Highlighting syntax
by Tommy Nordgren 15 Oct '08

15 Oct '08

How do I get syntax highlighting in program listings, when doing a docbook transformation? I've downloaded and installed the xslthl jar from source forge. I'm using oxygen 9.3 and renderx xep. No matter how I configure the transformation, c program listings end up plain. ---------------------------------- The three things an undertaker should never say to a client: -Nice doing business with you. -Welcome back. -Have a nice day.

what happened to my cursor keys?
by Syd Bauman 14 Oct '08

14 Oct '08

Has anyone else suffered sudden up- and down-key remapping in the oXygen editor on Mac OS X? It's driving me nuts. A week or so ago, for no apparent reason, pushing the up arrow key no longer causes the cursor to go up in the oXygen editor pane, but rather causes the buffer to scroll down. It's as if in this circumstance oXygen is seeing ctl-up instead of up. I thought I might have a sticky keyboard, but it happened with 3 different keyboards. I might have suspected oXygen 9.3, but I've had it for a pretty long time, and hadn't noticed this problem before. I suspected a Mac OS X update, but the owner of one of the 3 or 4 Macs I saw displaying this symptom this weekend swore she hadn't applied any system updates. What gives? How can I wrest control of my cursor keys back? (It's interesting the compensatory mechanisms we develop -- I found myself finding new key combinations to get me close to what I used to be able to do. E.g., where previously I would have pressed down down cmd-right to get to the end of the line 2 lines below where my cursor is, now cmd-right right cmd-right right cmd-right does the trick.)

XML to HTML - a couple of questions
by Peter Bradley 11 Oct '08

11 Oct '08

Hi, My first question relates to oXygen's output when transforming from XML to HTML. I have a stylesheet that starts: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="/"> <html> <head> <title>My Title</title> When I do the transformation, I get this output (start): <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <title>My Title</title> My question is, what is that meta tag? Not only does it appear to have been inserted without my say-so, but it's also invalid since it's not closed. The second question concerns the insertion of a DTD at the top of the page. My Google-foo appears to have deserted me to the extent that I can't see any way of performing a transformation that puts a DTD at the top of the HTML page. Unsurprisingly, I want to have this: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> ... as the first line in the result document. Apologies if these are silly questions, but I just haven't been able to find any answers. Thanks in advance Peter

Large XML file
by Bradley, Peter 09 Oct '08

09 Oct '08

Hi, I am producing a very large (50MB) XML file via a transformation. Once the file has been produced, it passes through a validation process (another transformation) - for business rules compliance of the original data - as a result of which we occasionally need to examine the xml file in an editor. When I use oXygen to view the file, it takes over 30 minutes to load. The large file viewer is of no use because it does not format the input. Without formatting, the input is just a single long line of unformatted XML. The contents of the oxygen.vmoptions file is: -Xmx1450m -Dcom.oxygenxml.language=English Oxygen is set to format and indent on load. Is there any way that oXygen can be configured to load and display the data more quickly? Cheers Peter

pop-up of datatypes?
by Syd Bauman 07 Oct '08

07 Oct '08

This may be a FAQ, in which case I apologize -- I'm in the middle of a class, using oXygen to teach RELAX NG. A student asked an excellent question -- why is there no pop-up list (nor completion) for the values of type= of <data> at attribute insertion time? (He points out it would be *very* useful.) We note that at at validation time, oXygen can tell us that "date" is OK, but "dtae" is not. I'm betting that the schema oXygen is using declares type= as an NCName, but that at validation time oXygen knows to check the datatype library specified on the datatypeLibrary= in force. Any way to get attribute value pop-up for these datatypes?

invert selection
by Syd Bauman 07 Oct '08

07 Oct '08

I am off once again teaching an XML class using oXygen. When we do this, we often project an XML document up on the screen and select an area (typically an element with some children) as being that to which we want the students to pay attention. But as soon as we've selected it in order to highlight it, the background becomes distinctive (gray in my case, but can be changed in the preferences), and color syntaxing is lost. I'd like to somehow have the reverse visual effect. I'd like everything else to be gray and dull w/o syntax highlighting, and the selected text to be bright and with syntax highlighting. Of course, I don't want the whole file to be w/o syntax highlighting until I select something. I want the act of selection to make everything else look dull, leaving the selection bright and cheery. One way to achieve this would be to have a "inverse selection" command. I realize that doing so would mean that there would be two discontiguous chunks of selection, and I'm not sure that's easy to do, or a good idea. But *some* way to achieve this marvelous pedagogical goal would be appreciated.

Catalog Resolution for DITA conref
by Paul Ryan 07 Oct '08

07 Oct '08

All, I'm trying to get a catalog to resolve a uriSuffix for a conref in a DITA document but am getting an unexpected result. My catalog is setup like the following: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE catalog PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD Entity Resolution XML Catalog V1.1//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/entity/release/1.1/catalog.dtd"> <catalog xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog"> <uriSuffix uriSuffix="concepts/CopyrightHolder.xml" uri="src/main/documents/concepts/CopyrightHolder.xml"/> </catalog> It is set so that the catalog sits parallel to src. While watching the resolver I'm getting the following message: SystemID: null Description: Public: null System: file:/C:/workspaces/SkyManager2.0Clean/subversion.infotrustgroup.com/docume… = null It concerns me that it is getting null because with other resolver lookups when it doesn't find it, it at least shows an intelligent URI to replace with. Any help you can give me on getting this to work would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, -- Paul Ryan Software Architect Product Engineering InfoTrust Group, Inc.

Wildcards in validation scenario associations?
by Jan Nylund 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

Hello! I would like to use wildcards to associate all xsl files in a certain folder to be validated starting form another xsl file. (the files are only used as imported from that certain place) Looking on how the project file works, if I associate it manually and save the project file, I get an added "<String xml:space="preserve">validation.scenario.associations</String>" with the actual file path added. If I simply modify the file path to contain for example "*.xsl" it doesn't automatically associate them, so it seems this solution did not work. Am I missing something or is this feature currently not available? Br, Jan -- Jan Nylund Senior System Designer Citec Information Oy Ab
