Thanx! I'll check out the example next week.

Yes, the condition code is quite complex... not something to be done in =
XSLT. It will have to be script.

You probably don't even need the script section in the XSLT to do the=20
processing, unless you're trying to do something not easily done in=20
XSLT--like regular expressions, or date calculations, etc. =20

I just heard from a client of mine, and he wants my updated application =
(the=20
one I mentioned), so I'll probably be finding time to work out a better=20
example of dynamic filtering and sorting, but you can take a look at =
this one=20
in the meantime:

This isn't the best way, if the document is large, but it will give you =
an=20
idea. =20

I've got some improvements on it, and if you send me an email, I'll send =

some more stuff for you to look at, in particular another XSLT that =
filters a=20
large document (a couple thousand rows, about 2MB) using wildcard =
searches,=20
and other stuff.  When I get the final version with the dynamic search=20
parameter parser finished, I'll post an update to my web site example.
