hm... actually, using XML-RPC is is possible to make Javscript talk to 
the server. In theroy at least.

This may be lots more that Laura needs for sorting tables, but here are 
some relevant links from a google search:

http://www.scottandrew.com/xml-rpc/

http://www.vcdn.org/Public/XMLRPC/

http://xmlrpc.kollhof.net/jsolait.xmlrpc/index.xhtml

http://jsolait.net/


tthere is a whole bunch of other JavSAcropt XML-RPC stuff avialable all 
over the internet. And there even is a Zope-product that talks to a Zope 
Server with XML-RPC:

http://mjablonski.zope.de/Epoz

and I think Epoz is JavaScript only (unless I am wrong of course).
