Hi Tony, We've often used oXygen to create content later imported into drupal (using Feeds module), but never using the JWS/applet version as a replacement for the editor. I know of a project where this could potentially be useful, and so would also be interested in hearing of anyone who had done this. I realise that is just a longer version of a 'me too'. -James On 15/04/13 09:51, Tony Graham wrote:
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.
