How To Apply Saxon XQuery to Input Document of Transformation Scenario
by Eliot Kimber 14 Jan '08

14 Jan '08

I wanted to apply an XQuery to the input document specified in a Saxon transformation scenario but it wasn't immediately obvious how this would work. I figured out that this works: let $doc := . As the first statement in the query (or the first that doesn't reset the context value). I think this works because Saxon uses the value of the -s parameter as the value of the query's context node (which is accessed using "."). It would be useful to have an example of this in the online help for running XQueries using Saxon.

Can't Apply XQuery Scenario From Document Window
by Eliot Kimber 14 Jan '08

14 Jan '08

It appears that from a document's window you can only apply XSLT transforms, not XQuery transforms. Is that correct? And if so, why? I tried creating an XQuery scenario that took the current doc as input but when I apply it it's trying to process it as XSLT. I realize this is probably not the normal way to use XQuery, but in this case I wrote a query that analyzes a single document and just want to apply it to a doc without having to re-edit the scenario.

Feature Request: Remember parameters to trang converter
by Eliot Kimber 08 Jan '08

08 Jan '08

I've been using the trang converter to do some iterative development (generate XSD, test result, fix DTD, generate XSD, try different options, etc.) and found it annoying that the converter dialog didn't remember at least the directories I had used for the input and output, if not the specific files. Would it be possible to have the dialog remember the last values used or default to the directories used for input and output?

Drag to oXygen Dock icon (OS X) doesn't work
by Francois Jordaan 08 Jan '08

08 Jan '08

I'd appreciate some help from Mac users of oXygen. Why can I not drag .html files onto the oXygen Dock icon? I can drag .css files to it (possibly only since the 9.1 update), but not .html. 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.

Feature Request: Refactor: Create New Document
by Eliot Kimber 08 Jan '08

08 Jan '08

It would be handy to have a "create document from element" refactor, as well as a "create document and replace with {xref|conref|xinclude}" depending on your document type context.

Feature request: XQuery Outline
by David Sewell 07 Jan '08

07 Jan '08

In the XQuery outline, could there be added at the bottom a bullet point * Query Body to mark the point where the query proper begins? Currently, to find the start-of-query using the Outline, it is necessary to click on the last prologue declaration, for example the last function declaration, and then scroll down to the end of that declaration.

Bug? Message Window Goes Away After Opening Transform Result
by Eliot Kimber 07 Jan '08

07 Jan '08

Using 9.1, build 2007121915, I'm noticing that if I run an XSLT transform that generates output and have that automatically opened in the editor, then when I run the transform (from the XSLT document) I see a messages window but then after the result opens, the messages window goes away. On second runs, where the result is already open, if I say "no" to the "file changed" dialog, then the message window remains and I can see the messages.

How To: Use Trang with Catalog-Based Resolution (DTD-to-Schema)
by Eliot Kimber 04 Jan '08

04 Jan '08

I'm trying to use Trang through Oxygen to create flat schemas from my local shells and specializations. I immediately ran into the problem that all my stuff depends on catalogs and it looks like Trang isn't using the catalogs configured in the main editor. Is there an easy way to hook in the catalogs?

Re: Drag to oXygen Dock icon (OS X) doesn't work
by John Kelly 02 Jan '08

You can always "force" the Dock to open a document in a particular application by holding command and option while dragging the file over the application icon. You can press these keys at any point while dragging the document. . John
