Complex XML DataSet and Sorting

Question

Hello,
Please consider the following XML data:
<viewentries>
    <viewentry>
        <entrydata name="column1">
            <text>text1</text>
        </entrydata>
        <entrydata name="column2">
            <text/>
        </entrydata>
        <entrydata name="column3">
            <text/>
        </entrydata>
        <entrydata name="column4">
            <text>text4</text>
        </entrydata>
    </viewentry>
    <viewentry>
        <entrydata name="column1">
            <text>text5</text>
        </entrydata>
        <entrydata name="column2">
            <text>text6</text>
        </entrydata>
        <entrydata name="column3">
            <text/>
        </entrydata>
        <entrydata name="column4">
            <text>text8</text>
        </entrydata>
    </viewentry>
    etc...
</viewentries>
I was able to build a table like the following using Spry XMLDataSet and NestedXMLDataSet objects. However I am struggling trying to implement sorting...
label for column1
label for column2
label for column3
label for column4
text1
text4
text5
text6
text8
etc,,,
Does anybody know how to do columns sorting using Spry in such scenario?
Thanks.

This is how I generate the HTML table from the XML data source.
var dsView = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet(url, '/viewentries');
var dsViewEntries = new Spry.Data.NestedXMLDataSet(dsView, 'viewentry');
var dsEntryDatas = new Spry.Data.NestedXMLDataSet(dsViewEntries, 'entrydata');
<div spry:region="dsViewEntries dsEntryDatas">
<table>
    <thead>
    <tr><th>Column#1</th><th>Column#2</th><th>Column#3</th><th>Column#4</th></tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody spry:repeatchildren="dsViewEntries">
    <tr>
        <td spry:repeat="dsEntryDatas">{dsEntryDatas::text}</td>
    </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>
</div>
Thanks.
To the headings add  <th spry:sort="column1"> etc.
