Web Help: How to include an entire directory in the output?
by Kristen James Eberlein 06 Feb '20

06 Feb '20

Hi, We need to include an entire directory of CSS and JavaScript files in the Web Help output: 317 files, too many to reference by individual <include> elements in the template descriptor file. How can we best do this? Previously, the team managed this by simply hacking the com.oxygenxml.webhelp.responsive/oxygen-webhelp/lib directory to add their directory; I very much do NOT want to do that. Obviously, we could handle this by a copy operation in our automated build, but then we would have differences between the results of the automated build and any local builds from within oXygen. -- Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting www.eberleinconsulting.com +1 919 622-1501; kriseberlein (skype)

Indentation of elements but not of comments
by Mike Unwalla 05 Feb '20

05 Feb '20

Hello, I want to indent the elements in an XML document. Tools>Format and Indent Files lets me do this. To specify the indentation, I can use Options>Preferences>Editor/Format/XML. Some of the elements have comments at the end of a line. Example: <pattern> I want the pattern element to be indented, but I don't want the comment on a new line. (I tried to use Elements Spacing, but I could not make it do what I want.) Is there a simple way to do what I want? (This e-mail message is a copy of my question on https://www.oxygenxml.com/forum/topic21114.html from 2020-01-27.) Mike Unwalla www.techscribe.co.uk

WebHelp: CSS for 2nd and 3rd levels of menu?
by Kristen James Eberlein 28 Jan '20

Can someone point me to the CSS for the 2nd and 3rd levels of the menu? I was easily able to discover the CSS for the top-level menu items using CSS inspector, but of course the lower levels are elusive. -- Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting www.eberleinconsulting.com +1 919 622-1501; kriseberlein (skype)

Re: [oXygen-user] oXygen-user Digest, Vol 111, Issue 7
by David Birnbaum 24 Jan '20

Dear oxygen-user, Thank you, Lee, for pointing me toward the online explanation, but it doesn't help. The instructions seem to have been written for Windows, and I tried adapting them for MacOS, so perhaps that's the source of my difficulty. Here are the details: A few data points: I see no option when viewing the certificate in either Chrome or Firefox (by clicking on the security icon to the immediately left of the URL) to export or save the certificate. The instructions at the link Lee mentioned say that I should be able to view a certificate from the browser and then save it to file, but I don't see an option to do that. The browser accepts the certificate without a question, and doesn't report it as self-signed. It is reported as issued by "Let's Encrypt Authority X3" (under "DST Root CA X3"). Only <oXygen/> seems to think that it is self-signed. What I tried: When I browse my Keychain (under System Roots -> Certificates) I see "DST Root CA X3", and nothing else that comes close to matching what I see when I view the certificate in Chrome. I guessed that this was what I wanted, and I exported it from the Keychain, navigated to the JRE folder for <oXygen/>, adjusted the instructions for MacOS (they were written for Windows, with backslashes and explicit paths), and ran the import command. I was notified that "Certificate already exists in system-wide CA keystore under alias <identrustdstx3> Do you still want to add it to your own keystore?". I told it "no" and restarted <oXygen/> and was not able to open the remote URL. So I ran the import again, told it "yes" this time, restarted <oXygen/>, and got the same error about not being able to open the URL.

self-signed certificates
by David Birnbaum 15 Jan '20

15 Jan '20

Dear oxygen-user list: I tried opening a file from a URL on a site that uses a self-signed certificate. <oXygen/> first asked whether I wanted to allow and trust the site, and when I told it that I did, <oXygen/> refused to load it, telling me that: Cannot open the specified file. There was a problem establishing the secure HTTPS connection. In case the server you are trying to connect to uses self-signed certificates, read the 'Troubleshooting HTTPS' section from the user manual. Full error message: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target I'm running XML Editor 21.1, build 2019120214, with the bundled Java, on MacOS Mojave. How do I communicate to <oXygen/> that it should trust this site? I tried adding an exception for the site to my Java configuration, which didn't help, and I then realized that that was probably because those exceptions are for my system Java, and <oXygen/> is using its own. Thanks, David

Re: [oXygen-user] Installing oxygen 19.1 on centOS7

Thanks for the advice. Setting max_bpp=24 solved the issue. Originally the color depth was set to 32. According to the manual for the xrdp.ini setting xserverbpp=24 does the same for X11rdp and Xvnc backends. Maybe it's worth adding a paragraph to the users manual? Kind regards, M.

Request for changes in xquery indentation
by France Baril 06 Jan '20

06 Jan '20

Hi, At the last DITA Europe Conference, I discussed xquery indentation in Oxygen with Radu. As there are no universal rules, he proposed I send my suggestions. So here are some suggestions that would truly help me. If they don't get unanimous approval, I would suggest that some of them become configurable in preferences. I attached an xml file that is indented as I prefer (so please do open it without automatic indent). I included comments that indicate the proposed changes. When you apply indent you can experience the issues yourself. Thank you -- France Baril Architecte documentaire / Documentation architect france.baril(a)architextus.com

eXist-db in <oXygen/>?
by David Birnbaum 29 Dec '19

29 Dec '19

Dear oxygen-user list, I've constructed an XQuery script for eXist-db that uses the function request:get-parameter(). It works as expected in eXide. I have established a data source connection between <oXygen/> (XML Editor 21.1, build 2019120214, running on MacOS Mojave) and eXist-db (5.0.0) running on localhost, and I can open, edit, and save XQuery scripts from inside eXist-db within <oXygen/>, from which I conclude that the connection is live. Since <oXygen/> apparently cannot use the eXist-db data source connection for debugging, instead of using the <oXygen/> XQuery debugger perspective to run the script I configured a transformation scenario where I specify the localhost eXist-db connection as the Transformer. When I run this script, I get the following error message from <oXygen/>: err:XPDY0002 Variable $request is not bound to an Java object The function is used in a line that reads: declare variable $story_id as xs:string := request:get-parameter('story', 'x'); I thought at first that the error might be because the "request:" namespace prefix was not declared and bound (eXist-db declares it implicitly), so I added an explicit namespace declaration for it: declare namespace request="http://exist-db.org/xquery/request"; The error remains. The entire XQuery script is below; it retrieves information from a TEI document, based on a user-supplied resource name, if the document exists and returns an error message otherwise. Can someone please help me identify what I have apparently misunderstood about running XQuery scripts in an <oXygen/> transformation scenario using eXist-db as the XQuery transformer? Sincerely, David djbpitt(a)gmail.com __ xquery version "3.1"; declare default element namespace "http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0"; declare namespace request="http://exist-db.org/xquery/request"; declare variable $stories as document-node()+ := collection('/db/apps/neh_06_reading_tei/xml'); declare variable $story_id as xs:string := request:get-parameter('story', 'x'); declare variable $story_filename as xs:string: = concat($story_id, '.xml'); declare variable $story as document-node()? := $stories[ends-with(base-uri(), $story_filename)]; if ($story) then <TEI>{ $story//(titleStmt/title | text) }</TEI> else <error xmlns="">{concat('No such story:', $story_id)}</error>

Non-breaking spaces in fragments via framework
by Christian Achter 09 Dec '19

09 Dec '19

Dear mailinglist members, this might be a trivial problem, but even after a longer research I haven't found a solution to it. I try to insert a non-breaking space via a button created by a framework. I use the following code within an <action>: <actionMode> <field name="xpathCondition"> <String></String> </field> <field name="argValues"> <serializableOrderedMap> <entry> <String>text</String> *<String>{CODE_FOR_THE_NON-BREAKING_SPACE}</String>* </entry> </serializableOrderedMap> </field> <field name="operationID"> <String>ro.sync.ecss.extensions.commons.operations.InsertOrReplaceTextOperation</String> </field> </actionMode> I added a placeholder CODE_FOR_THE_NON-BREAKING_SPACE above to show you were I want to fill in my non-breaking space. I tried   which caused my whole framework to NOT be read by Oxygen XML Author. I tried   which just created a regular space. I tried &#160; which just created exactly these characters as a string in my XML document. I tried several other things which all didn't work. What do I have to put between my opening and closing <String> tags? Thanks in advance and kind regards Christian Achter

Web Author and more then one git submodules
by Jirka Kosek 06 Dec '19

06 Dec '19

Hi, I'm testing Web Author with git submodules as it seems that submodules should be supported if enabled in git plugin configuration. In my setup if I have just one submodule in git then everything works ok. But if there are more submodules added into one repo then only first submodule works correctly. For other submodules Web Authors shows no files when I try to open file using dashboard. Is this known limitation or possible quirk? Cheers, Jirka P.S. I know that submodules is tricky feature itself but it fits our needs and I got impression that Web Author should support it. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jirka Kosek e-mail: jirka(a)kosek.cz http://xmlguru.cz ------------------------------------------------------------------ Professional XML and Web consulting and training services DocBook/DITA customization, custom XSLT/XSL-FO document processing ------------------------------------------------------------------ Bringing you XML Prague conference http://xmlprague.cz ------------------------------------------------------------------

Different licenses for oXygen scripting?
by Kristen James Eberlein 18 Nov '19

18 Nov '19

I am working with a client to stabilize their Web Help build. I've suggested that they incorporate the checks from the DITA Map Completeness Check into their automated GitLab build, in order to reduce errors in their DITA source. Their infrastructure team attempted to do so, but ran into a error: "No valid Oxygen-Scripting license found." The client does have a license key for "Scripting"; is that the license key for Web Help only? My client is a small division of a HUGE company that outsources their software purchases to a vendor, so I'm trying to do some legwork here. My apologies if this is the inappropriate channel for this communication! My best to everyone at SyncroSoft. -- Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting www.eberleinconsulting.com +1 919 622-1501; kriseberlein (skype)

oXygen Web Help Responsive question
by Kristen James Eberlein 06 Nov '19

06 Nov '19

I am "disentangling" a client's Web Help build. Many transformation parameters are specified in a properties file, including webhelp.publishing.template. if the values of the parameters set in the properties file and the .opt file are in conflict, which takes precedence? Many thanks for the help in advance! -- Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting www.eberleinconsulting.com +1 919 622-1501; kriseberlein (skype)
