 Hi Maria,
> I've almost got it but it doesn't quite work.
What exactly doesn't work? Let's see...
To start, first error I get is from MSXML 3.0 that complains:
"The value of the "order" attribute may only be "ascending" or "descending""
See Michael Kay's 2nd Edition of XSLT, page 296.
I suggest you want the parameter "order" to contain "ascending" or
"descending", right?
Try
<xsl:sort select="$sortKey" order="{$sortOrder}"/>
That should do the trick.
Cheers,
<prs/>

Subject: Using javascript to pass a parameter to XSL
I have an HTML file with an embedded XML island which calls an external
stylesheet. I want to use Javascript to pass a parameter to the stylesheet
using the addParameter method. I've almost got it but it doesn't quite work.
Here is the HTML:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html>
<head> <script language="JavaScript"> function sortXML(column,order) { var
xslt = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XSLTemplate.3.0");
var xsldoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.3.0");
var xslproc;
xsldoc.async = false;
xsldoc.load('Sort.xsl');
xslt.stylesheet = xsldoc;
var xmldoc = document.getElementById('ChargeableMessages');
xslproc = xslt.createProcessor();
xslproc.input = xmldoc;
xslproc.addParameter("sortKey", column); xslproc.addParameter("sortOrder",
order); xslproc.transform();
container.innerHTML = xmldoc.transformNode(xsldoc);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="sortXML('id','ascending');">
<div id="container"></div>
<xml id="ChargeableMessages" style="display:none;">
<chargeablemessages>
<message>
<id>1-01</id>
<date>2005-04-23</date>
<location>Quebec QC</location>
<number>418 683 1234</number>
<duration>1</duration>
<charges>0.43</charges>
<savings>.043</savings>
<amount/>
</message>
<message>
<id>1-02</id>
<date>2005-04-28</date>
<location>Montreal QC</location>
<number>514 485 6611</number>
<duration>2</duration>
<charges>3.44</charges>
<savings/>
<amount/>
</message>
<message>
<id>1-03</id>
<date>2005-05-01</date>
<location>Winnipeg MB</location>
<number>204 475 4565</number>
<duration>22</duration>
<charges>0.55</charges>
<savings/>
<amount/>
</message>
</chargeablemessages>
</xml>
</body>
</html>
And here is the stylesheet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:param name="sortKey"/>
<xsl:param name="sortOrder"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates select="chargeablemessages"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="chargeablemessages">
<h3>Long distance calls - Click on any column heading to
sort</h3>
<table border="1">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th><a href="#"
onclick="sortXML('id','ascending');">ID</a></th>
<th><a href="#"
onclick="sortXML('date','ascending');">Date</a></th>
<th><a href="#"
onclick="sortXML('location','ascending');">Location</a></th>
<th><a href="#"
onclick="sortXML('number','ascending');">Number</a></th>
<th><a href="#"
onclick="sortXML('duration','ascending');">Duration</a></th>
<th><a href="#"
onclick="sortXML('charges','ascending');">Charges</a></th>
</tr>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//message">
<xsl:sort select="$sortKey" order="$sortOrder"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</tbody>
</table>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="//message">
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="id"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="date"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="location"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="number"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="duration"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="charges"/></td>
</tr>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
