Re: Sort order - dynamic select

Here's how I accomplished that:

   <xsl:param name="select_sort_field"/>

   	<xsl:for-each select="codes/value[code_type =
$code_type]">	
		<xsl:sort select="*[name()=$select_sort_field]" />

I think you could do something similar ;-)

Is it possible to use a parameter as the select element in a sort tag?

<xsl:sort order="{$sorder}" select="$searchTerm"/>

Im trying to get the order based on the $searchTerm

ie.

so if $searchTerm = books/authors then in the xsl it would
sort by books/authors.

<xsl:sort order="{$sorder}" select="$searchTerm"/>


is this possible?
I cant get it working, is there another way to do this?

thanks!
