hide/replace content of elements
by Philipp Steinkrüger 06 May '08

06 May '08

Dear list, i have yet another question concerning the hiding or replacing of elements, but this time regarding the content. working in the author mode it would be helpful to hide certain elements, like <note> or <abbr>. using display:none is not very helpful, though, because then the element gets completely removed, even from the structure-view (which i think should be considered a bug, the structure view should not be affected by the css). using visibility:hidden seems to be a better idea, but then the text is just invisible and the empty elements are producing large gaps in the text. do you see any possibility to hide the text on the one hand, but display a label or something (showing the tags would be perfectly fine). i also experimented with width=1px in the definition of the element in the css, but it doesn't work. thanks in advance, Philipp

Karl, The good folks at syncROsoft will undoubtedly chime in with features to recommend, but be aware that what you are asking is very open-ended: how do you use and develop tools to perform analytics on documents and schemas. In the general case, I doubt it's possible to build a set of tools for everyone that does this comprehensively and well, given the variety of different sorts of document sets, their schemas, how and whether they are already documented, their designs and implementation patterns, and the requirements of different sorts of transformations. This is not to say that there are no sweet spots that a toolkit like oXygen can find (it's already found a few); just that whatever oXygen gives you, inevitably you are going to be on your own to an extent -- to say nothing of being in a position to envision and possibly implement something that is very useful for you without necessarily being useful to anyone else (or even to you on the next project). That's just what life on the leading edge is like. That having been said, the answer to your specific questions is certainly yes. As you suggest, XSLT is great for this sort of thing. Many things can also be accomplished ad-hoc, using XPath (especially XPath 2.0) from oXygen's XPath query. So, "distinct-values(//*/name())" will list the names of all elements appearing in the document, while "distinct-values(//div/@class)" will give you all the values of @class attributes appearing on div elements. Etc. etc. (IINM oXygen has even promised to give us a way to export the results of these queries in XML, which will be extra useful.) I have also found Schematron to be very useful and fairly lightweight for edge-case diagnostics over sets of documents. For analytics over large sets of documents, for performance reasons you may wish to load your documents into an XML database. Certain databases can be configured as back ends to oXygen, as documented on the site. The hardest part of this -- and the reason why it's not necessarily easy to generalize -- is in defining your requirements: what do you want to find and how do you want the report to look? Having done that, implementing is generally pretty straightforward. For example, here's a simple XSLT 2.0 template that lists all the element types appearing with their occurrences by parent: <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:for-each-group select="//*" group-by="name()"> <element count="{count(current-group())}"> <name> <xsl:value-of select="current-grouping-key()"/> </name> <xsl:for-each-group select="current-group()/.." group-by="name()"> <parent count="{count(current-group())}"> <xsl:value-of select="current-grouping-key()"/> </parent> </xsl:for-each-group> </element> </xsl:for-each-group> </xsl:template> Many useful variations on this are readily imaginable. Cheers, Wendell p.s. I do find RelaxNG easier for analytics than XSD, but that may be personal taste.

IndexOutOfBoundsException while importing a gnucash XML file
by Graham Leggett 02 May '08

02 May '08

Hi all, I am trying to create an XSD schema for the gnucash XML file format, and so tried to use Oxygen v9.1 (MacOSX standalone) to load the gnucash file. The attempt to load the file caused Oxygen to abort the load with the error below. An IndexOutOfBoundsException implies to me that something is broken within whatever parser is being used to parse the XML. Has anyone encountered this before? Please restart after allocating more memory to oxygen. For this modify the parameter -Xmx in the startup script, for example -Xmx700m. In case you were running a diff tool when this problem occurred you can try to use another algorithm next time. For more details see the 'Performance problems' and 'Setting a parameter in the startup script' sections of the User Manual. If you just want to inspect the file, please use the Large File Viewer available from the Tools menu.

Ok, baby steps! Using Trang Converter, I've created an XML schema from XML source. The output I chose was W#C XML-Schema (recommendations for other formats are welcome, I do not know the pros/cons here). Now I am going to mark up the schema with xs:documentation and xs:annotation. Rigth so far? Ok, how about this. I have my stylesheet and I have the XML source. Arbitrarily I have chosen to use a number of the elements in the stylesheet. Is it possible to create a USED and NOT USED resource of elements and attributes from the 2 documents? So a document outlining the uses, maybe the count of occurences? I could write another transformation to figure this out, er, but if it is built into Oxygen than that would be great. Karl..

Customer XML to Schema

This is more than likely very easy to do! I'd like to get some intellisense from my customer's XML document when I'm editing xslt. Is this posssilbe, or impossible? There is no schema for the XML, so I guess step 1 is to create a schema from their XML source, I didn't see where to do this. Karl..

Commenting and Documenting Customer XML
by Karl Stubsjoen 29 Apr '08

29 Apr '08

What options do I have in commenting and then documenting my customer's XML using Oxygen? I imagine the possiblity of both, stating fact, and then posing questions, in an attempt to establish rules, understanding, consistency, layout and semantics. Hopefully inline / embeded directly in with the XML, and then eventually publishing a schema and or resource of my findings. Hope that wasn't too vague of a question! Karl..

line breaks again: oxygen author mode does not interpret <lb /> correctly
by Philipp Steinkrüger 28 Apr '08

28 Apr '08

Sorry, i just realized that I was mistaken in my previous email. in fact, oxygen correctly inserts <lb /> only into the xml-document. what still bothers me, and thats probably why i got confused, is the behaviour in the Author mode. there, with "full tags turned on" <lb /> is display as <lb>lb</lb> which seems to be an odd interpretation of the XML. anyway, changing to "block tags" and defining lb in the css as inline-block looks like an acceptable solution if, and here is my problem, the line would really break in the Author mode. But it doesn't. After the <lb /> element i can just continue to write. How could i make Oxygen to interpret <lb /> correctly? Thanks, and sorry again for my first post. Philipp

Insert empty elements using the elements view
by Philipp Steinkrüger 28 Apr '08

28 Apr '08

Hi all, i have a question concerning the elements-view in Oxygen 9.1. I want to insert empty elements like <lb/> <cb/> etc. The elements-view lists <lb> among the elements which accoring to my schema are allowed at the current cursor position, but when i double-click <lb> it inserts the following fragment: <lb>lb</lb> "lb" being highlighted for editing. I checked the preferences but i cannot find any definition of the <lb> element. Where can I change such a behaviour? Any hints and pointers to documentation or solutions will be appreciated. Thanks, Philipp

Apply one stylesheet to multiple XML files simultaneously
by Dot Porter 25 Apr '08

25 Apr '08

I'd like to apply a single XSLT stylesheet to an entire folder of XML files at the same time. Is there a way to do this in oXygen? It appears that you can only configure a stylesheet to process one XML file at a time.

using custom parser in saxon 9 transformation scenario
by Peter Rushforth 25 Apr '08

25 Apr '08

Hi, I'm new to oxygen, but I have written a custom uri resolver which references a custom parser, for saxon 9. The parser reads a binary format file, and returns xml events to saxon. It seems to work well interactively; now I would like to use it in the oxygen xslt debugging environment. I have configured a transformation scenario with the appropriate classes on the class path including both the resolver and the parser and classes upon which they depend. However when I invoke the transformation, I get "Content is not allowed in prolog", which looks to me like the parser isn't getting first crack at the binary data. Does anyone have a suggestion to help with this? Cheers, Peter

Validating XML instance with a Schema which imports another Schema
by Eric Jahn 24 Apr '08

24 Apr '08

I believe this is a bug with Oxygen 9.1, but please correct me if I'm erring in my thoughts or configuration. Here is the scenario: I have a schema which imports a second remote schema. I can validate this schema with its remote schema by configuring a custom validation scenario which declares the remote schema urls, as opposed to using local copies with a SchemaLocation declaration. If I declare local SchemaLocations, this all works and there are no validation errors, so I think I have isolated the problem to an Oxygen 9.1 bug. Now, I wish to perform the next logical step and validate an XML instance of this remote schema. The XML is located here: http://www.hmis.info/schema/2_8/Example_HUD_HMIS_Instance.xml Again, I set up an appropriate custom validation scenario declaring both remote schema (the referred schema) at: http://www.hmis.info/schema/2_8/HUD_HMIS_2_8.xsd and the one it imports at: http://www.hmis.info/schema/2_8/AIRS_3_0_draft5_mod.xsd When I run the Oxygen default validation, I get the following error: "Message:src-resolve: Cannot resolve the name 'airs:tSiteService' to a(n) 'type definition' component." It's complaining about not finding the schema imported by the referred schema. It does find the referred schema aok. This should not happen, as I don't get this error when validating the referred schema, for which Oxygen's validator locates the imported schema when the custom validation scenario is declared. Thanks for either confirming a bug or determining my error. -Eric

oXygen and EXSLT
by ohaya＠cox.net 22 Apr '08

22 Apr '08

Hi, I was wondering if it's possible to get oXygen 9.1 working with EXSLT? I'm particularly interested in regExp, but when I try that, I get a debugger error "Unknown Saxon extension element: script". If someone has been able to get this working, can you please share how you accomplished this? Thanks, Jim P.S. I can't use XSLT 2.0 because it won't be available in another environment which is the target.

importation of a remote schema problem
by Eric Jahn 21 Apr '08

21 Apr '08

I have a schema here: http://www.hmis.info/schema/2_8/HUD_HMIS_2_8.xsd which in turn imports this schema: http://www.hmis.info/schema/2_8/AIRS_3_0_draft5_mod.xsd If I copy the latter schemas locally and give a SchemaLocation to the local copies, it validates fine. However, if I remove the local SchemaLocation statement, I get this validation error from Oxygen 9.1: "[Xerces] src-resolve: Cannot resolve the name 'airs:tSiteService' to a(n) 'type definition' component. @see: http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#src-resolve reposHUD/tags/HUD_HMIS_XML_2.8 HUD_HMIS_2_8.xsd line 828 1208818729409 195997" Why can't Xerces/Oxygen validate against the remote copy of the imported schema? I tried declaring it in the XML Catalog in Prferences, but it didn't help. Any insights are very appreciated. Thank you!

oXygen 9.2 Beta - ditamaps
by Steven Anderson 14 Apr '08

14 Apr '08

Love, love, love the new functionality in oXygen 9.2 related to DITA. On first pass, I noticed three issues: 1. I couldn't figure out how to specify which JDK to use for DITA transforms to PDF. This matters, because RenderX is much faster with JDK 1.6 than 1.5, but I need 1.5 for other tools. 2. The DITA transform doesn't appear to be sensitive to the catalog I've defined in my oXygen preferences, thus it uses the oXygen defaults for everything. 3. In the dita maps manager view, topicgroups, and their descendants, are not displayed. Is this the right forum to post these kinds of issues/questions? Steve

oXygen 9.2 beta
by George Cristian Bina 11 Apr '08

11 Apr '08

Hi, We are getting close to a new oXygen release. This will be a version 9 maintenance release, oXygen 9.2. We made available a beta build from the links below: Windows http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/9.2/Oxygen/Windows/VM/oxygen.exe http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/9.2/Oxygen/Windows/NoVM/oxygen.exe Linux http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/9.2/Oxygen/Linux/VM/oxygen.sh MacOS X http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/9.2/Oxygen/MacOSX/oxygen.tar.gz Eclipse 3.3 update site http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/9.2/Oxygen/Eclipse/site.xml What is new in 9.2... There are more than 450 issues that were recorded as fixed in 9.2 already and probably the number will grow near 500 when it will become generally available. I will try to enumerate a few from the most important additions below. * oXygen Author =============== There are people that are not developers or there are times when you are not interested in the development features of oXygen and you want just to do XML editing. The oXygen Author removes the development features offering a more simple interface for XML editing. To start the oXygen Author you can use the author executable or the author batch script from your oXygen installation. The oXygen Author is available also as a separate product, both as a standalone application and as an Eclipse plugin. The separate oXygen Author installation kits are below. The license key for oXygen works also with the oXygen Author: Windows http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/9.2/Author/Windows/VM/author.exe http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/9.2/Author/Windows/NoVM/author.exe Linux http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/9.2/Author/Linux/VM/author.sh MacOS X http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/9.2/Author/MacOSX/author.tar.gz All http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/9.2/Author/All/author.tar.gz Eclipse 3.3 update site http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/9.2/Author/EclipseAuthor/site.xml * Navigation support ==================== The visual editing (Author mode) supports now links. The links are specified in the associated CSS using a link property. oXygen will render them and will open the referred document when you click on a link. We updated the DITA, TEI and DocBook CSS stylesheets to add link support for the specific linking elements in each framework. The link support works also with DITA conrefs and XInclude. * In place view of the included/referenced content ================================================== The included content (with XInclude for instance) or the referred content is presented in place as a read only block that can be collapsed/expanded. This gives the view of the result document with the inclusions and references resolved. * Inline tags - new visual rendering in Author ============================================== In this rendering mode the block tags are hidden and the inline tags are presented. This is available from the Author toolbar and from the Author menu and gives a compact visual view while showing the inline elements' tags. * DITA maps manager =================== This allows viewing and editing DITA map files. It acts also similar with a project manager allowing to easily open different topics/concepts for editing. You should get the DITA maps manager visible automatically if you open a .ditamap file in oXygen. It will appear as a tab in the same stack with the Project. The toolbar, the contextual menu and drag and drop actions will allow to easily edit the map content. Double click to open a referenced file for editing. * Closely integration of the DITA Open Toolkit for transformations ================================================================== This allows to easily configure and execute specific DITA transformations from the DITA Maps manager to different formats (XHTML, PDF, HTML, JavaHelp, Eclipse Help, DocBook, etc.). These are DITA specific using the DITA Open Toolkit and providing more options than the standard XSLT transformation scenarios, see the Filters and Advanced tabs when editing a scenario. * DITA conref support ===================== You can easily insert conrefs using the "Insert a DITA Content Reference" action from the DITA toolbar or from the contextual menu Insert->Insert Content Reference. * Synchronize the end tag with the start tag changes ==================================================== If the start tag is changed oXygen will automatically change also the end tag, thus keeping the document well formed and saving you a few keystrokes. * ISO Schematron improvements ============================= Allowing foreign elements in ISO Schematron schemas is controllable from the oXygen Schematron options. These are useful for instance when you want to access an XSLT 2.0 function from a Schematron rule. Also it is possible to specify that Schematron should be executed with Saxon SA (schema aware) and thus be able to use schema aware checks inside the Schematron rules. Internationalization improvements ================================= The wrapping of CJK (Chinese Japanese Korean) text takes into account punctuation marks. The Author and XML Source pages display on-the-spot the composed text (for instance when editing CJK text). The composed text is shown in the context of the document that it will eventually belong to, in a style that indicates that the text still needs to be converted or confirmed by the input method. Latest Saxon 9 ============== oXygen 9.2 supports the latest version of Saxon 9.0.0.4. Latest DocBook 5 schemas and stylesheets ======================================== The DocBook 5 final release schemas are included. The stylesheets were updated to docbook-xsl-ns-1.73.2. Latest XQDoc ============ XQDoc version 1.6 was integrated for generating XQuery documentation from within oXygen. We have also 2 DITA video demonstrations showing the DITA Maps manager and the DITA editing: http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/ditamapsmanager/ditaMapsManager.html http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/ditaediting/ditaEditing.html Best Regards, George --------------------------------------------------------------------- George Cristian Bina - http://aboutxml.blogspot.com/ <oXygen/> XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT Editor/Debugger http://www.oxygenxml.com

I appreciate the considerate response, Sorin. > We will modify the double click action. A double click on an > attribute name or an attribute value will select the whole > the attribute. A double click on a single tag will select > the whole tag including the '<' and '> characters. Thanks, that sounds good. I'm unsure whether everyone else will agree with this, so it should probably be an option in Preferences. > > You are the only user that requested to clear the clipboard when > > nothing is selected in the editor panel. > I don't think FJ was requesting the clipboard be cleared, I think he > was complaining about it. Syd is correct: I was complaining. Cmd-V is an awkward chord on a Mac keyboard, and I often accidentally hit Cmd-C when I intended to paste. My clipboard is then cleared, an annoyance that's impossible to undo. > In version 9.2 we will add the option "Cut/Copy whole > line when nothing is selected" for the text editor in > Options -> Preferences -> Editor.

Feature requests
by Francois Jordaan 28 Mar '08

28 Mar '08

Hi, I'm a very satisfied oXygen user (primarily working in XHTML and CSS), but I'd be happier still if it had the following simple enhancements: (I'm using oXygen 9.1 build 2007122116 on OS X Tiger) 1. Remember last Ctrl-E (wrap tags) value -- currently always defaults to 'a' 2. Improve Ctrl-E (wrap tags) to allow .class and #id attribute specification (e.g. I could Ctrl-E span.active and get <span class="active"></span> 3. Major annoyance (and arguably a bug): Don't clear clipboard when copying nothing (hitting Ctrl-C or X with nothing selected.) 4. Need shortcuts to make it easier to select attribute/value pairs and single tags (so that you don't have to drag-select around <tag> or attribute="value") Triple-click is already taken, so maybe Ctrl-click or something. 5. Cursor movement up/down: always remember x position from line to line, even after pasting. This is a little harder to explain. Basically, I'd like oXygen to behave like Textpad. Imagine you have a number of lines and you want to paste "<li>" in front of each. If I position the cursor in the right place for the first line, paste, then press down, I expect to be in the right place for the next line. But in oXygen, I'll be 4 characters to the right (from the end of the <li>) Bug fixes: 6. The "Delete Tag" keyboard shortcut on Mac (Cmd-Opt-X) doesn't work 7. The CSS validator doesn't recognise unitless line-height I'd appreciate it if you could consider these for a minor upgrade! (And anyone else reading this -- if you agree or disagree please say so.) francois -- francois(a)isotoma.com / Isotoma, Open Source Software Consulting Tel: 01904 567349 / Mobile: 07872 394273 / Fax: 020 79006980 Skype: fjordaan / http://www.isotoma.com Postal Address: Tower House, Fishergate, York, YO10 4UA, UK Registered in England.

Caching doc() calls
by Andrew Welch 28 Mar '08

28 Mar '08

It seems oXygen caches the XML from calls to doc() between runs? If you run a transform with doc('foo.xml') and then delete foo.xml, you can still run the transform! The doc() call works without causing an error... It's just taken me a while to figure out why a transform run from inside oXygen produced different result from the same transform run outside of oXygen - it was because a referenced doc() had been updated while oXygen was open and oXygen wasn't fetching it each time. Shouldn't oXygen's caching resolvers (if that's where the problem lies) only cache per transform run? -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com Kernow: http://kernowforsaxon.sf.net/

[xsl] Transformation from XSL1 to XSL2 error
by Dam's 28 Mar '08

28 Mar '08

Hi, I need to transform some XSL1 stylesheets to XSL 2 to use them with Saxon 8.7.3. I changed the version in the declaration and some little other things, but, obviously, it's not enough... I have an error which's making me crazy... > An attribute node (color) cannot be created after the children of the > containing element > The transformation failed due to an XML parsing or transformation error. > It seems to be about this part of my XSLs : > <xsl:template name="process.change"> > <xsl:param name="CHG"></xsl:param> > <xsl:if test="$CHG='ADD'"> > *<xsl:attribute name="color">red</xsl:attribute> (Especially this line!)* > </xsl:if> > <xsl:if test="$CHG='MOD'"> > <xsl:attribute name="color">orange</xsl:attribute> > </xsl:if> > </xsl:template> I don't understand what's the problem with color attribute node... I searched again and again with google... Some users have the same error but I don't understand how to resolve it in my case. Someone could help me, please? Thanks!!! Damien G.

Regular Expression That Matches Across Newlines?
by Eliot Kimber 26 Mar '08

26 Mar '08

Is the following possible using a regex search and replace? I have data that looks like this: 1. Some text? blah blah 2. Some more text second line? blah blah What I want to do is match on everything from the start of lines starting with "[0-9]+\." through the "?", Capturing the text between the initial "." and the "?". Is this possible with Oxygen? I can't figure it out.
