have the following so far but the trouble is it returns the first 15 stories for each child node too.

    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">

























    [/code]

    What I really need is someway of keeping an overall count or breaking out when the threshold is reached.

    I'm sure I'm missing something simple so any help would be appreciated.

    Cheers


    Paul
