I have created a User Defined XSL file for the display of my UDT, but I cannot figure out how to filter the records.  If I use the Default Grid Table, there is a field for filtering. 

How do you filter when creating an XSL?

thanks,  -- jarrod

Hello,

I tried to follow your example and modify the xsl file that the system has generated from the html table, I made a several attempts but I could not succeed. What I am trying to do is to select in the main view (list view?) only those records where [Sector='abc'] (with sector not appaering in that view, btw, but only in the detailed view). I would be grateful is someone coudl help me. The content of the file follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:udt="DotNetNuke/UserDefinedTable">

  will be added as parameter starting with param
