How to Call XSL on Client Side

[Sandeep]

Hi All,
I am generating XML on the server side through Servlets & using XSL
for page formating. This data on the browser is displayed in the table format(HTML).
When user clicks on the header of the table, that column is to be sorted.
For this i want to use <XSL:sort> or another way thr XML only. So how do
i call XSL on the at client side.

Thanks in advance

I'm not sure if an html table has an event for column header clicks. If it
does, you can call javascript to create dom objects to manipulate the xml.
In IE this will need to be MS XML objects.

Yes, modern browser table cells recognize click events. For older browsers,
you can format the header as an anchor tag that, when clicked, runs a
JavaScript function to sort the data and redraw the table.

I knew cells did and but I didn't do a full mind shift before responding (don't
do alot of html) so I was mentally separating cells and column headers like
in advanced languages.
