Is there any way to script the <xsl:sort> element

[frontline]

Hello
i have xsl file that formats simple xml file and builds html table .
im using the <xsl:sort select="@foo" /> to sort the table by the "foo" attribute
my question is what if i like after the html page already has builded to sort the xml file by "foo1" or by "foo2" (lts say i have attributes by that name)
is there any way to access the <xsl:sort > by js on the client and sort the table with new value in the "select" property?
hope you got my point there
thanks

This is a follow-on from http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23568 Probably best to keep it all in the original thread, I think.

XSLT cannot accomplish what you are looking for. It transforms and destroys the original document in the process of creating the new document. After this, the XSLT stylesheet is lost.
