If I understand you correctly, I do this all the time by putting showifs and hideifs right in the search context to cover all kinds of incoming conditions, including table sorting as you suggest. [search db=...[showif [sort]=oneway]sorting codes[/showif][showif [sort]=anotherway]other sorting codes[/showif]......] You can't chop up a search context like you are trying to do.
