I have a template that draws a tree from a remote RDF datasource.  When I click
the column to sort the data numeric data is getting sorted alphabetically.  I
tried using the rdf:datatype flag on the literal, but it did nothing.  Here is a
sample of the data I am using

<RDF:li>
        <RDF:Description>
                <row:ticketId>F3741</row:ticketId>
                <row:name>0526.sunpositions.txt</row:name>
                <row:description></row:description>
                <row:routeKey></row:routeKey>
                <row:filePath></row:filePath>
                <row:submitLogin></row:submitLogin>
                <row:submitDate>2004-11-01 16:42:34.676</row:submitDate>
                <row:submitIP></row:submitIP>
                <row:uploadTime></row:uploadTime>
                <row:size
rdf:datatype="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#int">20</row:size>
                <row:inFileType></row:inFileType>
        </RDF:Description>
</RDF:li>



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
sort the data on a numeric column. 
Actual Results:  
data is sorted alphabetically

100
20
500



Expected Results:  
20 
100
500

I can attach my sample template and data file if it would help.  If this is not
a bug, I apologize.

I noticed on xulplanet, in their RDF guide that Mozilla does not follow the new datatype standards, but 
instead uses their own.. So in accordance with the information found in this link (http://xulplanet.com/
tutorials/mozsdk/rdfresources.php), I changed my rdf file to look like the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<RDF:RDF xmlns:RDF="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"
        xmlns:NC="http://home.netscape.com/NC-rdf#"
        xmlns:row="http://dummy/rdf#">

<RDF:Bag about="urn:data:row">
<RDF:li>
        <RDF:Description>
                <row:ticketId>F3740</row:ticketId>
                <row:name>038C74757.MS8005.549254.20040527.144035.5988.txt</row:name>
                <row:description></row:description>
                <row:routeKey></row:routeKey>
                <row:filePath></row:filePath>
                <row:submitLogin></row:submitLogin>
                <row:submitDate>2004-11-01 16:39:35.9</row:submitDate>
                <row:submitIP></row:submitIP>
                <row:uploadTime></row:uploadTime>
                <row:size NC:parseType="Integer">10</row:size>
                <row:inFileType></row:inFileType>
        </RDF:Description>
</RDF:li>

I still get the incorrect sort behavoir

Could you possible post your test case xul and rdf file.  I have tried this numerous ways, and was 
unable to get this to work.

Thanks
