The following was posted by Jeremy Byron and Steve Klein on the xslTalk discussion list to answer your question: <xsl:sort select="*[name()=$sort_by]" data-type="{$sort_type}" order="{$sort_dir}" /> For the record, the *[name()=$sort_by] is a XPath query expression. It means, roughly, select all child nodes of the current node (the *), limiting them by (the [...] part) where the name of the node is equal to the value provided (the name()=$sort_by).
