RE: [xsl] Is it possible to create xsl:sort from input parameters using XSLT 2.0 (Saxon)?

Thanks for the help, I'm having a bad Monday.

$sortField is a document node and SortFields was being missed out.

I had never considered trying [<xsl:value-of select="$sortField"/>], so
simple...

Thanks for everyones help. I'm going home now.

And into this param i pass the XML

Ah, but there's the rub: is $sortField a document node (/) with child a
SortFields element, in which case $sortField/SortField[1] will select
nothing, or is it a SortFields element in which case
$sortField/SortField[1] will select something.

but I've no real way of finding out what it is reading.

sure you have, remove the xsl:sort so the error goes away, then add
[<xsl:value-of select="$sortField"/>]
 or select="instance of $sortField element()" or anything else that may
be informative to the body of your loop.
