I am taking a guess, Are you refreshing/reloading the page. If you are the variable is going to be reset each time the page loads.

Dear Eric/Guys:
I am not refreshing the page..I have a table whose values are sorted in ascending/descending order(using XSL)..So I need to pass the sortOrder variable as a parameter to the xslt function..So the sortOrder value passed has to alternate between 'ascending' & 'descending' each time...

It works for me in IE6 exactly as it is. I've just a added a link to execute the function.

Note that you should use <script language="JavaScript"> for HTML 3.2 and <script type="text/javascript"> in HTML 4 and XHTML. The language attribute is deprecated in HTML 4. The default scripting language in Internet Explorer is JScript, which is very similar to JavaScript, but not the same.
