Can't use HTML in XML tags anymore?

I've noticed with 1.1 that HTML that worked in an XML tag in
1.0 no longer displays. Spry seems to be taking what is in the tags
as a literal string. For the most part, I've been able to work
around this, however, I'm running into some issues now where there
are tags that are empty because a certain product just has nothing
to go in that tag. When that happens, it is being displayed on the
page as:
<td></td> and the style I'm calling on all
<td>'s (a bottom border) doesn't show since there is nothing
in the tag at all. I tried just putting a space, but white space
(when there is nothing but whitespace) is ignored and putting
results in the XML not loading correctly. &nbsp;
results in " " showing up in that <td> whereas in
1.0, it would've been a non-breaking space.
I guess what I'm asking is if there is a way to still get
HTML to display correctly or if there is some sort of workaround
for cells that end up being blank?

I completed deleted the old way, so I have to recreate this
from scratch...but here is how I used to be able to do it (which,
looking at how I do it now since HTML wasn't parsing, this was so
stupid).

the page specified in the href.

Embedding inline HTML data in XML using the mx:XML tag with < and >

What is best practice for embedding HTML within the
<mx:XML> tag? Programmatically, I can implement this
successfully:
[Bindable]
public var xmlDP:XML = <component data="<" />;
However, I get the following error if I try to store the same
data inline in an mx:XML tag, as such:
<mx:XML id="xmlDP">
<component data="<" />
</mx:XML>
Error #1095: XML parser failure: Unterminated attribute.
If I change the MXML tag as follows, it works fine:
<mx:XML id="xmlDP">
<component data="&lt;" />
</mx:XML>
Unfortunately, I also can not source the mx:XML tag to an XML
file which uses < or > codes, as it yields the same
results. This leads me to believe that the <mx:XML> tag does
not support the special character codes for < and >, but why?
Incidentally, this code also gives a 1095 error:
<mx:XML id="xmlDP">
<component data="<" />
</mx:XML>
This is causing an issue with my source data as it is not
hand typed into Flex, and standard XML supports the < and
> codes. I have tried a full HTML string, as shown below,
but this also generates the error:
<mx:XML id="xmlDP">
<component data="<b>Test</b>"
/>
</mx:XML>
Many thanks for any input you may have!

I’m generating the XML source file with
Microsoft’s XML Notepad 2007. It will encode invalid special
characters automatically. My understanding is that this is the
proper way to handle the less than symbol in a XML string, that is
to say using the < code.
With respect to the escape and un-escape methods, I am able
to successfully implement these in AS, but not in MXML. This makes
sense considering they are AS methods, but I was hoping to be able
to do something like:
<mx:XML id="xmlDP">
<component data="escape('<');" />
</mx:XML>
This gives the following compilation error:
The value of attribute "data" must not contain the '<'
character.
As does using the escape character as such:
<mx:XML id="xmlDP">
<component data="\<" />
</mx:XML>
Below is an example of what the escape character may be used
for in AS:
var myString:String = "\"";
trace(myString);
// result: "
Likewise, I can escape the < character as such:
var myString:String = escape("<");
trace(myString);
// result: %3C
<mx:XML id="xmlDP">
<component data="%3C" />
</mx:XML>
trace(un-escape(xmlDP.@data));
// result: <
As you can see, using %3C and unescaping in AS will yield the
correct result; however, this is not a practical method of
representing the data in MXML as I would have to write an AS method
to un-escape the XML string anyway, so I might as well just store
the data in AS to begin with. I was hoping for a way to source an
mx:XML object, without having to load it into ActionScript
manually. Here’s an example of the functionality I would
expect:
<mx:XML id="xmlDP">
<component data=">" />
</mx:XML>
trace(xmlDP.@data);
// result: >
Only this does not work for the less than symbol. I’m
assuming at this point that this is a bug in the Flex compiler.
Thanks again for your help troubleshooting this one!

Can i use HTML tag in text when sending contens as "Attachement(PDF)".

Hi all!!
i try to add html tag on ibot email text column.
is it possible?
- in ibot delivery content.
send content as Attachment(PDF)
"if sent as attachement, include this text" <--- mark this field
and below multi line input column, can i use html tag, for example,
Yahoo
thanks in advance.
Edited by: vingorius on 2010. 10. 31 오후 7:27

hi vingorius ,
No you cant include html but u can use variables
To add a variable in a text message to provide context for the iBot attachment
1. Click the following option:
If sent as attachment, include this text
2. Type the text into the text box with a session variable, a repository variable, or a presentation variable using the syntax shown in the following table:
Variable Type
Syntax
Repository @{Variable_Name}
Session @{NQ_SESSION.Variable_Name}
Presentation @{Variable_Name}
For example, Dear, @{NQ_SESSION.Variable_Name}, here is your personalized Weekly Sales Territory Update.
NOTE: If you want to use the @ character, you need to precede it with the \ (back slash) character to separate it from the variable syntax. For example, Dear @{NQ_SESSION.DISPLAYNAME}, \@ New York, appears as Dear Joe Smith, @ New York.

Embedding html in xml tags, when rednering text as html

Quick question,
I have a site that reads all content from an external xml.
The text box that reads this info renders the content as html; does
anyone know how to go about putting an html tag in an xml tag so
that flash can read it?
So would it be possible to do:
<content>
" Welcome to the site<br>we are happy to have you

</content>

How can i find and replace xml tags?

Hi, i am using xml in my workflow and want to be able to remove certain tags if they contain particular text.
here is an example of my xml structure…
<entry>
    <name>DEFAULT</name>
    <tel>DEFAULT</tel>
    <address>DEFAULT</address>
</entry>
I am using this initial structure to set the paragraph styles to be followed when the xml data is imported.
This leaves DEFAULT in place wherever an entry doesn't have any content for that field.
I want to be able to import my XML then run a script that removes any tags that include DEFAULT, - I need the entire xml tag to be removed not just the text, if i do a normal find and replace it will only remove the text not the tags which is causing problems with styling. I also want to remove the end of para/return (^p) that i've placed at the end of the line. So it would be the same as opening up story editor and removing the content + tags + hard return in there, but i want to automate the process…
So i think this is what i need to search for in each case
"<name>DEFAULT</name>^p"
and i want to replace it with nothing ""
Can this be done through scripting (ideally javascript)?
I have a little knowledge of javascript but am not sure how to search and target that kind of string in indesign...
using indesign cs5
many thanks

Hi,
Script should do it in two steps:
1. find all occurences of i.e. ">DEFAULT<"
2. remove whole paragraph which is a found_text's container.
For example this way -JS - (a textFrame filled with your text should be selected) :
var mStory = app.selection[0].parentStory;
app.findTextPreferences = null;
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = ">DEFAULT<";
var myF = mStory.findText();
var count = myF.length;
while (count--)
     myF[count].paragraphs[0].remove();

How to use HTML or XML described visual forms for data entry in Java app?

Hi,
We are considering to use HTML as a mean of configuration for visual content and layout of data entry dialogs in our Java GUI applications. Java program will need to be able to populate/collect data into/from dialog controls. I am guessing that JEditorPane and FormView classes could be used for this but I have not figured out yet how to do this.
I would really appreciate any help you could provide with respect to this. Please share any tips, utilities, references, etc. Maybe one can suggest non-HTML (e.g. XML, UIML, ...) way to achieve the same requirements and recommend some utilities respectively.
Thanks.

Just to clarify, we need a solution for Java application (no applet, no web server, no servlets, no JSPs, no EJBs).

Can I use c:out JSTL tag with int values?

This is the code:

Your OrderFormBean class needs to implement a getNumOtaModulesSelected method for that to work. The expression language won't let you get at fields, you need to access it via JavaBeans properties.

Can't use older versions of Skype anymore?

Alright, so I hate when things update, and usually I just put up with it for new innovative features. I was very content with Skype 5, and the upgrade to 6.0 was frustrating, but I dealt with it. Never at any point during my use of 6 did I prefer it to 5, even as time went on.
Finally, we get to today. I was forced to download Skype 7, and it is the most horrible, buggy, frustrating thing ever. I can barely do anything without it randomly freezing, or spiking in memory usage. I'm using the right version for my computer, my computer is very up to date on hardware, and I've had no software problems with ANY other program to this magnatude. And that's BESIDE the fact that Skype 7 just looks DISGUSTING. The organization of my recent messages and contacts is downright attrocious and I can barely keep my recent replies in check.
The worst part is that I can't downgrade to a better version. After STRUGGLING to find an older version, it just tells me that Skype can't connect. Are you serious? I'm being FORCED to use this useless piece of junk? I've used a LOT of Skype (at least 5 hours a day daily since I got it.) And I think this is the last straw for me. I don't know what to do, I can't use this version, it's terrible.
The question I'm posing in this thread, is how do I use an older version of Skype. If the answer is "I don't." Then I'm uninstalling and never coming back.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have the same problem. This morning my skype decided it was time to update itself. Even though (of course), it shouldn't even check for updates or ask me to update. Or at least these are my settings...
However, this has happened before. But before, when skype updated, I could just uninstall it and install the version that I want to (keeping an exe with the proper version always did the trick). The things is that when I tried to install my older version after uninstalling, skype installer says that servers are down. Meaning that skype has stopped working with these older versions. They are now forbidden to install (even if you find an installer somewhere and OldVersion and OldApps have stopped support for skype).
I am seriously considering forgetting about skype and using an alternative. Some people have mentioned the emoticons and the general layout of the new version that disgusts them. But I will also add that the way we used to send pictures over skype is now changed. And it's horrible! Sending a link with the shared photo is just waste of time. You'd need to open a browser, log in, open the photo and download it just so you can have it on your computer (wtf??). Adding to this is the decrease of its quality and resolution and the missing name of the picture.
Thank you for reading (a potato).
