Sorting Xml with Xslt and changing sort column with a dropdown

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

I have loaded a xml into my project and used xmltransform class to apply the Xslt so that it would sort the document by a particular column (while also using Xpath). I need to be able to change the sorting on the page to different columns by changing a Dropdownlist.

I have tried various different ways, but with no success --- Does anyone have any Ideas?

For this you need to pass Dropdownlist value to XSL using parameter and based on param value which you have received in XSL apply xsl:sort statement. Roughly you need to do following

C# CODE

XslCompiledTransform tras = new XslCompiledTransform();
XsltArgumentList argList = new XsltArgumentList();
argList.AddParam("sortfield", "", "dd value");
tras.Transform("XMLfile", argList, sw);

XSL Header

HTML

<xsl:output method="html" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:param name="sortfield"></xsl:param>
