Hello Harjinder!
Not sure if you had this in mind or not. This is an example of
data binding and sorting using the Tabular Data Control (tdc)
that ships with IE. Please note that this will only work with IE.
Copy each section. Save the first with any name you like, but you
must save the second section (the comma delimited list) as
"docList.txt" because it's the source of the data and that name
is coded into the .html page.
