How to use '*' character in element names ?

Hi,
I have to use '*' character in element names. But, it throws DOMException. is there a workaround to use such illegal characters ?
thanks in advance...

No, there is no work around as such. The '*' character is not a legal character in a tag name (it means zero or more in DTD content specifications).
http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xml-20040204/#NT-Name
What does the star mean? Replace it with something more meaningful. The closest thing to a work around is using "-star-", but then you have to replace dash with "-dash-" and it all gets a bit silly, and won't really add meaning to the tagname.

Klaus,
If you download from http://www.ilivid.com/ then you get a dmg file with the iLivid application and, oddly enough, VLC.
I'm not about to open the application on my machine, however!
To the OP: just download the disk image file, double-click it and it will mount like a disk and drag the iLivid application to your application folder. Do so at your own risk - it just looks fishy to me.

Oracle DB: How to parse XML where element names are non-standard ?

I'm in the unfortunate situation that I have illegal XML that I would like Oracle to parse. By 'illegal' in my case is that there are element names that start with an illegal character, such as a digit. Apart from this the XML is syntactically valid.
Here is an example of the XML I have stored as a column in the database:
<schedule>
    <1stweek>
    </1stweek>
    <2ndweek>
    </2ndweek>
</schedule>Right now I'm doing text search-and-replace on the XML text before I let Oracle parse it, for example replacing '<1stweek>' with '<x1stweek>' and so on. Needless to say this is very slow.
My question is if there is a way to tell the XML parser in the Oracle DB (I'm using version 10.2) to be a bit more forgiving ? ... so that it will accept element names that start with e.g. a digit ? I know that such an option exist in some XML parsers but what about Oracle's and if so how to set the option?
And before you ask I'll answer myself: No, I'm not the one who created the non-standard XML. It is from a third-party application which I cannot change myself and cannot get the vendor to change either.
Thank you.

if you cast your clob to an xmltype then you can search and extract values based on tags.
Heres an example where the table is a clob and value is cast and I'm looking for an existing attribute_name.

How to use the same element in different photoshop files?

It occurs to me often that I use the same element in different photoshop files, a header or footer shown in the example below. So when the footer changes in one document, I need to change this footer in every other single document.
Is there a possibility to use some kind of template, one single document, that can be placed in different files , which is still editable afterwards?
Thanks in advance.
I'm using Photoshop CS6

In a single document you can have several pages and these pages may have headers and footers that share smart objects. If you replace the contents of the an embedded smart object on one page page that is shared on an other page the pages you will see both pages contents are changed. For they share the common object. It is also possibly to have independent smart object layers. It depends how you create the layers in the single document.
Example one sharing a smart object hi-light a smart object layer and use menu layer>Duplicate Layer... This will create a second smart object layer that share a common smart object. Each layer has is own associated transform. Do it again and you will have three layers the share a common smart object. So you can use each layer associated transform to position and size the layers contents. Make a picture package for example. When you hi-light any of the three smart layers and you use menu Layer>Smart Objects>Replace Contents... all three layers contents will be replace with the new smart object. Care must be taken to replace the smart object with an identical size object for only the object is replaced the three associated transform for the three layers are not replaced or changed.
Example two independent smart objects hi-light a smart object layer and use menu layer>Smart Objects>New Smart Object via Copy. This will create a second smart object layer that has it own embedded smart object copy. Do it again and you will have three all have independent embedded smart object that are identical. However they do not have to remain identical. For example if the first smart object layer was created by using ACR to open a RAW file as a smart object layer the embedded object is a copy of the raw file and its associated RAW conversion settings. Double clicking on one of the smart object layers and you will see ACR open on its embedded RAW file with the embedded RAW conversion setting. Changing these settings will update the layer smart object content with new ACR setting and pixel when you click OK in ACR. Repeat for the third and you will find you have three different raw conversions in Photoshop you can mask and blend together to bring out detail.
I think what your missing is that a smart object contains a copy of the original object. Changing the original after creating a smart object layer in document will not effect the smart object layer at all. Its independant from the original having a copy of the original. Only changes to the smart object layer and its embedded smart object effect smart object layers.

How to use '*' as data Element in the NTE(Edi 850) Segment

Hi All,
I am facing a field level error while using '*' in EDI 850 (NTE segment). '*' is also used as Data Element.
For Eg: NTE*GEN*My Text *goes here
Here, NTE02 should be My Text *goes here. So, how can I use "*" here without changing anything in the EDI message?
I have asked this question before
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/1668e8d8-ee99-4d79-961b-8d26f3a496f8/error-while-using-in-the-nte-edi-850-segment-where-is-also-used-as-data-element?forum=biztalkediandas2
The answer in the above forum was to ask client modify the EDI message.
Previously, our client was using a different technology (other than BizTalk) which was working fine with this format. So, they are insisting on this format only.
Thanks,

Sorry, the answer is the same.
It doesn't matter what EDI platform either side is using, the '*' in the field content conflicts with the '*' that is the element delimiter. That is invalid EDI, there is no way around that short of writing a custom EDI parser.
It's not clear if you're sending or receiving this message. But again, it's really doesn't matter.
1. Change the Element Delimiter to something other than '*'. < or > are not uncommon.
2. If you are receiving the EDI, create a custom Pipeline Component that "handles" NTE02 either by replacing the '*' with a substitute char or deleting it.
3. If you are receiving, you could add extra elements to NTE to accommodate extra fields (since that's how the parser will see them). Then you can join them again in a Map.

How to use AUTO in Mapping name for EDIFACT

Hi
I have a source which will be posting 2 diff kinds of EDIFACT to XI.
I want to use just a single channel where i want to configure my .sda module.
I've seen that we can use 'AUTO' in MappingName parameter, so that the mapping is chosen dynamically.
However,when i tried to do so, i get an error saying that the adapter cannot find the mapping in the classpath.
Can anyone guide me as to how to use the AUTO parameter?
If possible, provide a link for some blog where they are using it.

Hi Alok,
Reason behing not getting the EDI payload was missing of splitter configuration, you need to configure the splitter as
you need to use AUTO mappingName instead of specific mapping name
once you configure split parameter of bic to true, it will generate an attacments like KEY|MAPPINGNAME|ACCEPTED|MessageNo
then based on this configuration splitter will look for the same key in Seeburger workbench configuration and then generates a XI message (SXMB_MONI entry) ...
If you dont want acknowledgement of EDI and sure about the version of the mapping then you can configure the mappingName
directly instead of AUTO...in BIC paramter

How to use the same element in different Web-Services?

I have defined a web-services in two WSDL files.
I want to use the same type in this two services. Because if one service call the other one, it could pass the class it just got. Otherwise, the classes can't be casted.
Web-Service1:
public com.package1.State inputValue (com.package1.State state) {
return state;
Web-Service2:
public com.package2.State inputValue (com.package2.State state) {
return state;
}And now, If I call from the Service2, the Service1 and put
Service1.inputValue(com.package2.State state) ;
I can't do this, can't cast and so on. But I want my tool WSDL2Java, will create the same State.class for two Web-Services, like:
Web-Service1:
public com.package3.State inputValue (com.package3.State state) {
return state;
Web-Service2:
public com.package3.State inputValue (com.package3.State state) {
return state;
}Is it possible? How to define it in wsdl?
Thanks in advance.

You can certainly do this in WSDL, simply put your
common element in a schema file and "include" it into
each of your WSDL files. Obviously your element will
have to use the same namespace in all places.
I'm not sure whether wsdl2java can cope with
"include" statements in WSDL. I know plenty of other
similar tools, e.g. Axis and .Net tools, didn't
support this however they may have moved on since I
used them.
To get around this you have to "manually" include the
schema in each wsdl for code generation purposes.Thanks for the answer. I did as you said and it works fine.

How to use DNS server for name resolution for items which don't exist in active directory domain controller DNS

Dear Experts,
In our office we have a domain controller call it 'Office.com', all computers and corporate servers e.g. exchange, antivirus etc. are member of this 'office.com', it is also having a DNS. All users in office have there preferred DNS set to the corporate
DNS
We are working for ministry and offering services to them from our data center so have many servers which are for ministry but they are in our data center. For all these servers we created another DNS server which contains all entries for these servers in
forward and reverse lookup zones. In this DNS we also created a forward lookup zone for our corporate servers and zone name is 'office.com'
What we are trying to have is name resolution of all servers which are listed in other DNS build in our office on Win 2008 R2 for ministry servers
If the user change his preferred DNS to ministry DNS he can resolve the ministry server but then we can not control any thing through group policy since they are using other DNS and not the corporate DNS.
How this can be done ? like any group policy applied to corporate domain controller must take effect on users and in addition to this user must also be able to resolve server names in ministry project DNS
Please assist ASAP.
regards,

Hello,
ok so the GPO setting doesn't apply in any case.
Clients machines use the first DNS server in the list of configured ones on the NIC. If that one is available search for additional DNS servers will stop.
What i can not really understand is your description about the second DNS server. This should normally either another DC with AD integrated DNS, so everything is replicatedwithin AD replication or you use a secondary DNS on domain member server that pulls
the informations from the Master.
It sounds for me that you have configured a machine with DNS server role and created manually the zone with the same name as the domainand manually create there the required A records?

Question about: "How to Use Layers in Elements 2.0"

I have gone over the tutorial "Harness the Power of Layers" and I can not figure out how to open the example the tutorial is showing me. It says: Open the "start.psd" file in the Tutorials folder located inside the Adobe Photoshop Elements Application folder and a wooden doll appears and instructs you how to add the accessories.(hat, bag, shadow, etc.)
Where do I find or open "start.psd" and the doll with the accessories? Also, is there online instructions that show or animate the steps involved in "layers" using Elements 2.0, which I'd pay for. Thank you, Robert

Chris, I know this is simple, but I'm having a mental block :-(
Are you saying go to "My Computer" where I find "C:Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop Element 2/Tutorials ? I can open Adobe Photoshop Elements. I just can't find "start.psd" in the tutorials link... Can you explain it another way ? Thanks
oh, sorry, yes I'm running Windows XP, 1.5 RAM

How to use character styles in the Find/Change JavaScripts?

First, good luck to Ole. He's been so helpful (and such a good writer, too). All the best!
My Find/Change JavaScripts are running into trouble at line 159 of the ExtendScript Toolkit. The script is searching for a particular font, to which it should then apply a character style. I'm using the format I see in Adobe's "FindChangeList" sample text, but the script is still hitting a wall. What am I doing wrong? I'd like to have a working method for searching, not only for fonts, but also for finding a particular character or paragraph style and then applying a new style.
Simple stuff, but I'm roadblocked.
Here is the script so far:
//This script applies the DFKai character style to the Arial Unicode font.
text {findWhat:"", appliedFont:"Arial Unicode MS", fontStyle:"Regular"} {appliedCharacterStyle:"DFKai"} {include footnotes:true, include master pages:true, include hidden layers:true, whole word:false} Find Unicode font; change to DFKai character style.
Thanks for your help!
Gary Niemeier

You are absolutely correct. I don't know how those spaces got there! I copied the text from the "FindChangeList.txt" document, but somewhere along the way, a software program "helpfully" added the spaces. (Rest assured, it wasn't copied from AppleScript. I stick with JavaScript.) Anyway, the script now runs like a charm.
My thanks to you! Another "newbie" mistake easily spotted, eh?
One thing, though, if Adobe is reading this: please flesh out the "FindChangeList.txt" file for those who are not programmers/scripters. I'm just a normal InDesign user, and I really need examples of basic syntax in order to use the "Find/Change" script correctly. I'm referring to the syntax involved with finding or changing text with a certain character or paragraph style. I often search for styles, and those properties should be provided in the help file. A couple of samples are all that's needed. (I did read through the JavaScript reference guide provided by Adobe, and even in the "Find/Change" section, it did not provide this information!). Furthermore, I often search text for a specific font. Why isn't this syntax included as well? It would easy to do and would save users a lot of fumbling around.
Thanks again, all the best.

How to use the array elements

Hi, i'm trying to automate a questionary using array.
// In the compositionReady for the stage
sym.actual = 0;
sym.arr = [ "Hi","Love","You" ]              // This is my question array.
sym.checkArr = function(){                  // this the function that i use to check whis question of the array i'm going to use.
          sym.Question = arr[actual];      // i want to use the value "Hi", and then increase my "actual" var and then use the value "Love"
// In my symbol timeline i use a trigger, in that trigger i use
sym.stop();
sym.quest = sym.getComposition().getStage().Question;         // I'm getting the Question value;
sym.$("Ask").html(quest );                                                         //"Ask" is an empty textfield;
sym.getComposition().getStage().actual ++;                    // Increase "actual" for the nex time.
But the code doesn't work, i think the problem is the way i use the array index.
Please help!
Thanks =)

Hi there,
chino_10 wrote:
in te timeline trigger why did you use a local variable?
It's good practice to use local variables whenever possible. The quest variable will only apply to that trigger, and it won't carry over to another trigger in the same timeline. So when using a trigger to set the HTML of a text element in the same timeline, I find it cleaner to assign a new HTML value from a local variable.
chino_10 wrote:
and if you are calling the global variable "actual" from de compositionReady handler why didn'y you call it with all the path like "sym.getComposition().getStage().actual ++;"?
I think maybe I didn't express it as clearly as I could have. When you declare sym.actual in compositionReady, you actually have declared a variable scoped to the main stage symbol - it's not a global variable. To declare a global variable (which is not always best practice), your code in compositionReady would be:
actual = 0;
This actual variable would now be accessible from any element/symbol in the composition simply by assigning a value to actual. You may see how this could quickly get messy.
So getting back to variable scope: if you declare a symbol variable using sym.varName, then any element in the same scope can call it using sym.varName. So your main timeline triggers can call it without using the full addressing of sym.getComposition().getStage().actual++. Instead, you could just use sym.actual++. Less code, and easier to read. But if you wanted to call it from another symbol (outside of the scope of the main stage), then you'd have to use the full addressing to actually address the variable, i.e., sym.getComposition().getStage().actual ++.

KrisAre you saying you just need to access the database using different accounts? If that is the case, why dont you just update the connection pool settings like username and password with XXOBI_APP account which you are supposed to be using for OBIEE?

How to use 'query data source Name ' property in a block

I want to create a block using query and want to show the columns on a form.
Could you please tell me how can I do this?
Regards

Hi!
Create a new block manually.
Set the Query Data Source Type Property to FROM clause query.
In the Query Data Source Name Property write your query like you would
write it in sql*plus or toad but without a order by clause.
Set the DML Data Target Type Property to None.
Create items for the columns in your query.
May set the where clause and order by property of the block.
Build the form and execute a query in your new block.
