Getting characters in a particular xml tag type during Sax parsing.

How do I get the text within a certain XML tag using the parser. I can use the parser which will get me all the text in all the tags, but how do I get the ones I need only.
For example:
<channel id="south-east.bbc1.bbc.co.uk">
    <display-name lang="en">BBC1</display-name>
    <display-name>1</display-name>
</channel>
<programme start="20040217233500" stop="20040218000500 +0000" channel="south-east.bbc1.bbc.co.uk">
    <title lang="en">Film 2004 with Jonathan Ross</title>
</programme>how do I get the text 'Film 2004 with Jonathan Ross' without getting the others?

Well, the SAX parser just gives you the start/end tag
information to a handler, right? So if you just use
the SAX parser to get one item, then you could do it
by running thru the entire XML file to get that item
then get another item. Clearly this isn't the best
way to do it.... The handler should put the data for
the whole document into some data structure, or use
DocumentBuilder to get a Document object. I see. Yes, that is not the way to use SAX. It's kind of an inside out way of doing things. If you using SAX you should know everything that you want before parsing and grab all of them in one fell swoop.
If you want to get an in memory representation, the JDOM package is a whole lot eaiser to use than DOM.

Getting unwanted values between the XML tags in XSLT mapping

Hi Folks
I have come across a very strange situation with my xslt mapping.
I am getting unwated values "11" between xml tags
as follows
<Tag>0001</Tag>
11
<DataID>3</DataID>
I am not sure why I am getting these values in between the tags. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi David,
Here is the code fragment where these 2 tags are mapped, FYI, the source is an IDOC message. The unwanted "11" is coming After the <Tag></Tag> and <DataID></DataID>. FYI, Fof the element <Tag></Tag> its a default value. But for <DataID> </DataID> I have the mapping logic.
<Order>
            <OrderHeader>
              <Tag>009</Tag>
              <xsl:for-each select="E1EDKA1">

How to filter particular xml tag value using -DBMS_XMLGEN / DBMS_XMLSTORE

Hi,
I am using dbms_xmlgen and dbms_xmlstore package to extract xml datafile tag value from file server to oracle database table.
I have used the below pl/sql program to extract the xml tag values to oracle relational table.Its working fine for me.
But I would like to extract the values based on particular filter condition.
The following xml program I have 3 rows I would like extract the xml data based on the following condition .
Filter condition
==============
the tag <STATE_ABBREVIATION> value shuold be 'CA' and the <CITY> tag value should be Palo_Alto then I will store the ZIPCODE
ZIP_CODE_EXTN,STATE_ABBREVIATION tag values in the Oracle Relational table.
The below pl/sql program storing all the three rows but I required the values based on the filter condition that I mentioned earlier.
Kindly assist me what are the steps that I need to change in this program.?

How to get the value in the XML tag?

hi all,
i am new to JAXP. i tried the sample program provided in the following link. it just counts the number of tags in the XML file. XML file name is given as command line argument.
Now, if i want to display the value in the XML tag( say <NAME>xxx</NAME> in this tag i want to display the value 'xxx' ), what has to be done?
how can i achieve this?
please help...
link of the sample program:
http://xml.apache.org/~edwingo/jaxp-ri-1.2.0-fcs/samples/SAXLocalNameCount/SAXLocalNameCount.java
thx in advance,
-Soni.

implement this method the same way you have startElement...
public void characters(char[] ch,
                       int start,
                       int length)
                throws SAXException

How to get a text between two XML tags?

Hello everybody!
I've got a problem! How can I extract a text that is between tags, like <myTag> My text </myTag> I have no problem to get the attributes inside the tags, however, i don't know how to get some text that is between tags. Here is my xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<tangram_request service_id="3">
<send keep_session="nada">
<source></source>
<destination>3196931566</destination>
<channel_id>2</channel_id>
<text>Teste ServerSocket!!!</text>
</send>
</tangram_request>
Now, there's a fragment of my code, which gets some tags' attributes:
DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();
InputSource resp = new InputSource(new StringReader(XML));
parser.parse(resp);
Document doc = parser.getDocument();
Node node =(doc.getElementsByTagName "tangram_request")).item(0);
if (node instanceof Element)
Element el = (Element) node;
service_id = el.getAttribute("service_id");
System.out.println("\n\nService_id="+service_id);
}else{System.out.println("Erro");}
node = (doc.getElementsByTagName("send")).item(0);
if (node instanceof Element)
Element el = (Element) node;
keep_session = el.getAttribute("keep_session");
System.out.println("keep_session="+keep_session);
}else{System.out.println("Erro");}
Now, I want to get the texte between <destination> ... </destination>
How could I do that?
Thanks a lot
Calegari

Thanks... It worked fine!!!
Now how can I get lots of <desctination>... I did something that haven't worked...
node = (doc.getElementsByTagName("destination")).item(0);
while(node.hasChildNodes())
destination = node.removeChild(node.getFirstChild()).getNodeValue();
System.out.println("destination="+destination);
And now, my XML is like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<tangram_request service_id="3">
<send keep_session="nada">
<source></source>
<destination>3196931566</destination>
<destination>3196931567</destination>
<channel_id>2</channel_id>
<text>Teste ServerSocket!!!</text>
</send>
</tangram_request>
Thanks so much!

Getting the 'name' of an XML tag

I am trying to get the 'name' value out of an XML tag. Here is the XML that I am parsing:
<param name="param_name">param_value</param>
I can get the values 'param' and 'param_value' using the node.getNodeName() and the node.getNodeValue() methods.
I need the value of "param_name" though because in the situation that I am in, this is how the node values are determined.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Hello,
"name" is called an attribute of the "param" element. You could try to take a look at the getAttributes() function (node.getAttributes().item(0)).
I hope it helps.

How to deal with empty tags in a SAX Parser

Hi,
I hope someone can help me with the problem I am having!
Basically, I have written an xml-editor application. When an XML file is selected, I parse the file with a SAX parser and save the start and end locations of all the tags and character data. This enables me to display the xml file with the tags all nicely formatted with pretty colours. Truly it is a Joy To Behold. However, I have a problem with tags in this form:
<package name="boo"/>
because the SAX parser treats them like this:
<package name = boo>
</package>
for various complex reasons the latter is unaccetable so my question is: Is there some fiendishly clever method to detect tags of this type as they occur, so that I can treat them accordingly?
Thanks,
Chris

I have spent some time on googling for code doing this, but found nothing better, than I had to write in by myself.
So, it would be something like this. Enjoy :)

By the way, there is a new feature in Java 5.0 (Tiger) called "Annotations."
Since your code extneds DefaultHandler, you could specify a line with
@Override
before the definition of each of your methods. If you had used these, the compiler would have given an error since your methods did not override the methods of DefaultHandler.
(If your code implemented ContentHandler, by contrast, using @Override is invalid because you need to implement all of the methods defined in the interface definition.)
The other comment is that the safest way to handle characters() data is to use a StringBuilder/Buffer (StringBuilder is only valid in 5.0, StringBuffer has been around since Release 1.0) that you define in the startElement method. Use the append method to gather data presented to you in the characters() method and use toString() to harvest the data in the endElement method.

Rename particular XML Tag

Hi Indesign Experts,
          I'm confused a lot in the below issue. I'm have a indesign document. In the xml structure, If i select a element, and trying to rename the selected item's markupTag.name, it's changing all the elements with the selected elements name....
I use the below code to run after selecting an xml Element.
app.selection[0].markupTag.name="test";
But the output look like the below.
But I want onlu to rename the selected xmlelement.
Any idea to perform this?
Thanks and Regards,
Vel.

Hi,
       Thanks a lot Jeff...
        I'm doing a huge program with lot of tasks. While doing that,my mind didn't strike to check if the tag is not already exist, then only to create new tag... Thanks for all of the indesigner experts for their replies...
I used the following codes with ur idea.
                    var renamewith = textbox1.text;
                    try
                        alert(app.activeDocument.xmlTags.item(renamewith).name);
                        if(app.activeDocument.xmlTags.item(renamewith).name)
                           var testTag = app.activeDocument.xmlTags.item(renamewith);
                    catch(e)
                        var testTag = app.activeDocument.xmlTags.add({name: renamewith});

                    dblVal = new Double(elemChars);
                    row.setHeat(dblVal);
                    indexId = row.getIndexxId();

          else if (elemName.equals("IndexREDId")){

     } // end method endElement
     public void characters(char buf[], int offset, int len) throws SAXException {
          // If at end of element, there will be no characters
          if (tagPosition == TAG_END) {
               return;
          // The characteres method may be called more than once
          // for an element if the internal buffer fills up.
          // Append the characters until the end of the element.
          String strVal = new String(buf, offset, len);
          elemChars = elemChars + strVal;
     } // end method characters
} // end class MarkItIndexLoader
but the problem is i want to read (parse) any XML file means any Elemets would be change any time using SAX .In the above example
else if (elemName.equals("Heat")) {
else if (elemName.equals("IndexREDId")){
} else if (elemName.equals("Maturity")) {
like above I am doing hard code Elements names and reading the values so i don't want hard coding the elements names I want to read any element name and value dynamically.
If i give any one below XML file i want to read the Elements and displaying to console without changing any code i want to read the XML document.
EX:
Student.XML: <root>..</StName>..</StAge>...</root>
Employee.XML: <root>..</EmpName>..</EmpAge>...</root>
CdCatalog.XML: <root>..</Cdtitle>...</CdNumber>...</root>
I need one java program can ready any type of XML file elements and send to the Database table.
Please any one done like this task please suggest some reference links or books or sample snippet which can help me to develop program in my requirement.
Thanks in advance

satish

You should ask in the Java forum.

Create custom XML tag, Flex 4.6

hi all
I have a question.
I have the following tag:
<tns:dynamic xmlns:tns="urn:sap-com:document:sap:soap:functions:mc-style">
</tns:dynamic>
The dynamic part should be dynamic.
I have tried the following code;
<tns:{actionscript.variable} xmlns:tns="urn:sap-com:document:sap:soap:functions:mc-style">
</tns:{actionscript.variable}>) ;
But i get the 1110 error; Missing XML tag name. So i do something wrong.
Does anybody know how to solve this?
Kind regards,
Ant

You're not adding your filefilter as an argument of browseForOpen.
ie: browseForOpen("Apri", filterTesto);
But it might not make any difference:

And from the actionscript refence:
"Note: On Android devices, the file dialog title cannot be set. The title parameter is ignored."

How to read value within XML Tag data using IO Stream in Java

We have xml data into a Stream and we need to extract values again into a Stream from the particular XML tag <Data> inside the Stream. PFB the sample XML which will be contained inside the stream and can someone help us to hint the java code for this. We require it using the IO API only and we need to look <DATA> for the begining of the stream and </DATA> as the end of the stream.
Please note that input is stream and output require also is a stream.
<?xml version = "1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<GenericDataEnvelope>
<DataFormat>PlainText</DataFormat>
<Name>1111</Name>
<Security>NA</Security>
<senderName>abc</senderName>
<Protocol>HTTP</Protocol>
<Data>
SElQRlhDVElQRlBCTktERUZGMDYxMDAyMDc0MzUyMDAwMTA2MTAwMjA3NDM1MlRDSEFTVVMzMzAw
MDAwMDAwMDAwMTc4LDEyMDAwMTc4MTIKezQ6TVQxMDM6CjoyMDowMDYwMDQ5MjQxMDA2NzcwCjoy
M0I6Q1JFRAo6MjNFOlNEVkEKOjMyQTowNjEwMDVDQUQwLDAxCjozM0I6RVVSMCwwMQo6MzY6MSwz
TNzcwQU5WLVJFTlRFIE9DVCAwNgowLDAxLzEsMTcxOQo6NzFBOlNIQQo6NzI6L1JFQy84NDM2MTU3
MTA2Ci19ClRJUEYK
</Data>
<DataType>INVOICE</DataType>
</GenericDataEnvelope>

The example you've showed is valid and it is also text.
Think seriously about this ... for example, do you have a rule that says </DATA> can't appear in the binary data?
But in any case I can't see the problem. If you want to use IO classes directly, just read lines until you see <DATA>, then read data until it ends with </DATA>, and remove that.
But I would certainly use SAX myself until proven otherwise that it won't work..

Output to the printer printing xml tags with actual output

Hi,
we are calling fnd_request.submit_request with 'XDOREPPB' and assigning a printer to it.
the output that is getting printed has both the xml tags and the actual output.
anyone has any idea what might be the reason.
Regards,

Got the solution. These tags are getting generated from standard report and we can use <columnname>[1], <columnname>[2]... etc if there are multiple tags with same tag names.
