Subject: Re: [xsl] sorting parameter ? From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 5 Mar 2004 15:31:40 GMT |
It work fine but I'm just wondering if there's not another way of doing it using standard xsl. the usual case, where the sortparam is not an arbitrary xpath but just the name of a child element can be done by <xsl:sort select="*[name()=$sortparam]"/> Slightly more complicated expressions can easily be added to this mechanism, essentially anything that involves a fixed length Xpath without arbitrary predicates. But if you really want to be able to pass in an arbitrary Xpath and sort on the result of that an extension function is realistically the only option.
