hi, Below is a snippet of my code. I am using a parameter called "SORT_BY" to sort only when "SORT_BY" has a value. The value of "SORT_BY" is (I've tested to be sure) the value of the child element to sort by or the value is undefined. If the value is undefined then sorting is not done. My problem is that when I do have a "value" to sort by, the code still behaves as if it did not sort. I must be missing something here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, there is a good bit of javascript in my code but I left it out because it is irrelevant to the problem. <xsl:param name="SORT_BY" select="undefined"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <HTML> <head> <SCRIPT language="JavaScript"> function init() { <!-- this function builds a table --> . bunch of javascript . <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$SORT_BY != undefined"> <xsl:for-each select="ToDoList/ActionItem"> <xsl:sort data-type="text" select="$SORT_BY" order="ascending"/> <xsl:if test="position()>=$FIRST_TABLE_ENTRY and position()<=$LAST_TABLE_ENTRY"> more javascript + XSL <!-- builds a row in the table --> </xsl:if> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:apply-templates select="ToDoList/ActionItem[position()>=$FIRST_TABLE_ENTRY and position()<=$LAST_TABLE_ENTRY]"/> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> .... more javascript ... </SCRIPT> </head> ...... </xsl:template> XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
