Hi Everyone, im new to the forum, i like umbraco a lot, and im trying to use it in every single proyect that i have

Now, i have a big question about what is the best way to aproach sort functions using xslt

i have a front page where all the info for birthdays in my intranet is showed with name, month and day, but i just can find a way to sort the output of the macro in my frontpage.

this is the code of the xlst.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp "&#x00A0;"> ]>
<xsl:stylesheet 
  version="1.0" 
  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" 
  xmlns:msxml="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"

  exclude-result-prefixes="msxml umbraco.library Exslt.ExsltCommon Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes Exslt.ExsltMath Exslt.ExsltRegularExpressions Exslt.ExsltStrings Exslt.ExsltSets ">

<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="no"/>

<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>

<!-- update this variable on how deep your site map should be -->
<xsl:variable name="maxLevelForSitemap" select="6"/>
    
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:call-template name="drawNodes">  
  <xsl:with-param name="parent" select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::* [@isDoc and @level=1]"/>
  
</xsl:call-template>  
</xsl:template>
    
   
    
<xsl:template name="drawNodes">
<xsl:param name="parent"/> 
  <xsl:if test="umbraco.library:IsProtected($parent/@id, $parent/@path) = 0 or (umbraco.library:IsProtected($parent/@id, $parent/@path) = 1 and umbraco.library:IsLoggedOn() = 1)">
    <xsl:for-each select="$parent/*[@isDoc and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1' and @level &lt;= $maxLevelForSitemap]"> 
      
      <!--<xsl:value-of select="name(./*[@isDoc])"/><br/>-->
      
      <xsl:sort select="birthdayEY" order="descending"/>
      
      <xsl:if test="@template = 1165"> <!-- Fix to all folders with template id -->
        
        
        <xsl:variable name="DateToday" select="umbraco.library:CurrentDate()"/>
        
        <xsl:if test="umbraco.library:FormatDateTime($DateToday, 'MMMM') = umbraco.library:FormatDateTime(birthdayEY, 'MMMM') ">

        <tr>
        <td>  
          <span style="color:#747170"> <xsl:value-of select="nameEY"/></span>
        </td>
        <td>  
           <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:FormatDateTime(birthdayEY, 'MMMM d')"/>
        </td>
        </tr>
        
        </xsl:if>
      
      </xsl:if> 
      
 
      <xsl:if test="count(./* [@isDoc and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1' and @level &lt;= $maxLevelForSitemap]) &gt; 0">   

        <xsl:call-template name="drawNodes">    
          <xsl:with-param name="parent" select="."/>    
        </xsl:call-template>
        
      </xsl:if> 

    </xsl:for-each>

  </xsl:if>
</xsl:template>    
    
</xsl:stylesheet>

and this is a picture of the output content in the front page
