function sort(key) {
// Find the "order-by" attributes in the style sheet.
var s = document.XSLDocument.selectNodes("*/xsl:template[@match='menu']
//xsl:apply-templates/@order-by");
// Replace the values with the new sort key.
for (var i = s.nextNode(); i != null; i = s.nextNode())
{
i.value = key;
}
// Find the subset of the document we need to update.
var d = document.XMLDocument.selectSingleNode("story/menu");
// Apply the style sheet to the subset, and update the display.
menu.innerHTML = d.transformNode(document.XSLDocument);
}
