Question regarding the eXist - access
by Thomas Zastrow 18 May '07

18 May '07

Hello, I'm connecting oXygen to the eXist database via "Options / Data Sources". Works perfect. But just one question: Which protocol exactly oXygen uses for accessing eXist? Is it WebDAV? Or XMLRPC? Thanks for the information.

shortcuts for special characters
by Dot Porter 17 May '07

17 May '07

Hello List, I've been using oXygen for a couple of years but mainly for text encoding, I don't really take advantage of the more advanced functionality. I apologize for this newbie question and I hope the answer is simple. I would really like to create shortcuts for some characters from the character map. There are three that I use often and it's a pain to have to cut and paste or use the character map every time I want to stick one in. I figured out how to set the menu shortcut keys and I was able to create a shortcut to bring up the c.m. but what I really want are shortcuts to insert the letters themselves. Any suggestions? Thanks, Dot -- *************************************** Dot Porter, University of Kentucky ##### Program Coordinator Collaboratory for Research in Computing for Humanities dporter(a)uky.edu 859-257-9549 ##### Editorial Assistant, REVEAL Project Center for Visualization and Virtual Environments porter(a)vis.uky.edu ***************************************

pasting javascript
by Robert Koberg 16 May '07

16 May '07

Hi, Great job on the new release! I was wondering/hoping there is a feature in oXygen that allows me to keep using the format on paste for XML, but have a way to turn it off for pasting something like javascript, velocity or similar script. I have tried putting the elements in the preferences for the 'Preserve Space', but whenever I paste the script loses its formatting and lines up at the first tab stop. For example create a new XHTML doc from the templates. Add a script element and paste the following: if (true) { alert('boo'); } Any way to set this up? best, -Rob

validation scenario for many files
by Alfred Gebert 10 May '07

10 May '07

Thank you very much for the *working with modules* feature in version 8.2. We have one XSLT transformation which is splitted into 182 files. Is it possible to give a wild card as target of the validation scenario? Because all 182 files are located in one directory tree. As workaround I looked at the Oxygen project file and wrote a little Java program to generate the <scenarioAssociation> elements for all 182 files. It worked partly. Some validation scenarios worked and some worked not. After I saved the project file again I saw that some <scenarioAssociation> elements, which did not worked, where removed. Regards Alfred

DTD validation and namespace prefixes
by Lars Huttar 09 May '07

09 May '07

Hello, I have a Schematron schema that formerly was validating successfully against a DTD, but now with Oxygen 8.2, is failing validation. The Schematron schema begins <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE sch:schema SYSTEM "schematron.dtd"> <sch:schema xmlns:sch="http://www.ascc.net/xml/schematron" defaultPhase="done"> The DTD, schematron.dtd, begins <!ELEMENT schema ( title?, ns*, phase*, p*, pattern+ , p*, diagnostics )> As you can see, the DTD does not allow for the sch: namespace prefix on the <schema> element. Yet the validation used to be successful. Was the old behavior incorrect? Maybe I should just stop using schematron.dtd and use the Schematron-validator that Oxygen provides? Lars

oXygen 8.2 and MarkLogic Server 3.2
by David Sewell 08 May '07

08 May '07

The new 8.2 release of oXygen has support for debugging against MarkLogic Server version 3.2, which hasn't been formally released yet. Will oXygen 8.2 work with the ML Server 3.1-5 release, or would it be best to wait until ML Server 3.2 is available before upgrading oXygen?

content completion feature extension idea
by Chris Chiasson 30 Apr '07

30 Apr '07

In validated editing mode, if the content completion mechanism is used to create a new element that isn't allowed to have child elements, could the mechanism create an empty tag instead of balanced start-end tags? This would save just a little bit of time when creating, for example, xref elements: http://www.docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/xref.html start tag/end tag/empty element tag terminology: http://www.w3.org/TR/xml11/#sec-logical-struct -- http://chris.chiasson.name/

InvocationTargetException
by Chris Lilley 26 Apr '07

26 Apr '07

Hello oxygen-user, oXygen 8.1 is failing to start, it gives FATAL ERROR Cannot start <oXygen/> XML Editor Due to java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException I have tried re-running the oXygen installer, choosing 'repair', and I have tried running the java upddater, which took me from jre1.5.0_08 to jre1.6.0_01, but neither of these things has fixed the problem. I'm not sure what has caused this error to start happening. I attached a screenshot, and cc'ed George in case the list does not like attachments. If there is a log file somewhere with the complete error details I am happy to send that if told what to send. -- Chris Lilley mailto:chris@w3.org Interaction Domain Leader Co-Chair, W3C SVG Working Group W3C Graphics Activity Lead Co-Chair, W3C Hypertext CG

ISO Schematron support?
by David Sewell 16 Apr '07

16 Apr '07

I see that O'Reilly has just released a title in their "short cuts" series, SCHEMATRON by Eric van der Vlist. It includes discussion of ISO Schematron: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/9780596527716/cover.html I know that ISO Schematron is still formally in beta. Will oXygen wait until a formal release to add support for it, or maybe incorporate the beta version if it seems to be robust enough?
