Clicking XML files automatically launches Big Bang game

I upgraded to Leopard recently, running version 10.5.4 on a MacBook. I use Text Wrangler to edit XML files but, since the upgrade, when I click on an XML file, it launches the Big Bang game. I have to right click on the file, and select "Open with" to select Text Wrangler. When I tried to set it to always open with Text Wrangler, I got a message that it will use this application to always open PBEM game files - which was hardly my purpose. It seems that the computer is mistakenly assuming that all xml files are pbem files.
I searched the knowledge base and found two threads relating to this issue. Both threads are marked as solved but, on closer examination, the issue of mis-identifying xml files does not appear to have been solved or recognised as a potential bug.
Can anybody help?

I was trying to use script editor for the wrong thing and have received advice to use another application which doesn't solve but gets round the problem, thanks, rob

Big Bang games sound disappeared....

have no idea how it happened, but all of sudden the sounds from the Big Bang games disappeared. System sound functioning normally, sound with video and itunes normal, and tried another game and it was fine. I deleted the Big Bang games, and reinstalled from the original install CD and same problem. did a compare on the Audio folders in both root/Library and user/Library and seem okay. this is not an issue to spend too much time on obviously, but was curious if anyone had any clues as to where I should look next to find a possible cause/solution.
thanks!

I have the 17" iMac Intel CD with 1.5 GB RAM and the usual 128 MB Vid Card. Everything seems to be working just great on the machine. Except, the problem I have had with the BBBG is that in Chess and Checkers, the game will always freeze at some point. The menu items, sound and the like all continue to play on but I cannot drag and drop the pieces any longer and they no longer light up when pointed to so the game is, essentially, unplayable. Sometimes it happens after a few initial moves and other times well into the game. So far I have only noticed this on Chess and Checkers and not the other games. This happens on both 10.4.4 and 10.4.5 (It also happens on the included OEM version of BBBG as well as the vendor's online download). I never have any other window/app open during the game. I have contacted the vendor who claims never to have heard about this. I supplied additional info that they requested about 2 weeks ago and never heard back from them. I would say the vendor is very much the monkey in this case and am very unhappy with the game performance and their support.

Is your question pertaining to an answer regarding JDeveloper, or you just want an XML file? If XML, have you considered looking at the Oracle db XML DB feature set?

XML files are being read as PBEM game file format!!

Hello,
I am trying to edit some .xml files in Script Editor but everytime I try to open them I am told :
'Script Editor cannot open files in the "PBEM game file" format'
(Double clicking the .xml file opens up the Big Bang game)
Does anyone know how to get round this? also is Script Editor the best application to use? I want to use an editor that has colours.
Many thanks, rob

Script Editor has one purpose - editing and compiling AppleScript.
I can't account for the wording of the error message, but for sure I wouldn't expect it to handle XML files directly.
You could use AppleScript to manipulate the XML data, but that's probably not ideal either.
What you need is a text editor. BBEdit would be my first choice, or its cheaper (read: free) sibling TextWrangler.
Both can handle any type of text file, including syntax highlighting for many structured files including programming source code.

Prepopulating PDF Fillable Forms with data from XML files

How can I get a PDF fillable form to open pre-populated with data from an XML file automatically? I've been using Adobe Standard 9.0 and am willing to upgrade in a modest fashion if necessary. I am aware of the Navigation method > Forms > Manage Form Data > Import Data. This works fine, however, my users are not smart enough to do tis much clicking and selecting. Is there an automated way to have this XML data merged into the PDF file on the fly. These files will reside on an internal local area network and will be operated on local PC's that will probably have Acrobat Reader ONLY. I have been told that the only way to accomplish this is through Java Scripting. I would prefer to do this the 'old fashioned' way of command line switches, but that does not appear to be an option. Does anyone have a sample Javascript that would accomplish what I am trying to achieve. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Sharon
The easiest way is:
- Open your PDF form within Acrobat
- From the File menu, import the XML form data into the form
- From the File menu, use Save As... to save the file with a new name.
The new PDF will be identical to the original one, but will have the data embedded in it. Voila.
If you want the same form to pre-populate with different XML files depending on the circumstances, or if you're generating the XML on the fly, then things get more complicated. (And more expensive.) As your consultant said, LiveCycle Forms is one option, but it is expensive (actually even more than 10K). There are other options, including Cold Fusion, custom servlets, etc.

Itunes Library.xml save automatically?

Is there a way that the itunes library.xml file that you export when clicking the export library button under the file menu can be saved automatically without having to click it everytime? Thanks

No... When I add a new song or video or something, I want Itunes to update the Library.xml file automatically instead of having to clicking export library every time. Is there a way?

Google indexing xml-files, how to prevent....

Hi developers,
maybe its a strange questions but i have a little dilemma.
I have some flash-xml sites and Google is indexing the xml-files.
When a user is searching (Google) and the text is inside the xml-file, the result of the search sometimes will be http://domain.com/file.xml
So when the user clicks on it only the xml-file is shown in the browser.
Question:
Is there a way to link or redirect the xml-file automaticly to the index.html of the site?
Or is there another way to prevent this?
Thanks in advance for any help!!!

You may get some help here, although this is not a AS1/AS2-related issue and is likely best taken to a web design forum such as http://forums.adobe.com/community/design_development/webdesign
Or better yet you might try Google itself. They do provide some direction for dealing with having things not indexed.

Web.xml file generation problem

Hi,
I am trying to create web.xml file automatically using "java weblogic.marathon.ddinit.WebInit
" command.
I got the following message in the command prompt:
Found Web components. Initializing descriptors
filters=0 servlets=0 tags=0
Above command is creating the web.xml and weblogic.xml files but it is not including
the servlet-mapping information. why?
Thanks,

It doesn't look like it found any servlets. You'd have to show me your
files if I'm to understand what's going on.

Is it possible that 1 RTF template with 1 xml file produces many PDF files

Hello,
We are using XML publisher with eBS.
As part of it, we've got treatments that generate invoices.
One treatment produces 1 big XML file with many invoices in it.
Currently, this big XML file generates one big PDF file with all the invoices.
I'd like to know if it's possible to keep the big XML file (with many invoices), and instead, generate 1 PDF file per invoice ?
Basically we would like to split the big PDF file into small PDF, one PDF file per invoice .
If it's possible, then, how can we do it ?
I hope my explanation is clear.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Olivier

Prepopulating PDF forms with data from XML file

How can I get a PDF form to open pre-populated with data from an XML file automatically? I've been using Adobe LifeCycle Designer 8.0 and there doesn't seem to be a way to do it. The closest I came was to use the ImportData method, but that only lets you specify a data file if the form is signed (certified), which these aren't and don't need to be because we're using them on an internal company web page. ImportData works if there is no file name, but then the user has to navigate to and select the correct file, which we can't rely on our users to do.
I've researched this problem for days on this and other websites and haven't found an answer (one Adobe advisor suggested purchasing LifeCycle Forms, which is not an option because it's a $10,000 software package and the company wouldn't authorize a purchase that steep). We will buy a less-expensive option if there is one. We'll even hire a consultant if we can find one to who can design a supportable solution. All suggestions will be much appreciated.

Hi Sharon

- Open your PDF form within Acrobat
- From the File menu, import the XML form data into the form

Applying REGEX-pattern into XML File

I have the following problem:
I have an xml-file. let's say...
<NODE><NODE1 attr1="a1" attr2="a2">
     <NAME> abc</NAME>
     <VERSION> 1.0</VERSION>
</NODE1>
<NODE2 attr1="a3" attr2="a4">
     <NAME> xyz</NAME>
     <VERSION> 3.1</VERSION>
</NODE2></NODE>I need to know "HOW can I get the values of <NAME></NAME> and <VERSION></VERSION> without using DOM.
Since my xml-file is pretty big and DOM will take much Memory, i want to avoid it.
Can anybody suggest some "Regex pattern" so that i can apply it on the xml-file (after converting into String)
Thanks in Advance

That worked perfectly. I assumed ( insert comment here ) that the members of the Properties objects were Strings, and therefore followed the same rules where "\" characters are concerned.
Thank you for pointing out the difference between the two objects, I am not sure how long it would have taken me to figure that out.

Create the missing server.xml files yourself

Paula and I created the missing server.xml files ourselves. The script is at the bottom of the post.
We badly needed the missing server.xml files to work on the customizations and Oracle was unable to solve this problem.
"I checked on our Automated Release Updates System found that we dont have server.xml that includes PosDelivSchedVO. This confirms that there is no patch available at present to provide you with this file.
As this is not related to coding issue,Support will not be able to log a bug with Development. You may log an Enhancement Request via Metalink, so that Development would review your requirement and if feasible would include this file at the time of future releases"

# This script is used to generate the missing server.xml files for $JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps/pos
# Usage: server.sh
# Note: This script has many hardcoded codes and it may generate the wrong server.xml.

# Check the codes before you use it.
# It's possible to write a generic version of this script to deal with more issues, like
# 1. dealing with the Oracle apps patches applied
# 2. only generates the missing server.xml files automatically

For BIOS Update: >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<

Hey guys real quick. So after updating to the new 7670IMS>310 bios so that I may use my GTX780s, I reinstalled with windows 8. Everything was fine until I was on teamviewer just last nite and upon switcing sides my bios got corrupted. How do I know you ask? Upon getting back into windows my LANS did not work so I had not internet connection. I tried uninstalling it from Device Manager and deleting it. After a few clrmos. I thought I would switch over to the other bios and see if the LAN works and it does because of the status lights because now it lights up. So I switch back to main bios and LAN works but it would not post whatsoever and just cycles through post finally ending with a " DE ". Not sure what the new LED DEBUG codes are but if someone could post it would be nice to be able to refer to it.
Anyways on win 8, no matter what it will not let me into windows And when it looks like it will...gives me "your pc ran into problems and we are collecting data and we'll restart after" message. After a few of these wonderful messages, I decided I was going to flash my bios again. It did look like I was sucessful until after restart it did the same thing. Going through post I saw 19,15 then shuts off. Does this and ends with "DE" pc still on but nothing. No windows.
I got lucky a few times and was able to get into my bios and decided I was going back to Win 7 64......I put the good ole XFX6990 back in and got windows 7 to reinstall and continue to flash my bios to an older one. I used your method before and it work> from 3.0 back to 1.5 then from 1.5 back to 1.2 for OC purposes. So i tried that method but it looked like it just reflash it with 3.1, odd.
So after a few restarts everything seems fine, no cycles just normal. When I reboot normal process no double boots or cycles this time so I thought hey, that fixed my corrupted bios somehow. I thought I gotten lucky.... So I switch out the good old 6990 and in with my 780s. Reinstalled win 7 and upon completion of windows update. Again with the cycles of 19,15 turns off does this again over and over like 5 or 6 times and ends with "DE"
And this is where I'm at atm. I remember when I DL'd the flasher and bios. I only saw 2 files which was " VALVE CHECK AND E7670IMS.310".
When I tried to do it again with the same method as the first I have "
#BIOS
#BK_6.Z7
#EFIFLASH
#MSIHQ(icon)
#MSIHQ_INFO
#MT420"
This time it does not go through the same when flashing, just tells me bios update complete. I've done this a million times and all have been successful.
Basically I'm still on 3.1 bios but I 'm curious as what other methods do you suggest I try now? I have left everything alone after reinstalling windows and updates. Everything seems okay, reboots fine no cycles and still get the random hit or miss with 15,19 turns off cycles and ends with "DE". Would like to get a resolution if possible. Thank you and I know I said real quick right, but really. Thanks for any help.
I'm going nuts!!

How to Save XML file in the same directory as the swf file automatically?

Hi all,
I'm really new here with flash and actionscript 3, so i might not make any sense, probably. Any input is greatly appreciated.
So here's my problem, i'm trying to make a Top Score history for a flash game, which i load from an XML file. The problem comes to when i want to update the XML file. how do i do that automatically without prompting the user (ofcourse). I want it to be saved automatically to the same directory as the flash file.
here's my code right now, but it prompts the user where it wants to be saved, which i don't want to happen:
var xml:XML = <XML>
                    <topScoreList>
                    </topScoreList>
              </XML>;
for(var i:Number=0; i<10; i++)
     var Record:XML = <Record>
                         <score></score>
                         <playerName></playerName>
                    </Record>;
     Record.score.appendChild(topScores[i].toString()); //topScores[] -> class variable containing scores
     Record.playerName.appendChild(topNames[i].toString()); //topNames[] -> class variable containing names
     xml.topScoreList.appendChild(Record);
var ba:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
ba.writeUTFBytes(xml);
var fr:FileReference = new FileReference();
fr.save(ba, "topScoreList.xml");

yeah that makes sense, actually - after reading a dozen more forums. It's really weird tho that flash doesn't have a Buffer writer, unlike other programming frameworks.
But yeah, thanks. i'll start reading on flash.net.SharedObject, correct ? Thanks.
Anyways, if anyone out there has a different input, will be greatly appreciated!!
