Thanks David for this, and you are correct in your interpretation of
what I was trying to do.
But there is still a problem and I think it relates to my use of the
header
<html
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xsl:version='1.0'>
I don't think the parameter gets passed from PHP using this header. With
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="html"/>
The parameter DOES get passed. However, my HTML is not recognised.
I know this is basic stuff, but could someone explain to me how to use
the latter header and get the html tags recognised outside of a
template?
Many thanks
Alan Hale

This is a FAQ, $SORTBY is a global parameter so it will have
the same value throught the run so
<xsl:sort select = "$SORTBY"
is sorting on an equal value, so no sort at all happens.
XSL variables hold values not unevaluated expressions.
You probably meant to select an element with name equal to
teh string value of $SORTBY, which is
<xsl:sort select = "*[name()=$SORTBY]"
