Problem sorting RSS feed by date using XSL

问题


I'm creating a website where I need to show the top 5 records from an RSS feed, and these need to be sorted by date and time.

The date fields in the RSS feed are in the following format: "Mon, 16 Feb 2009 16:02:44 GMT"

I'm having big problems getting the records to sort correctly - I've tried lots of different code examples I've seen, but none seem to sort the records correctly. The code for my XSL sheet is shown below, and the feed in question is here.

Very grateful for anyones help!!!

Thanks,

Chris.


XSL CODE:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.1" 
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:digg="http://digg.com//docs/diggrss/"
xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">
<xsl:template match="/">    
<xsl:for-each select="//*[local-name()='item'][position() < 6]">    
    <p>
        <a>
        <xsl:attribute name="href">
        <xsl:value-of select="*[local-name()='link']"/></xsl:attribute>
        <xsl:attribute name="target">
        <xsl:text>top</xsl:text>
        </xsl:attribute>
        <xsl:value-of select="*[local-name()='title']"/>
        </a>
        <br/>
    <span class="smaller"><xsl:value-of select="*[local-name()='pubDate']" disable-output-escaping="yes"/></span>
    </p>
</xsl:for-each>

The following transformation:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
 <xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>

  <xsl:variable name="vrtfMonths">
    <m name="Jan" num="01"/>
    <m name="Feb" num="02"/>
    <m name="Mar" num="03"/>
    <m name="Apr" num="04"/>
    <m name="May" num="05"/>
    <m name="Jun" num="06"/>
    <m name="Jul" num="07"/>
    <m name="Aug" num="08"/>
    <m name="Sep" num="09"/>
    <m name="Oct" num="10"/>
    <m name="Nov" num="11"/>
    <m name="Dec" num="12"/>
  </xsl:variable>

  <xsl:variable name="vMonths" select=
   "document('')/*/xsl:variable
                   [@name='vrtfMonths']/*"
   />

    <xsl:template match="channel">
      <xsl:for-each select="item">
        <xsl:sort data-type="number" order="descending" select=
        "concat(substring(pubDate,13,4),
                $vMonths[@name 
                        = 
                         substring(current()/pubDate,9,3)]/@num,

                substring(pubDate,6,2),
                translate(substring(pubDate,18,8),
                          ':',
                          ''
                          )
                )
         "/>

         <xsl:if test="not(position() > 5)">
           <xsl:copy-of select="."/>

         </xsl:if>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

when applied on the provided source XML document (too-long to list here, see the link),

produces the wanted result:

<item xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss">

An other way to get around the document restriction is to use the following:

<xsl:template name="getMonth">
    <xsl:param name="name" />
    <xsl:choose>
        <xsl:when test="$name = 'Jan'">01</xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="$name = 'Feb'">02</xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="$name = 'Mar'">03</xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="$name = 'Apr'">04</xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="$name = 'May'">05</xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="$name = 'Jun'">06</xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="$name = 'Jul'">07</xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="$name = 'Aug'">08</xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="$name = 'Sep'">09</xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="$name = 'Oct'">10</xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="$name = 'Nov'">11</xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="$name = 'Dec'">12</xsl:when>
        <xsl:otherwise>99</xsl:otherwise>
    </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

Called using

   <xsl:call-template name="getMonth">
       <xsl:with-param name="name" select="substring(./pubDate,9,3)" />
   </xsl:call-template>

It's not pretty, but at least you don't have to worry about security
