If you want to store numeric data in an XML document then you I strongly 
suggest to use the 777.6 floating point notation. Later, when you want 
to output the numbers you can always transform them to the desired 
format. But for computations or sorting you need the floating point 
notation.

If you really have 777,6 in your XML data then you need e.g.
   <xsl:sort data-type="number"
      select="number(translate(impbas, ',', '.'))" order="ascending"/>
