[=?Utf-8?B?SWxsdXN0cmlz?=]

I'm hoping someone can help me with what looks like a very simple problem. My

someone inspect my XSLT please? TIA!!

Hi,

You're sorting the languages within a market, which since there is only one
per market, is not doing much. Try moving the sort to within
<xsl:apply-templates select="Market"/earlier on. Then sort on @name or
Language/@name depending on which name you're trying to sort on.

Hope that helps!
