Topic: Sort ad filter tables using XSL

Hi,
I would like to create a small table using xml-xsl and enable the user doing following (client side) actions on the table:
1- enable the user to sort the table for each and every column.
2 - enable the user to filter the columns.

Is it possible to pass parameters to xsl?
Can I use the same xsl for all cases by using the parameters as the filters and the sorting keys?
If there is a way it will be nice to have a small example.

It is possible to pass parameters to XSL, and yes it's very useful...

But first I'd first suggest getting a copy of cooktop.

You specify XSL parameters like this:
<xsl aram name="class">SPC201</xsl aram>

The value of the parameter goes in between the tags.

Now as for specifiying the value in thestylesheet somewhere you have to do a little like varibles in perl like so...

<xsl:value-of select="$class" />

And if you want to specify a value for the parameter in the parser, your going to need to find that out for your self (maybe) depending on which language it is we are talking about. It'll be diffrent for each language.
