Thanks--my applet is DITA-specific and uses the built-in DITA framework modified only to use our insertion action classes for connection to RSuite CMS, which is why I was surprised when paste from Excel didn't work :-) Looks like the missing library is the issue. Will correct and test. Cheers, E. On 3/7/13 1:28 AM, "Oxygen XML Editor Support" <support@oxygenxml.com> wrote:

Hi Eliot,

In addition to what George said, you have to make sure the applet you are deploying has in its libraries list a library called "nekohtml.jar" (the Author Component Sample Project from our web site comes with it). That library is used in the paste process to transform the HTML clipboard content to XHTML and if missing the paste will be made as simple text content.

Hi Eliot,

Enabling the MathML editing support for the Author Component is described here http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/#topics/mathml_support.html Both the built in editing http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/#topics/mathml_support_jeuclid.html and the MathFlow integration http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/#topics/mathml_support_mathflow.html are supported.

The smart paste is configured per framework and the DITA, DocBook, TEI frameworks already have this support. If you use DITA you just need to pack the DITA framework with the Author Component. Do you want to add this for another XML language?

We have our Oxygen applet configured with the out-of-the-box DITA framework and it's working well.

However, I would like to enable both MathML equation editing, either using the simple built-in editor or, ideally, the DesignScience graphical editor.

I'd also like to be able to cut and paste from Word and Excel the way I can in the standalone editor.

What's involved in doing this?

Thanks,

E.

Hi Eliot, When pasting do you get an error or is the text pasted as it is, without any formatting? Let's try this test: We have an online demo of the applet here: http://www.oxygenxml.com/demo/AuthorDemoApplet/author-component-dita.html If you paste in it content from Excel does it create a DITA table for it? Are you running the applet in Firefox or in Safari?

Hmm,

Looking at my applet jar, I have this entry:

And I verified that the jar is in our plugin jar.

So I think it should have worked. I assume this must still be a configuration issue on my end: any guidance on how I might debug it?

Thanks,

Hi Eliot, Indeed on a MAC special paste between the external application and the applet does not work, we'll look into this, but most probably there is some security limitation which does not allow the applet full access to the clipboard content (we look for the HTML content there). I will be back with more details.

I also tested under Windows and got the same result.

I originally tested this on my Windows 7 computer (pasting from LibreOffice Calc to the online demo applet) and it worked for me, a table was pasted. Did you test with a Windows VM running on MAC?

I could only get the applet to run from FF--Safari says plugin not available and Chrome says it doesn't support Java 7--not sure what's going on there.

Hi Eliot, It seems that when using Java 1.7 on Mac both the web component and the standalone application cannot find anymore in the system clipboard the HTML flavor. This is an already Java 1.7 registered bug (and will be fixed in Java 1.8): http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=8005932 But we found a workaround which seemed to be working on our side. In the Author Component Sample Project on the applet's init() method: ro.sync.ecss.samples.AuthorComponentSampleApplet.init() after this line of code: System.setSecurityManager(null); you can add:

try { if (System.getProperty("os.name").toUpperCase().startsWith("MAC OS")) { if( //And Java 1.7 System.getProperty("java.version").compareTo("1.7") >= 0 && System.getProperty("java.version").compareTo("1.8") < 0) { SystemFlavorMap map = (SystemFlavorMap) SystemFlavorMap.getDefaultFlavorMap(); Method pands = SystemFlavorMap.class.getDeclaredMethod("parseAndStoreReader", new Class[]{BufferedReader.class}); pands.setAccessible(true); pands.invoke(map, new Object[]{new BufferedReader( new StringReader("RICH_TEXT=text/rtf\n" + "HTML=text/html;charset=utf-8;eoln=\"\\r\\n\";terminators=1"))}); } } } catch (Throwable e) { e.printStackTrace(); }

Then you should re-build your applet and re-test running it in the browser. I'm also attaching the fix code as an utility class. Regards, Radu Radu Coravu <oXygen/> XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT Editor/Debugger http://www.oxygenxml.com On 3/8/2013 4:28 PM, Eliot Kimber wrote:
