I have a table generated from a database that I want to be able to sort by different criteria by clicking on the column headers and reloading the page, however I have tried various syntaxes for the <dtml-in selectAllProjects sort=....> line, and although the table rows are shifted around it doesn't seem to follo any logic. Could someone explain the correct syntax to me please?
I tried :
<dtml-in selectAllProjects sort='<dtml-var sortby missing="">'>
also tried doing a <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('sortby', sortby)"> with <dtml-in selectAllProjects sort=sortby> but have probably got the REQUEST.set stuff wrong too.
Here's the table
<table border="1" width="100%"> <tr> <td><a href="BE?sortby=responsible">Responsible</a></td> <td><a href="BE?sortby=beamline">BL#</a></td> <td><a href="BE?sortby=project_title">Title</a></td> <td><a href="BE?sortby=project_description">Description</a></td> <td><a href="BE?sortby=status">Status</a></td> <td><a href="BE?sortby=installdate">Install date</a></td> <td><a href="BE?sortby=updated">Updated on</a></td> </tr>
<dtml-in selectAllProjects sort=????> <tr> <td><dtml-var responsible></td> <td><dtml-var beamline></td>
TIA
