Expert in xsl - stylesheets for unicode (UTF8)

Hi,
I am looking for an expert in xsl-stylesheets for unicode (UTF-8 format) in order to check the syntax of a stylesheet for the browser-based PI-Sheet in SAP ERP PP-PI.
Can you advise someone ?
Thanks & BR,
Miriam

Hi Kannan,
thanks for your answer!
Unfortunately this problem is a bit more tricky.
We are looking for so. who really can check the syntax of ~ 1.000 lines of XSL coding. The problem is that it cannot be converted to UTF8 because of syntax errors.
=> Do you have an idea who could help here?
Thanks a lot, best regards,
Miriam

XSL Stylesheet for Form with TEXT AREA not responding to DATASRC or DATAFLD

I have a stylesheet for Form which displays data in the input boxes for edit and re submit.
While all input text boxes show data from the database, TextArea box does not display the value for edit
<div align="left">
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
width="600">
<tr>
<td width="600" height="1">
<font face="Arial" size="2">17. Describe how
the accident or exposure
happened</font>
<textarea rows="3"
name="P_ACCD_TXT"
datafld="{ACCD_TXT}"
onblur="javascript:while(''+this.value.charAt(0)==' ')this.value=this.value.substring(1,this.value.length);"
cols="72">
</textarea>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
In other input boxes value="{column_name}" works, but value attribute is not available for textarea. both datasrc="{ACCD_TXT}" and datafld="{ACCD_TXT}" do not work.
Is it because datsrc and datafld are not supported. Would very much appreciate if some one can clarify on tthis and advise how to go about retreiving data into textarea box
Thanks

datasrc and datafld are Microsoft IE specific "data binding" attributes that are supported in the MS IE5 implementation of HTML.
What you likely want is just the standard HTML way of putting data into a <textarea> that you would do in XSLT like this:
<textarea>
<xsl:value-of select="ACCD_TXT"/>
</textarea>assuming that the current node has a child element named <ACCD_TXT> in the source document.

XSL stylesheet transformation of RSS feeds

Does Safari support XSL transformation of RSS feeds? Or does it always override XSL with its own RSS reader format? Details below:
I'm starting to mass-produce RSS feeds for our organization. We just want one file for each purpose which can be universally used in RSS readers, iTunes/other podcatchers, and web browsers. I created an XSL stylesheet for it which works perfectly in Internet Explorer, Opera, and Firefox (current release, anyway!), but Safari always adds the "feed://" prefix and displays it with its blue RSS reader format. Is there no way around this? If I take out the the <rss version="2.0"> header, it works, but then iTunes won't accept it.
Do I have to produce two separate files, the first without the RSS notation for Safari's sake, and the second with the notation for iTunes? That seems like an unnecessary step for us, and confusing for our users. Is there any way around this? I couldn't find any support documents that addressed this directly. Thanks -- Jim

You're getting a URL like this:context.getResourceAsStream("/Web-Inf/viewStudentDetails.xsl")and it looks like the MalformedURL exception is complaining about it. So my first step would be to look at it and see what's wrong with it.

Portability problem for XSL stylesheet

Hi,
I created a xsl stylesheet and a java program which just do the normal xml transformation. however, they works fine in my windows XP environment, but once i move them to my Red hat (linux) environment, they stop working... why this happening? from the exception error, the problem occurs when the stylesheet is loaded. some friends suggest that i should try to use different xslt processors, but how should i do this in the run time?
(I am currently using Xerces2.6.2 to vaildate xml file and do the transformation)
Thanks for any help

You should look at the stacktrace from the exception and fix your problem based on what you see there.
Or you could post it here so we don't have to guess...

Unicode-UTF8-Support for MaxDB?

Hello,
according to general information MaxDB just supports UTF16. If one is
facing the decision to migrate an Oracle 9.2 Non-Unicode-DB to either a Unicode-UTF16-MaxDB or a Unicode-UTF8-Oracle-DB, the answer probably would be to go for a Unicode-UTF8-Oracle-DB because the SAN costs used should be app. half of the MaxDB-SAN-costs.
Is UTF8-Support soon ready for MaxDB?
Thanks for your reply.
br
Chris

Hi Chris,
yeah, that note needs a small change (UTF-16 changed into USC-2).
Indeed, a 2TB DB under UTF-8 needs about 3TB under USC-2. So yes, one would need more space for MaxDB, but the TCO is not only dependent on the cost of the SAN. Easy admin, being reorganisation free are only a few of the examples which can drastically lower the TCO of a system. That added to the low cost of the MaxDB software itself <i><b>can</b></i> make a difference.
Because of other topics, which I cannot go into and currently have a higher priority, the UTF-8 support is planned long-term.
I'm not sure if this is allowed, but this (german) article is quite an interesting read:
<a href="http://www.computerwoche.de/produkte_technik/storage/581295/">http://www.computerwoche.de/produkte_technik/storage/581295/</a>
With the Unicode / ASCII mixture I just meant that for example a Unicode WebAS contains ASCII data aswell. Another example: in MDM there's an explicit distinction between the ASCII and UNICODE data. Our interfaces support all three (ASCII, UTF-8 and UCS-2).

Roland

How to specify stylesheet for attachments in Human task

Dear Experts,
I can able to add an attachment from BPEL process to Human Task. So from Worklist I can able to download the attachment. Here, I am attaching an XML payload, and I am receiving .xml file from worklist. Now I want to do xsl mapping with my attachment. To do that we have an option when creating Human Task from BPEL . In .task form, under advanced settings--> specify style sheets for attachments, specify wordML for attchments. I have used those options. But not yet my .xsl file mapped with .xml. Is there is any other way to do xsl mapping. Please suggest me.
Thanks,
Rajesh

Hi Anirudh,
I am using SOA Server suite 10.1.3.1 and JDeveloper 10g. Also I am not using "Application Server Developer's Guide for Microsoft Office Interoperability" this document, what you have mentioned in your last post. My problem is I am having xsl with me, need to map this xsl to my xml attachment. To do that we are having an option on .task form editor, Under Advanced Settings. We can mention/specify stylesheet for attachment, or we can specify wordML for attachment. I have tried both but I cant able to do xsl transformation. I have seen some code in this link. But I dont know whether this blog is correct one. Please suggest me.
Thanks,
Rajesh

Chinese characters or else with a driver db2 z-os Unicode (UTF8)

Post Author: fred_181061
CA Forum: Desktop Intelligence Reporting
Hi,
Is there anybody use or test this driver with a database DB2 z-os and tablespace declared in Unicode UTF8 ?
I notice that this driver is not supported by Business Objects.
Interface succeeded on html viewer (deski 3 tier)
Interface not succeeded on java (webi) or deski 2 tier
Thanks for your answer and best regards

I am also not an expert and haven't used DB/2 on z/OS but am using it on OS/400. I think your DBA is confused.
From what I have experienced setting commit control to CS causes more locking than RS. From what I can determine (which has been through trial and error so it may not be totally accurate) CS causes the database to exclusive lock all records in the cursor while RS will use shared locks. I do know from painful experience that if you set all your transactions to CS you will experience frequent update problems due to record locks. We had to go through and set everything to RS and, once we did, our concurrency problems were nearly eliminated. There are some instances that you have to use *CS, however, such as when a stored procedure returns a cursor, but the compiler will tell you about this.
Another thing that doesn't make sense is locks are typically implemented as data structures in memory and do not require much if any processor time. I don't know the specifics of DB/2 implementation but Oracle uses simple semaphores, so I would assume IBM does, too.
Also, from my experience, there appears to be no way around DB/2 locking. Having come from an Oracle background I find the amount of locking DB/2 does totally frustrating. It's not as bad as SQL Server but can become problematic at times. That is just my $.02 anyway.

How to use different stylesheets for ChangeAttributeRequest workflow in OAM

Hi,
We have a requirement to invoke different change attribute request workflows (change password ,change email etc..) from external JSPs..
I want to apply different stylesheets for each workflow. In the workflow URL if i enter style=stylesheet-name its not using that stylesheet. Always its using the same base stylesheet (wf_changeattr.xsl). How can i use different stylesheets? Any pointers on this is appreciated.
Thanks inadvance..
Regards,
Srikanth

Hi Colin,
Thanks for your response. Now i am able to invoke different xsls for different workflows.
I did a mistake by entering style=stylesheet-name. I verified the same with xsl=stylesheet-name.
Its working fine now..
Thanks & Regards,
Srikanth

Using xsl stylesheet with List View Web Part to display custom text

Hi
i have an xsl stylesheet with sharepoint listview webpart. The list view shows some items based on a filter. I want to display custom text such as "No Items" when there are zero items in the list view using the xsl stylesheet. How do i achieve
this. I have spent hours searching but couldnt find the exact answer. Please help me out. I am a light user not a hard core developer so I dont use Visual Studio. Thanks in advance

Hi
I have customised the list view webpart using a custom xsl file by including it in the xsl link of the list view webpart. So i think i need to include the condition in the xsl file itself else it wont work. Since the list view webpart isnt using the default
xsl. Please let me kknow if you have any idea about including a condition in xsl to check if there are not items in view.
The code of the xsl is included below.

XSL-FO for Standard Purchase Order, doesn't print page number

Hi,
I worked on XSL-FO code to custom the PDF output for Standard PO. Everything works great: I added company logo (in a different position of the standard commented code  ), i created new attribute sets to highlight some elements on the print, I added a footer with company details and document type and number (instead of placing this in the header, the costumer didn't like it where it was..)
OK. BUT: the page number at the bottom on the right isn't printed anymore. For example: if the PO page is n.1 of 2 pages, it comes only '12' and not Page 1 of 2. So i tought not to use the original template (tihs one)


<xsl:template name="pageNumber">
     <xsl:variable name="po_page">
     <xsl:value-of select="$BOILER_PLATE_MESSAGES_OBJ[MESSAGE='PO_FO_PAGE'][1]/TEXT"/>
     </xsl:variable>
     
     <xsl:variable name="string_before_page_num">
     
     <xsl:value-of select="substring-before($po_page,'Pag.;PAGE_NUM')"/>
     </xsl:variable>
     
     <xsl:variable name="string_after_page_num">
     
     <xsl:value-of select="substring-after($po_page,'/ ;PAGE_NUM')"/>
     </xsl:variable> ......
but inseriting a select just where I want the page num to be displayed (see code)
<fo:block xsl:use-attribute-sets="test_style" >
<xsl:value-of select="$BOILER_PLATE_MESSAGES_OBJ[MESSAGE='PO_FO_PAGE'][1]/TEXT"/>
                                                  </fo:block>
but this gave me as result 'Page &PAGE_NUM of &END_PAGE'.
Where did I do wrong?? It's like the PO_FO_PAGE message is not dinamically insered in the PDF. Hope I've been clear enough and somene can help me. Thaks in advance, Michele

Hi Michele:
I can check out for you how to print page number in XSL-FO (There is an O'Reilly) book, but I think I help you better by recommending a different strategy - Don't write XSL-FO stylesheets. While Purchasing does not support RTF templates you can still write RTF templates and convert them to FO using the XML Publisher Template Builder for Word.
Download the matching Template Builder for Word (5.0) or XML Publisher Desktop 5.5 (includes the Template Builder) patch and then Create your template as an RTF template.
You can then EXPORT the template as XSL-FO stylesheet and upload as to Purchasing AS LONG AS THE VERSION OF THE DESKTOP and E-Businees Suite XML Publisher MATCH.
If you still want to write XSL stylesheet, you can just use the Template Builder to generate you the code and paste the code (e.g. for page numbers) into your stylesheet.
By the way - Purchasing will support RTF templates in future versions...
Hope that helps,
Klaus

Xsl/stylesheet transformation problem in soap response(usinf xmlx-tags.tld)

Can i view an xsl stylesheet? My message log is formatted and I can't read it.

I have found a message log in My Downloads. When I try to read it, it's an xsl stylesheet. What is this? Why is it in this format, and can I convert it so I can read it? Thanks--need details--I don't know much about computers!

An XSL stylesheet usually contains layout rules for an XML data file, but not actual data. Maybe what you found is actually the XML data file, which refers to the XSL style sheet?
If it doesn't help to open it in a Firefox tab, try opening it in Internet Explorer or Microsoft Excel. Both have some capability to decode XML.

XSL Stylesheet syntax

In .xsl file,
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl">
What is this xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl" for?
and what is the different between xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform ?
Any help will be grateful.
Regards,

Thanks for your response Rick and I hope it resolves Kelly's issue. But I too would like to know exactly what the difference is between the two examples Kelly provided because I have run into an issue where some code will run with the first example but not with the second and vice verse and without knowing why the parser is reporting an error it's hard to know which reference to use when:
1. Exactly what does a parser do with a namespace (or other URI) reference that causes it to treat the two examples differently?
2. Is there any documentation (or freeware source code) available that might show how namespace (and other) references are used to validate?
3. Does the parser compare the given string with a hard-coded string in the parser to see if they match? Does the parser look the URI up on the net to see if it exists? Does it do something like:
if uri = 'xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl"' then load namespace values from new.txt
else if uri = 'xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform' then load namespace values from old.txt
Thanks again!

Oracle Database Migration Assistant for Unicode (DMU) is now available!

Oracle Database Migration Assistant for Unicode (DMU) is a next-generation GUI migration tool to help you migrate your databases to the Unicode character set. It is free for customers with database support contracts. The DMU is built on the same GUI platform as SQL Developer and JDeveloper. It uses dedicated RDBMS functionality to scan and convert a database to AL32UTF8 (or to the deprecated UTF8, if needed for some reasons). For existing AL32UTF8 and UTF8 databases, it provides a validation mode to check if data is really encoded in UTF-8. Learn more about the tool on its OTN pages.
There is a new Database Migration Assistant for Unicode. We encourage you to post all questions related to the tool and to the database character set migration process in general to that forum.
Thanks,
The DMU Development Team

HI there!
7.6.03 ? Why do you use outdated software for your migration.
At least use 7.6.06 or 7.7.07 !
About the performance topic - well, you've to figure out what the database is waiting for.
Activate time measurement, activate the DBanalyzer with a short snapshot interval (say 120 or 60 seconds) and check what warnings you get.
Also you should use the parameter check to make sure that you don't run into any setup-induced bottlenecks.
Apart from these very basic prerequisites for the analysis of this issue, you may want to check
SAP Note 1464560 FAQ: R3load on MaxDB
Maybe you can use some of the performance features available in the current R3load versions.
regards,
Lars
p.s.
open a support message if you're not able to do the performance analysis yourself.

How to estimate the time needed for unicode conversion

Experts:
I am going to perform an upgrade from 46C (non-unicode) to ECC6/EHP4.
In the action plan , it's hard to estimate the time needed for unicode conversion.
We do not have a sandbox to benchmark that time.
Could you please help share your experience here?
Thanks!!

Hi,
usually it is very hard to estimate a proper time.
There are some hints to get a rough feeling (SAP note 857081 and [SMP link|http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000380759&_OBJECT=011000358700001279022010E] ).
However please note that SAP highly recommends to do a Sandbox conversion - otherwise there is a high risk that the PRD conversion will take (much) longer than expected.
Best regards,
Nils Buerckel
