Blanks in XSLT blues

It seems that Indesign does not handle blanks in a data source well.
We are using xslt to break-up a large XRL file into localised versions.
However we have to add a bit of junk to every blank field, which then needs to be removed in Indesign.
Has anyone else encountered this and found a better way of handling it?

Hi Harald,
The few times I got that message is that the attribute variable would not select any records. Attribute variable does not seem to deal with with zero record selected scenerio. I suspect, you currently do not have any materials with blank attribute X.
The time we had to do it, I got the the BW team member who is a much better ABAPer than I am to program an attribute exit variable and through a couple of attempts, found it handles our situation best by creating an internal table with the selected record and have a message dealing with the 0 record scenerio.
Hope this helps and feel free to assign points if it does.

Mail app is blank. I can not see any thing but a blank page with blue lined format. It does not shut down either. It just blinks out after a few seconds and the icon is there alone on my home screen then everything goes black and my home screen comes

MY Mail app does not respond in anyway to anything. The icon shows I have over 300 emails but I have no access to them. When I tap on the Mail icon a blank white page comes up with the blue format lines. No emails, no inbox, nothing, not a single letter of the alphabet is there. Within a few seconds it blinks out and I see the icon and my home screen. Soon it just blinks out to black. I am left with the icon at the bottom center of the screen. I have no way to shut it down. I have no access to the emails (300) in my inbox. All that is happening is my memory is getting filled up with emails. I would appreciate any solution to this problem barring deleting my email set up in settings.
if I have to resort to that I will, in the meantime I am hoping for a different resolution. Thanks everyone, you are all amazing and greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Diane.

Hey There Diane,
If I'm understanding your situation, you've got an iPad running iOS 6.1.3 and the Mail app is not working. I understand you don't want to remove and re-add your email account.
The first thing I would suggest is to make sure your iPad is backed up to iCloud or iTunes.
Do you have an iMAP or a POP email account? When you go online to your email service provider's website, are you able to access the 300 emails in your inbox?
Since the Mail app is part of your iOS operating system, upgrading that software to the latest version, which is 8.1.3 may resolve this issue.

ITunes store is all blank boxes and blue text. How do I fix that?

I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and when I tried to access the iTunes store, 1) it takes FOREVER to come up, 2) it doesn't come up most of the time and is a blank white screen instead 3) when it does come up, it is a bunch of blank white boxes and the text is all in blue. Also the genius doesn't load either and takes forever.

Try this,
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.

How to pass some default values in all elements which are blank in xslt.

Hi,
Help needed:
Scenario:
After .xslt transformation, there are some elements which are being mapped but left blank. I want to assign some default values to it like '0'. How to do that.
Thanks.

One solution would be something like this...
http://remysharp.com/2008/08/15/how-to-default-a-variable-in-xslt/
Or you can use a template like this...
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="node()|@*">
     <xsl:copy>
       <xsl:apply-templates select="node()|@*"/>
     </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Title">
    <xsl:choose>
        <xsl:when test="string-length(normalize-space(.)) = 0">
            <Title>default</Title>
        </xsl:when>
        <xsl:otherwise>
            <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
        </xsl:otherwise>
    </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>For every empty "Title" node, this template will add <Title>default</Title>... If the Title has value it won't be changed... You can change this to your fields/your defaults... If you need default for other field just add another template in the same transformation...
Cheers,
Vlad

Ipad 2 screen randomly gone blank shows dark blue light up but no apple logo upon restart and remains the same.

Hey
So I left my Ipad 2 on charge and it was working absolutely fine. Later on when I came in the room to check up on it, it had a blank screen and the Ipad was lit in the background as it was giving off the dark blue light but nothing on the screen would come up. I tried shutting it down using the power button and the home button yet nothing. Even the Apple logo would not appear. I just recently upgraded to IOS 6. I'm not sure what exactly caused this as it was working fine just a few hours ago. I've tried connecting to itunes held down the power and home button nothing seems to be working. Also I no longer have the warrenty.
Not sure what to do now

Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

Facebook pull-downs don't work and the messages area is blank under the blue navigation bar.

I recently let my computer upgrade my Firefox from 16.0.1 to 16.0.2. Once I did, every single page I went to loaded but came up completely blank. I tried Firefox's suggestions on fixing it and nothing worked so I went back to 15 and then upgraded to my previously working version, 16.0.1. I've only had one problem since. My pull-downs on Facebook don't work, the messages page comes up blank, and lots of other little things don't work either, like comments on certain pages or the "endless page loading" on my friends pages (I can only see the top few updates, the rest doesn't load.) It works fine on Chrome, but I hate losing all my plugins to go to Chrome from Firefox when only one site doesn't work. Since then I've turned off all my add-ons, deleted my history, removed my cache and cookies, utterly removed Firefox and reinstalled from scratch again, after deleting EVERY item on my hard drive with the word Mozilla attached. I've updated my Flash, my Java, my QuickTime, my Direct X and my Adobe reader plug in. I've tried to roll back my system, but I've been working on this too long and it won't go back far enough. I've run the windows malware scanner (full scan) and Malwarebytes scanner as well (full scan), with no problems found. I'm out of suggestions. What can I do to get my Facebook to work again on Firefox 16.0.1? I'm on Windows 7 (64) Home Edition, BTW.
HELP!!

That did it!
Your kung fu is better than mine and I am massively grateful to you. Everyone else had given up on helping me or never even started . Thank you VERY much!!
EDIT: NOOOO!!! I have no idea what's wrong. It started doing it again, and now when I delete everything in that folder for personal stuff, even when I JUST deleted it all and haven't added ANYTHING, it still is broken! I'm so sad! We almost had it!!
Why would it work the first time and then not work the second time? I bring up the personal settings folder, delete everything in it, restart, go to facebook, and then it still doesn't work!
EDIT: I figured it out. I like to have firefox remember some cookies and not others. Most are deleted on restart except a few key sites. When I change that setting to on, facebook java stuff stops working. Even if I let facebook be one of the few that I always keep the cookies for on restart, it still won't let me use it. I either need to have it remember all cookies or forget all cookies on restart. And I hate tracking, so if I have to choose between firefox remembering everything and remembering nothing, I'll take nothing. It's probably good for me to remember all my passwords anyways. Annoyed that facebook won't let me use that setting, though.
So solved!

Images on certain websites come up blank with little blue box with white "?" inside

I own a MacBook Pro (MAC OS X 10.6.8) that I purchased in 2011. I have never had a single problem before, but here very recently youtube, my school (FSU) website, and a few other random websites will not load images. At all. They just show a little blue box with a white question mark inside. I have tried emptying the catch, resetting safari, nothing works. Help? I need to be able to see the images on my.fsu.edu it's really important!

I have light blank blue screen with no other options?

My screen went to a blank background light blue color with no other options visable. What can I do to fix it?
Is it a software issue or a graphics card issue? Any thoughts are welcome.
Thank you in advance.

Thank you, but it didn't clear it. The first step you mentioned didn't seem to make any difference unfortunately.
The second safe mode option did help in providing me my regular screen though it was fuzzy and it asked me to restart the computer.
I restarted the computer and I'm back to blank light blue background screen with no options.
Does it mean anything that I did have something under the safe mode though it was fuzzy/grainy?
Please help..

Creative MP3 Player (Microphoto) Blank LCD Display Scr

[size="">Hi, The LCD Display Screen on the Creative MP3 Player is blank. The blue background light will come on but nothing on the screen. I saw that it was suggested to update the firmware, however, I have no idea how to do that. If someone can explain to me how to do that I will try it. Or maybe you can suggest something else that I can do. I already tried several things suggested on your website, like removing the battery and installing it again, etc. I would appreciate it if someone would help me. Thanks!

[size="">Good Morning,[size="">I tried the firmware upgrade, however, the screen is still blank. Should I have removed the batter and re-install it again? I tried calling support, however if my product is not in warranty it really doesn't give me that many options or refers me to anyone. Is there a telephone number in particular I should call. Thank you for your advise though, I appreciate it!? Have a

Mac desktop duplicates and turns blue

I'm using a new Mac Powerbook with 10.6, latest updates. I'm also using a secondary screen hooked up via a Plugable brand dock. Clamshell mode doesn't work (Apple problem) , so I have to leave the MacBook open, but screen mirroring generally works well, with black bars at the top and bottom of screen because of different native resolutions.
The problem happens when Firefox (or any browser but Safari) is launched. The screen goes blue and a secondary "ghost" menu bar appears at the top of the screen and remnant graphics appear on the bottom bar of the screen. Both of these areas remain inaccessible to the mouse. The appearance is like a second, light blue, menubar is at the top of the screen. The desktop image is also blanked to solid blue. It doesn't impede functionality, but to return the desktop to normal, I have to quit the browser, go to System Preferences and reset the screen resolution to something else, then reset it to the original resolution. The recalculation seems to "remind" the computer about desktop settings.
Tried zapping PRAM to no avail.

The same problem on the same spec Mac Book Pro. It will return from blue on a restart.

Unusual hang spot on blue screen.

I have searched and searched and searched and have not found any other topic on the problem I am having. I have about a month old imac (intel). I have seen this a few times http://weblog.techdad.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/kernelpanic.jpg
(didn't know if it was relevant or not)
and now after being stuck on the gray screen of death, I went into single user mode and performed the /sbin/fsck -fy command to repair the disk. after a few minutes, the line "macintosh HD appears to be OK" was returned so I rebooted the computer.
Finally I got to the blue screen, the Mac OSX dialog box popped up but is stuck here. It will not load any further past this point. The status indicator is blank (no little blue bar moving...)
I've done the apple hardware test
repaired the disk from single user and install disk
loaded in verbose mode
loaded in single user mode
done PRAM reset
SMC reset
all get stuck at this same spot
(nothing else connected expect mouse and keyboard)
Safe mode doesn't work (i've decided its because after the start up chime, the apple logo appears and then a minute later the pinwheel appears. I've tried releasing the shift button after each appear and neither work)
anything else I can try??

now all I get is the gray screen and immediately a kernal panic

My ipod touch 4 screen turned blue

After I downloaded the ios 6 update, my screen blinked on and off with the apple symbol, turned blank and then blue.
Now my screen goes into a striped screen with many different lines and colors!
I really wish that I didn't update to ios 6.
My ipod touch 4 is now screwed up!!!
Help fix it asap, as I need it for studying!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
You may have to try recovery mode and DFU mode more tha once.
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IBook G4 Goes to Blue Screen at Startup

Hi,
My iBook G4, which is over 2 years old, won't startup to my hard drive. When I start it up, I can get to the grey apple with the loading circle, and everything seems normal. Then it goes to the blue screen where it usually begins to load my operating system (Tiger OS X), except it just stalls at the blue screen.
I have tried the following fixes:
1.Starting in Safe Mode (holding down "Shift" at startup): the computer takes longer (a few minutes) at the grey apple screen with the loading circle, but then it goes to the blue screen.
2.Booting from my OS install disk (inserting disk and holding "C" at startup): no change in behavior.
3.Resetting PRAM: no change in behavior.
I have had to do a hard shut down ten times now because it just blanks at this blue screen.
Other details: Before it stopped starting up, I had been running out of hard drive space. The computer also was freezing on me as I worked in applications.
Any help would be very much appreciated. I would love to be able to save my hard drive, as much of it is not backed up (and yes, now I know the dangers of not backing up).
Thank you, David

I too am having the same problem, Blue Screen freeze at start up. My symptoms, and attempted repairs are identical, except I don't get to view the desktop at all after fsck -y, it just reboots and stalls at the blue screen. The one difference is that prior to trying to repair with fsck -y, the iBook would boot and when it stalled instead of the blue screen I would get a strobe like effect from the screen. After Fsck -y, I didn't get the flashing again.
Please Help someone
