I'd like to create a DTML method that lists objects, sorting either by name or modified-date. I know I can do this by: <dtml-if ..byname...> <dtml-in blah sort="title_or_id"> ... </dtml-else> <dtml-in balh sort="bobobase_modification_time"> ... </dtml-if> However, this requires lots of code. I'm trying to do it like this: Sorted by &dtml-sortby; <!-- for debugging --> <dtml-in objectValues sort="&dtml-sortby;"> <dtml-var title_or_id> (<dtml-var bobobase_modification_time>) </dtml-in> I have a property, sortby, of the enclosing folder set to "bobobase_modification_time"; when this method is called, it dutifully reports that sortby=b_m_t; however, it doesn't sort things this way (I can't tell exactly how it is sorting them, and when I refresh, the order occasionally changes.) Any ideas? -- Joel Burton, Director of Information Systems -*- jburton@scw.org Support Center of Washington (www.scw.org)
