Rails - Oct 2006 - embedding sort director icons in header using SortingHelper???

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a way to embed the use of sort direction icons in table
headers into the SortingHelper framework, i.e. so one does not have to
manually calcaulate and add the right "down_arrow" /
"right_arrow" images
in?

For example (roughly speaking) I''m doing the follow kind of thing:

       <th><%= link_to "#{ image_tag("arrow_right.gif",
{:border => 0}) }
Name", @sorter.to_link("NAME", params) %></th>


Thanks
Greg

PS.  I should say I''m doing something like this at the moment...

    <% if params[:sort] == "NAME" %>
        <th><%= link_to "#{ image_tag("arrow_down.gif",
{:border => 0}) }
Name", @sorter.to_link("NAME", params) %></th>
    <% else %>
        <th><%= link_to "#{ image_tag("arrow_right.gif",
{:border => 0}) }
Name", @sorter.to_link("NAME", params) %></th>
    <% end%>
