Oxygen for creating Drupal content?
by Tony Graham 22 Apr '13

22 Apr '13

I'm curious whether anybody has any experience in using Oxygen (either with Java Web Start or as an applet) for creating XML content -- 'entities' in Drupal-speak -- to be managed by a Drupal 7 CMS? Creating a locked-down Oxygen JWS [2] or applet [3] distribution with a single framework and any required extra jars seems simple enough, but getting Drupal to handle XML as XML doesn't seem to be as well documented for Drupal 7 as it was for Drupal 6 [1], and getting content in and out of Drupal seems to only be well defined for its native node types. As such, I have no great expectation that it can be done but would be interested to hear if anyone has managed it.

Support for editing xml:id / pointer attributes
by Peter Boot 19 Apr '13

19 Apr '13

Hi, When entering an attribute with a pointer datatype, oXygen's content completion suggests the xml:id's defined in the document, and that is very useful. Still, in cases where documents have to contain lots of pointers, editing those pointers remains an error-prone and unpleasant activity. Two things that would help: - underlining or highlighting the element that the current element points to. The same way that oXygen now highlights the closing tag when I click an opening tag, oXygen could show the element that is being pointed at. - a new view which shows all xml:id values assigned in the document (sorted in document order or by value). This will help especially when having to assign xml:id attribute values for new elements. (A self-updating xpath results view would go some way towards this, except that this takes up lots of space on the screen). Thanks, Peter Boot

oxygen does not follow Mac alias
by Tara Athan 17 Apr '13

17 Apr '13

I set up an alias in the Mac finder to point to some schemas that are imported into another (Relax NG) schema. The importing schema does not validate - it doesn't seem to follow the alias. System ID: /Users/taraathan/Repositories/.../trunk/schemas/relaxng/a.rnc Main validation file: /Users/taraathan/Repositories/.../trunk/schemas/relaxng/a.rnc Engine name: Jing Severity: error Description: FileNotFoundException - /Users/taraathan/Repositories/.../trunk/schemas/relaxng/c/modules/b.rnc (Not a directory) Is there a setting to enable alias-following, or is this a bug? I suppose I can go to the command line and make a symbolic link, but I was hoping for a convenient GUI option here. Thanks, Tara

Xquery Update magic comment in Oxygen
by Nicolas BUONOMO 17 Apr '13

17 Apr '13

Hi, I send you a some code to illustrate a strange behavior with Xquery update. The code is as simple as possible to illustrate my purpose. I’ve placed a Xquery update function in a Xquery module (module.xql), this function is then called from a query (request.xquery). when I execute this code within OxygenXml, it return me the error : Engine name: Saxon-EE XQuery 9.4.0.4 Severity: error Description: Node to be deleted is not an updateable node URL: http://www.saxonica.com/documentation/javadoc/net/sf/saxon/trans/SaxonError… unless I add in the query a comment like (: copy modify :), in this case, the code work fine! I have tried to execute this sample from the Saxon command line : $ java -cp /usr/local/lib/oxygen-xml/lib/saxon9ee.jar net.sf.saxon.Query -update:on request.xquery No license file found - running with licensable features disabled Error SXUP0081: Target node of insert expression is not updateable at mod:transform-update-test() (file:/home/nicolas/git-clones/xquery-dev/src/xquery-update/modify-copy-bugs/request.xquery#4) Query processing failed: Run-time errors were reported I’ve got a error with or without the comment (: copy modify :), and the execution is ok when I had the option -tree:linked on the command line, with or without the comment. $ java -cp /usr/local/lib/oxygen-xml/lib/saxon9ee.jar net.sf.saxon.Query -update:on -tree:linked request.xquery No license file found - running with licensable features disabled <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><modify-copy-bugs><hello>world</hello> </modify-copy-bugs> I work with Oxygen Version : XML Editor 14.2, build 2013021115 on Ubuntu 12.04.

CSS hanging indents
by Wendell Piez 17 Apr '13

17 Apr '13

Hi oXygenators, In CSS one is generally able to accomplish a hanging indent like so: .hanging-indent { display: block; margin-left: 5em; text-indent: -5em } By "hanging indent" we mean that the block is indented from the left margin, but its first line is not. This layout is commonly used for certain kinds of lists, such as bibliographies. But this doesn't work in oXygen Author because text-indent is not implemented (as is confirmed by the Help). Are any workarounds available? (Yes this is a feature request. :-) Thanks!

Footnotes in standard DocBook HTML transformation
by Claudio Tubertini 10 Apr '13

10 Apr '13

I'have experienced a weird problem with html footnote. I'm using a Mac with Oxygen 14.2 but whenever I try to produce an html file from an xml snippet like this one, (using the standard HTML docbook 5.0 transformation) <para>Il 27 gennaio 1961, al Teatro dell’Opera a Roma, venne proiettato in anteprima un film di produzione privata .... <footnote> <para>Lanocita A. (Lan) 1961, Rassegna cinematografica, «Corriere della Sera», 11 febbraio, 6. </para> </footnote>, commentò il «Corriere della Sera». L’ufficialità della pellicola è confermata dai dubbi insinuati dalla stampa comunista sul finanziamento governativo della pellicola e dalle recensioni elogiative apparse sulla stampa cattolica [Merolla 2004, 131]. <footnote> <para>Centro cattolico cinematografico 1961, Viva l’Italia, «Segnalazioni cinematografiche», 28 (XLIX), gennaio.</para> </footnote>.</para> I obtain a footnote link that doesn't work properly <a href="#ftn.d5e37 <#13df29c8626b3101_ftn.d5e37>" class="footnote"><sup class="footnote"><a name="d5e37"></a>[1]</sup></a> this link refers to <div id="ftn.d5e37" class="footnote"><a href="#d5e37<#13df29c8626b3101_d5e37>" class="para"><sup class="para">[1] </sup></a> that works. I think it is strange that this little bug (the anchor <a name="d5e37"></a> has to be moved out of the nested <a>) is still there. May be I am wrong. What can I do to solve this problem? I have to write a customisation stylesheet or there is something easier to do? Regards Claudio

feature request: notify user when he's deleting an element with specific attribute values
by Yves Barbion 09 Apr '13

09 Apr '13

Hi group Suppose I get to edit content which was written by someone else, and I delete some elements of which I think that they do not have a specific purpose. For example, I see content wrapped in a <ph> element and I could just delete the <ph> element, but leave the content in the parent element. The <ph> element, however, may have been used for specific purposes in the output, for example DITA flagging, so it may have specific attribute values of which I was not aware. Would it be possible for oXygen to give me a warning if I were to delete such an element, for example: "The element you are going to delete contains attributes. Are you sure you want to delete this element?" And maybe add the "Do not ask again" option? Thanks -- Yves Barbion www.scripto.nu

transforming own schema documents?
by Roderik Dernison 09 Apr '13

09 Apr '13

Hi, I'm trying to transform documents of my own extension of DITA to pdf. I've included some dita-xslts into my own. Now transformation isn't quite doing what I expect it to do. Eg. Transformation of simletables isn't working (gives wrong fo-output). How can I tell oXygen to save my fo-output so I can check where I went wrong in my xslt? Kind regards, Ing.

Recursive Root Element In CSS
by Betty Harvey 02 Apr '13

02 Apr '13

Hi all: I am creating a CSS stylesheet to autonumber topics. The structure of the document is recursive topics where topic is the root element: <topic> <title> <topic> <title> <topic> <title> The goal is to have 1. Title 1.1 Title 1.1.1 Title Because the <topic> is the root element and recursive the numbering is is being displayed as: 1. Title 1.1 Title 1.1.1 Title 1.2 Title 1.2.2 The third level and below numbers sequentially and doesn't reset. I tried doing a reset-counter but then the numbers are always 1. I thought maybe I could use :root selector: :root topic > title:before{ counter-increment: section; content: counter(section) ". "; } The CSS is valid but Oxygen ignores the counter and the number isn't present. I also looked for an Oxygen extension that might help derive the hierarchy from the top-level but wasn't able to find anything. I think it would work if there was a way to say 'this topic is the root element'. Anyone have any suggestions? Here is the CSS for the counters: topic > title:before{ counter-increment: section; content: counter(section) ". "; } topic > topic > title:before{ counter-increment: subsection; content: counter(section) "." counter(subsection) ". "; } topic > topic > topic > title:before{ counter-increment: subsection1; content: counter(section) "." counter(subsection) "." counter(subsection1) ". "; } TIA!
