I have a table tab1 with 3 columns col1,co2,col3.

I've defined a sql method 'get_list' as 'select col1,co2,col3 from tab1.

In a dtml method (view_list)I want call get_list and sort on any of the three columns. I know I can do the following:

<dtml-in get_list sort="col2">

display stuff here

</dtml-in>

I'm passing the sort order column to view_list using --> view_list?sort_order=col2

I get no error but incorrect results when I try to do the following in view_list:

<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('t_sort_order',sort_order)">

<dtml-in sql_list_rma sort=t_sort_order>

I also tried putting various combinations of single and double quotes around t_sort_order' without any luck.

I can display t_sort_order, so I know it's getting the proper value. It just doesn't evaluate correctly. I think it has something with double-quotes needing to surround the sort filename.

I really don't want to create 3 sql methods (get_list_by_col1,get_list_by_col2,get_list_by_col3).

I'd appreciate any help.

Thanks.
