xquery annotation highlighting
by Jakob Fix 16 May '13

16 May '13

Hi, I noticed that currently (14.2) the highlighting of xquery annotations as introduced with 3.0 doesn't seem to work. we're using the xquery version "1.0-ml" (MarkLogic's flavour of xquery 1.0, with 3.0 features mixed in). the annotations look like this (taken from https://github.com/xquery/rxq) declare %rxq:GET %rxq:path('/address/id/(.*)') %rxq:produces('text/html') function addr:get-address($id){ .... }; what would need to be done to make annotations display correctly? cheers, Jakob.

How can I ignore invalid CSS?
by Jostein Austvik Jacobsen 16 May '13

16 May '13

I'd like to edit a website in oXygen. The website is based on Twitter Bootstrap. However, the CSS included with Bootstrap is invalid[1]. I just want to be able to add some paragraphs, headlines, images etc. to the HTML, nothing fancy, but since the CSS files doesn't validate, the Author mode doesn't display anything useful. Is it possible to ignore the CSS errors somehow and just display the HTML as if no CSS files were associated? [1] https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/issues/6398 Jostein

Unable to get DITA Docs to Validate: Can't Figure out Why Not
by Eliot Kimber 07 May '13

07 May '13

I'm helping a colleague set up an Oxygen environment. For reasons I can't determine, it is failing to resolve any DITA-related DTDs. I did find that the master frameworks catalog did not have a reference to the frameworks/dita/catalog.xml. I added that reference, verified that it was correct and that it eventually got me to the catalog-dita.xml catalog, but even after restarting Oxygen, it is still unable to validate any DITA documents. I compared the various catalog-related settings to my own environment and couldn't see any obvious differences. Any idea what I might have overlooked? It appears that when Oxygen was initially installed DITA was not selected as a framework, but all the DITA-related settings appear to otherwise be in place. Other than the entry in the master catalog, is there some other setting I might have overlooked? Thanks, Eliot -- Eliot Kimber Senior Solutions Architect, RSI Content Solutions "Bringing Strategy, Content, and Technology Together" Main: 512.554.9368 www.rsicms.com www.rsuitecms.com Book: DITA For Practitioners, from XML Press, http://xmlpress.net/publications/dita/practitioners-1/

Live XSLT/XProc message output?
by Jostein Austvik Jacobsen 06 May '13

06 May '13

When running XProc scripts and/or XSLT transformations, the cx:message and xsl:message outputs appear only after the script/transformation is complete. I would like to view the messages while the script/transformation is running since they can take quite some time to run and the messages indicates the progress. Is it possible to enable some kind of "live message output mode"? Jostein

content completion not working for idref with XIncludes
by Bob Stayton 02 May '13

02 May '13

I'm trying to create a set of modular documents using XInclude to assemble them (using a custom XSD). During editing, it is vital that IDREFs resolve to an ID value to ensure data integrity. To make that easier, I want Content Completion to work when inserting an attribute value of type IDREF. I have followed the directions in Oxygen Help to set this up. I am able to validate each module individually and the master file, regardless of where the id values reside, showing that the ID values are available during the validation step. But I cannot get the Content Completion to work for the IDREFs. When I enter an attribute of type IDREF and hit Ctrl-Space, there is no list, not even ID values from the current module. Details: Oxygen 14.2 Text mode Custom xsd schema using xs:ID and xs:IDREF attribute types. Enabled Master File Support for the project. Project set up with top-level file listed under Master Files in the Project view. Validation scenario created and assigned to all files has its "URL of the file to validate" set to the Master file. What's missing that allows the IDs be validated but the Content Completion fail to work? Bob Stayton Sagehill Enterprises bobs(a)sagehill.net

Difference between incomplete and incorrect
by Mark Baker 02 May '13

02 May '13

I'm writing a book in DocBook. It is the first time I have used oXygen to write in a schema that I did not create myself, and I am therefore relying a lot more than I normally do on the cues that the editor gives me. One of those cues are the validation errors. The problem is, they are all signaled with RED. That makes sense if you have entered something illegal, but most of the time they appear because you have begun to create a complex structure and that structure is currently incomplete. From an author's point of view, that's not an error, I just haven't finished yet. Where oXygen can generate the whole structure, it does, so no error is shown, but there are many cases where it can't because what is required is one of one or more options. In these cases, the structured does not become legal until the author adds additional elements. The thing is, RED means stop, but the author, in this case should continue. RED means you did something wrong, but in these cases, the author simply hasn't finished yet. I find the editor is constantly slowing me down by throwing up these errors that I have to analyse each time to determine if I need to go on or if I need to back up. When I design a schema, I try to avoid creating these kinds of structures, for just this reason, but sometimes they cannot be avoided. My question is, is there a way, and do folks think it is desirable, to present a different cue for incomplete structures than for erroneous ones. At minimum, use a different color, such as yellow, for incomplete. Ideally, find some way to indicate that the author is on the right track and needs to continue. Thoughts? Mark

webhelp search not finding some words
by Shawn McKenzie 29 Apr '13

29 Apr '13

We are testing the webhelp feature of Oxygen 14.2. Mostly it seems really good. The search feature seems great: fast, no server-side requirements, hightlighting, etc. But in quick testing we have found a few words that are in the content that don't turn up in search results: 'dashboard', 'account', 'define' and 'definition'. The words are in topics and generated index files seem to properly include the terms (index-1.js, htmlFileInfoList.js). Anyone know what could be going on? We are a little worried as we don't know how widespread the problem may be.

MarkLogic and OxygenXML integration
by Jakob Fix 24 Apr '13

24 Apr '13

Hi, We're using OxygenXML to write Xquery files for MarkLogic Server. We have a transformation scenario that connects to the XDBC server running on MarkLogic. For "normal xquery files" this works fine, i.e. I get auto-completion, parsing and error display and I can execute the file. However, with "module xquery files" we have a problem: * by nature, they cannot be executed, and we get a constant error message at the bottom of the screen E [test-db] XDMP-EVALLIBMOD: xdmp:eval(...) -- Cannot evaluate library module: * but if we don't link them to the transformation scenario, we don't have auto-complete and all the other goodies. Any idea whether that's just a configuration issue, or maybe an RFE? Thanks in advance, Jakob.

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

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!

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».

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

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!
