Re: [Xmltask-users] Pb with ordering the nodes during <insert>

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

I think this is a known issue and requires looking at. If I get the chance
I will dig out some details over the weekend and try and understand the
history of this.

In the meantime, can you use paste to paste the nodes somewhere
temporarily (in the reverse order), then cut again and paste into the
final destination. I'm guessing they should reverse again and thus end up
in the right order ?!
