base-uri()
by Rushforth, Peter 18 Sep '12

18 Sep '12

Hi there, http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlbase/ says this: " In the example below, the base URI of element e2 should be returned as "http://example.org/wine/rosé". <?xml version="1.0"?> <e1 xml:base="http://example.org/wine/"> <e2 xml:base="rosé"/> </e1> " In oXygen 13.2, if I put the text input point after the e2 element and enter base-uri() into the xpath widget, the resulting value is "rosé" when the widget is set to process with XPath 2.0, whereas it is "http://example.org/wine/rosé" when evaluated with XPath 2.0 SA. When I run the following stylesheet against the same input using all three versions of saxon (including HE) built in, I get the full (correct) base URI as output. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" exclude-result-prefixes="xs" version="2.0"> <xsl:output method="text"/> <xsl:template match="/e1/e2"> <xsl:value-of select="base-uri()"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> I think this must be a bug, unless I'm missing a setting somewhere? Thanks Peter Rushforth

Debugger stops showing parameters for a while?
by Lars Huttar 07 Sep '12

07 Sep '12

Hello, I'm using Oxygen 14.0, build 2012062215. In the debugger, with Saxon 9.4.0.3 PE. I have a stylesheet running with a specified XML document as input. A certain named template is called, <xsl:template name="allowed-formats"> <xsl:param name="mixedItemTypes" select="false()" as="xs:boolean"/> <xsl:param name="tableScopeType" select="''" as="xs:string"/> <xsl:variable name="file" select="."/> <xsl:variable name="typePlural" select="local-name($file/..)"/> I step through these lines one by one using "Step Into". When the cursor goes past the first <xsl:param> line, the debugger "Variables" window shows the mixedItemTypes parameter, as it should. But when I step past the second <xsl:param> line (and the cursor goes to the "."), the $mixedItemTypes parameter disappears from the Variables window, and the $tableScopeType parameter doesn't show up. After a few more steps in the same template, both parameters appear in the Variables window. This makes it very awkward to debug what's happening, if the time when you need to see the value of one of the parameters happens to be a time when it won't show up. Also, when these parameters are not showing in the "Variables" window, they also are inaccessible from expressions (e.g. "$tableScopeType") in the XWatch window. Thanks for helping me understand and overcome whatever is going on here. Lars

[Announce] Training invitation: autumn classes in XSLT, XSL-FO and UBL in Europe
by G. Ken Holman 04 Sep '12

04 Sep '12

For your autumn technical training planning, please note that there are four in-depth hands-on XML-related classes that I have written and will be delivering at the end of October in Utrecht Netherlands. The separate publicly-subscribed classes are in XSLT, XSL-FO, OASIS UBL and OASIS Code Lists. For 10% savings, the early-bird date of October 1, 2012 is now less than a month away. Please subscribe early to prevent the classes from being cancelled due to insufficient support by the early-bird date. The details can be found linked from a number of different sources: Our home page: http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/x/ Open Source Academy (the host): http://www.opensourceacademy.nl/index.php?id=56&L=1 ePractice: http://www.epractice.eu/en/events/cranetraining LinkedIn: http://linkd.in/GUYLf2 I have had the privilege to deliver the material around the world many times over the years, and I have been the instructor for all of these deliveries: http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/training/pastsch.htm By way of credentials for my work, we believe my qualifications compare very well against other contractors and trainers ... I am a day-by-day practitioner in these technologies and this will be an excellent opportunity for the students to learn from my guidance: http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/bio/gkholman.htm By far most of our world training is delivered privately on-site for organizations, but we periodically schedule these publicly-subscribed classes to give the opportunity for companies to send fewer students than would typically warrant running a private class. For those unable to attend the live classes, there are two other options for XSLT. In 2008 the entire 5-day XSLT class was recorded as a 24-hour DVD-ROM, with exercises. The 2-DVD set can be purchased and shared as physical media: http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/training/ptux/ptux-video.htm Alternatively, the entire 24 hours is uploaded for online viewing, with 5 hours marked as free access without having to create a Udemy account: http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/links/udemy-ptux-online.htm Good luck in your training planning for the upcoming months.

Styling conrefs
by KAATMAN Matthew 03 Sep '12

I would like to style my conrefs so that during our internal PDF reviews we can quickly recognize what content is conrefed. I'd just like to make them slightly off-white or grey or stick a border on them or something along those lines. Any thoughts on how to do this?

Copy from Messages pane
by Karl Stubsjoen 30 Aug '12

30 Aug '12

I wish there was more options to copy from the Messages pane. Right now when you copy from the Messages pane you get a lot of info about where the source message came from, but I'd like to be able to copy just a selection of text from the message pane. What about a message View box, so you double click the message and you get all the details about the message and a text box with message in it that you can copy from. Or, is there a trick to copying out just the message text from the message pane? Thanks, Karl.. -- Karl Stubsjoen MeetScoresOnline.com (602) 845-0006

Framework add-ons -- what and where?
by Tony Graham 30 Aug '12

30 Aug '12

I am attempting to configure installing a framework as an add-on. I have an extensions XML file on a remote host defining the framework, and oXygen can find the file and provide all the right version and license information, but after I install the add-on and restart oXygen (or vice-versa, since it's not clear at what point the add-on is actually installed), there's no trace of the installed framework other than it being listed as "Installed" in the "Manage Add-ons..." dialog box. The file referred to from xt:location/href is a Zip file containing the oXygen framework file and, in subdirectories, the schema and Schematron files used in the framework. Is there anything about the layout in the Zip file that needs to change? oXygen says the add-on is installed, but where do I look to see what was downloaded, since the framework doesn't show up in the "Document Type Associations" preferences? It's making no difference whether or not I specifically run as "Administrator" on this Windows machine.

In-place rename
by Yves Barbion 23 Aug '12

23 Aug '12

Hi group I try to use the in-place rename feature as follows: 1. In Author mode, I put my cursor in the text in an element. 2. I press ALT+SHIFT+R. However, nothing seems to happen (also when I select the element itself). When I check the menu shortcut keys for rename, I see that the ALT+SHIFT+R shortcut is assigned to "Rename Component" in the "Refactoring" Category. In this list, I also see "Rename" but in the "XML Refactoring" category. When I assign the ALT+SHIFT+R shortcut to that Rename action, it works. Is this the idea or am I doing something wrong here? Thanks. -- Yves Barbion www.scripto.nu

css counter reset after closing paragraph / section?
by Roderik Dernison 21 Aug '12

21 Aug '12

Hi, I've created a dita schema extension that contains an ilexample for a complex example and an innerExample element for nesting in it. In css I make the ilexampleCounter increase each time an ilexample element is added to my topic. But when I nest those ilexamples in e.g. a paragraph, or section, each time a new paragraph or section starts, the ilexampleCounter is reset to 1. Is there a way to prevent this behavior, so that wherever my ilexample is placed in a topic, it will always get a higher number than the previous one? Kind regards, Ing.

10 files open is too many
by Echlin, Robert 21 Aug '12

21 Aug '12

Hi I find when I have a few files open in oXygen, that I soon reach the limit of too many files to find the one I want. This is a common problem, that I find in other apps as well. This is a hard problem. However, let's look at some specific irritants that you can probably do something about, most of which do not occur in other apps. - narrow list box The icon at the right of the list of files will show the whole list if you click on it. The names of the files are truncated, because that drop down list is too narrow. When this list is open, it doesn't matter if you can't see a lot of stuff under it. Please make it wider, maybe 50% wider? Or variable, so it will be as wide as the widest filename? - closing files Let's say I have 20 files open and I want to close the three in the middle. right click on one. select "close", and it closes. But... Instead of seeing the "middle" of the list, where I was just working, I now see the "left" side. (This is the bit I want you to fix) I then see the left most few files, maybe 6, and to get to the next one I want to close, I have to click the scroll button several/many times. Alternatively, I can click the "whole list" icon and find the file I want to next close, then select it. two clicks and some eyeball scrolling. Slow. - dragging files to change their order This is a similar problem to closing files. Try to drag a file, and the screen jumps to the left-most items, leaving you with a lot of scrolling to do to find it again, to drag it past one ... more ... file! - select different file, then go back Do this: - If I have currently selected a file that I am viewing in "text" mode, then click on the name of a file that is in "author" mode. Get this: - The number of toolbars open increases (that's OK, by itself) - The file I am now looking at "moves" to the left side of the screen (sometimes the right), instead of staying where it was. This may hide the file I was looking at before. This makes it difficult to move back and forth between two files. - ditamap vs. topic file One of our writers pointed out to me that maps open in the list get "lost" in the dita topics. Maybe different file types could have different background colors or some other differentiator in the list of files? Thanks for considering these requests.
