Hi Alex, thank you very much for both answers. For the time being I used the oxy_xpath function and it works well. Thanks again, Felix Am 12.11.13 11:02, schrieb Alex Jitianu:
Hi Felix,
It slipped my mind but you can get such a behavior by using the "visible" property on a form control together with the oxy_xpath function. If we take this XML example:
<root> <elem attr1="test"></elem> <elem attr1="test" attr2="test2"></elem> <elem attr2="test2" attr3="test3"></elem> </root>
You can write a CSS rule like so:
elem:before { content: oxy_label(text, "Attr1 ", styles, oxy_xpath("if (exists(.[@attr1])) then 'display:inline' else 'display:none'")) oxy_textfield(edit, '@attr1', visible, oxy_xpath('exists(.[@attr1])')) oxy_label(text, "Attr2 ", styles, oxy_xpath("if (exists(.[@attr2])) then 'display:inline' else 'display:none'")) oxy_textfield(edit, '@attr2', visible, oxy_xpath('exists(.[@attr2])')) oxy_label(text, "Attr3 ", styles, oxy_xpath("if (exists(.[@attr3])) then 'display:inline' else 'display:none'")) oxy_textfield(edit, '@attr3', visible, oxy_xpath('exists(.[@attr3])')) }
Best regards, Alex

Hi Felix,
Currently there is no way to write CSS rules that accumulate instead of override. And it's true that defining rules for all possible combinations can be quite cumbersome. From what I understand you only want to edit an attribute if it's already present in the XML instance. But how will you set a value for an attribute that is not yet present? Wouldn't be better to add form controls for all these attributes even if they are not yet specified in the CSS?
span { content: form controls for translate, locNode, term etc }
I'll add an issue to think on how we can achieve this use case. Meanwhile you could use our Java based API and write a StylesFilter. In this implementation you can take a look and see what attributes are set and dynamically add form controls for those attributes only. Of course you should also listen for attributes changes and reset the styles when an attribute is added or removed.

Hi all,
another newbie question I assume.
I want to add a set of inline editors. With a dedicated CSS style and given <span its:translate="no">... an editor for editing the "translate" attribute, a combo box editor should be available for editing the attribute.
The issue is that there are many of such attributes, e.g. <span its:translate="no" its:locNote="..." its:storageSize="..." its:term="..."> ...
First I thought of creating a combobox for each of these. But CSS selectors don't allow you to match several rules at once. So if I have
*[its|translate]:before { combobox def here }
and later in the stylesheet
*[its|term]:before { combobox def here }
an element like above that contains both attributes will only show the combox for "its:term". I can write
*[its|translate][its|term]:before { combobox def here }
but this will show comboxes for all attributes even if they are not present.
I tried a workaround: defining CSS rules for all potential combinations, that is: only translate, only term, both translate+term, ... but since there are a lot of attributes to consider, the CSS stylesheet looks really bad.
Maybe there is a workaround that does not rely on CSS selectors?
