Sorting XML without XSLT

[Jawa]

I am sorting XML in a SQL data base and using GetContent.XmlFeed[getcontent.currentrow].contentdata.XmlChildren[1].date.XmlText as my retrieval method. Everyhting is working fine however, in some cases I can not use XSLT because of some formatting limitations (actually client peculiarities).

Can anyone lend some help in explaining how I may sort this without XSLT?

My page looks like this so far:


<table cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; width=&quot;100%&quot;>
<cfloop query=&quot;getcontent&quot;>
<cfif GetContent.XmlFeed[getcontent.currentrow].contentdata.XmlChildren[1].live.XmlText eq &quot;yes&quot; OR url.status eq &quot;live&quot;>
<tr>
<td valign=&quot;top&quot; nowrap>#DateFormat(XmlUnFormat(GetContent.XmlFeed[getcontent.currentrow].contentdata.XmlChildren[1].date.XmlText), 'MMMM DD, YYYY')#</td>
<td valign=&quot;top&quot;><a href=&quot;/index.cfm/page/#getcontent.label#.htm&quot;>#Ucase(XmlUnFormat(GetContent.XmlFeed[getcontent.currentrow].contentdata.XmlChildren[1].common.label.XmlText))#</a><br> <br></td>
</tr>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
</table>


It is working dandy, however, is there anyway I can sort this stuff (alpha, date, etc?) without XSLT?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!
