[xsl] Selecting Maximum Values

["David B. Bitton" <david at codenoevil dot com>]

I'm doing this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";>

	<xsl:template match="/FieldMapLists">

		<xsl:for-each select="FieldMapList">
			<xsl:sort data-type="number" order="descending" select="sum(StartPos | Size)"/>
				
				<xsl:choose>
					<xsl:when test="position() = 1">
	
						<xsl:value-of select="StartPos + Size"/><br/>
	
					</xsl:when>
				</xsl:choose>
			
		</xsl:for-each>
	
	</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

I was wondering if there was a simplier way, or is this the way to do it.  I'm never sure if I'm doing it the "right"
way. :)
