Subject: [xsl] Chris Bayes tutorial: xsl:sort - sorting according to user selection From: "Tanzila Mohammad" <tmohammad@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 31 May 2001 12:16:25 +0100 |
Chris, I am going through your 'sort columns' tutorial. I am omitting the css references in the xsl so that the following is used: <td onClick="sort('name');">Name</td> <td onclick="sort('origin');">Origin</td> <td onclick="sort('type');">Type</td> <td onclick="sort('quality');">Quality</td> and hence there is only a reference to the javascript and filter.js file within the "head" html tags. I ran the xsl against the tutorial xml and the beer table html was formed. However, the onclick function was not working - was there something in the css file that was required?

Your tutorial employs an XML file... xml is xml it doesn't matter where it comes from. You could of course do a round trip to the server to sort the columns if you want and you would do that by passing params to the stylesheet as i have shown in the tutorial.
