Re: How to simplify this?

you don't need to use variables unless you want to.

In your case it looks like you want to do something like

 onclick="setArrow({position()-1}),'{$thead_id}',;
  return sortTable('{$body_id}',{position()-1}) "


> style="visibility:hidden;"><xsl:text
> disable-output-escaping="yes">&amp;nbsp;&amp;uarr;</xsl:text></span>

Ouch you almost never want to use disable-output-escaping like that,
just use
<xsl:text>&#160;&8593;</xsl:text>
