[xsl] Sorting with parameters

Hi

I am generating a HTML file from XML using XSL, and I want to be able to
sort by clicking on selected column headers. I was thinking that maybe using
a parameter in the select of sort might do the trick, because I could then
send a different parameter value to the parser for each run. However I does
not seem to work. Is the " select="$sortName" " not the correct XPATH for
this.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
	xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
	<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"
indent="yes"/>
	<xsl:template match="/">
		<xsl:param name="sortName"/>
		<html><body bgcolor="lightblue">
		<table border="1">
                	<tr>
			<td onClick="return sortXSL('Seilnr')"><b>Seil
nr</b></td>
			<td><b>Navn</b></td>
			<td><b>Type</b></td>
			<td><b>Fornavn</b></td>
	            	<td><b>Etternavn</b></td>
     		      	<td><b>Postnr</b></td>
           			<td><b>Sted</b></td>
	            	<td><b>Forening</b></td>
	           		<td onClick="return
sortXSL('orctd')"><b>GPH</b></td>
	            	<td><b>P.Line Time Fact. W/L</b></td>
	            	<td><b>P.Line Dist. Fact. W/L</b></td>
	            	<td><b>P.Line Time Fact. Offsh.</b></td>
	            	<td><b>P.Line Dist. Fact. Offsh.</b></td>
	            	<td><b>Time on Time Fact.</b></td>
	            	<td><b>Mannskapsvekt</b></td>
            	</tr>
		<xsl:apply-templates select="/ORC-Liste/OrcBaat">
			<xsl:sort select="$sortName"/>
		</xsl:apply-templates>
		<tr><td> </td><td>
		<b>Total: </b>
		<xsl:value-of select="count(//orctd)" />
		</td><td>&#160;</td></tr>
		</table></body></html>
	</xsl:template>
	<xsl:template match="OrcBaat">
     	    <tr>
               <td align="left"><xsl:value-of select="Seilnr"/></td>
