I am trying to select elements based on a number in their "title" element and then return them in a specific order. I've grouped them using a key, but when I access they key and apply-templates to the nodes, they're not being returned in the order specified.sample code:\[code\]<test> <anElement> <title>001 title</title> </anElement> <anElement> <title>002 title</title> </anElement> <anElement> <title>003 title</title> </anElement> <anElement> <title>004 title</title> </anElement> <anElement> <title>005 title</title> </anElement> <anElement> <title>006 title</title> </anElement> <anElement> <title>007 title</title> </anElement> <anElement> <title>008 title</title> </anElement> <anElement> <title>009 title</title> </anElement> <anElement> <title>010 title</title> </anElement> </test>\[/code\]when transformed with:\[code\]<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"version="2.0"><xsl:strip-space elements="*"/><xsl
