I made a script to reproduce the problem. On php version 4.2.1 on windows it works fine. On php version 4.3.0 on linux it will hang. With kind regards, Paul van Gils <?php $xml="<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"ISO-8859-1\"?>". "<articlelist>". "<articles>". "<article>". "<text1>Hello world!</text1>". "<number></number>".

If not, please provide sample files. If they're long, post a url where they can be downloaded. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-09 07:50:56] p.vangils@mycoweb.nl I used <xsl: sort select="number"> in my xsl file. I used an empty tag <number></number> in my xml file. I understand that sorting on an empty xml tag is very difficult but i didn't expect the xslt_process function to hang. Of course where <number></number> is filled in everything works fine. It should be better to give an error or place the empty tags in the beginning or in the end. Hangup cost server performance i think.
