HTML encoding with JTextPane

hello,
I'm using JTexPane to edit rich text in my application.
I set the editorkit with
pane.setEditorKit(new HTMLEditorKit());
and I create a new document for editing with
pane.setDocument(pane.getEditorKit().createDefaultDocument());
but when I enter text in the pane with accent like "j'ai mang� une pomme" , the method pane.getText() return my html document encoded with ISO-10646 aka Unicode where the "�" is é
I try to create the editorKit for the ContentType "text/html; charset=UTF-8" but it doesn't work.
How can I change the encoding to UTF-8 ?
Please help me ...

hello,
I know your problem (i'm french), but i don't know how to resolve it easily.
you can get the HTML code by using
pane.getText();and change manually characters...

HTML Encoding of output with special language characters ie. Umlaut

Greetings,
Application: Crystal Reports XI RDC Runtime engine.
Output format with error: HTML
Sample Data row passed as a recordset to crystal by MS SQL Server.
lahenduse tähtaja testimine;;High;Top;C;1;01/01/2010;05/04/2010;05/04/2010
HTML encoding:
lahenduse t?¤htaja testimine
When the output of PDF or Excel are selected charaters with umlauts, tilds, etcu2026 over the letters are displaying correctly.
When the output is HTML the encoding is messed up.
Has there been a fix for this runtime engine regarding this issue?

Ludek,
The following link http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/communityCS/FilesAndUpdates/crXI_rdc_merge_modules.zip would be the correct update pack link I am looking for.
http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/additional_downloads/runtime.asp
As it is the runtime engine, not the crystal developer that is having the problem.
For completeness I have upgraded my developer CR XI Release 1 to SP4.

I will post again later today, once all the upgrading has been completed.

How to embed image in html when using JTextPane, HTMLEditorKit, JavaMail

I am developing a specialized e-mail client that has to be able to send e-mail messages (in html format with images and attachments) that can be read by standard e-mail clients, and receive similar messages from standard e-mail clients.
I have everything working except for embedding images.
Images are to appear in the document mixed in with the text, but that's not what I mean by "embed". By "embed" I mean that the image itself is encoded within the html.
Here's a bit of code to set the context.
JTextPane bodyPane = new JTextPane();
bodyPane.setEditorKit(htmlEditorKit);
bodyPane.setTransferHandler(new DropHandler());
bodyPane.setDocument(new HTMLDocument());
In the DropHandler I have the following:
HTMLDocument htmlDoc = (HTMLDocument) bodyPane.getDocument();
HTMLEditorKit htmlKit = (HTMLEditorKit) bodyPane.getEditorKit();
int caretPos = bodyPane.getCaretPosition();
At this point get "filename", the full path to an image file that has been dropped onto bodyPane.
String htmlString = "<img src=\"file:///" + filename.replace("\\","/") + "\">";
htmlKit.insertHTML(htmlDoc, caretPos, htmlString, 0, 0, HTML.Tag.IMG);
This works just fine. The image is displayed in the document at the point of insertion.
However, the image itself is an external file. I need to send an e-mail with this image and could send the image file as an attachment, but I obviously can't assume that the recipient of the email is going to save the attachment into the proper location.
What is the best way to do this?
There is a technique for embedding the actual image in the html, using this syntax:
String htmlString = "<a href=\"data:image/png;base64,---mimed png image here--\" alt=\"Red dot\"></a>";
I can't get this to work in JTextPane, so perhaps it's not supported. Also, there may be limitations on the size of an image. And apparently Internet Explorer doesn't support this.
From what I read, using a "content identifier", that is, "cid:" and adding the image as another part of the e-mail message is probably the thing to do. I haven't taken the time to explore this yet.
Does JTextPane support cid? Is that a nonsense question? I suspect what I need to do when the message is being composed is use absolute paths to local files with the images, and then when assembling the e-mail, attach the files and rewrite the html to build in the cid linkage. Similarly, when reading a message with cid's, the thing to do is save the body parts as files and rewrite the cid to point to the actual file.
I have seen others ask similar questions, one as recently as last December, and the reply was to refer to a Sun tutorial. But that tutorial doesn't address the full problem of 1) inserting an image into a document (instead of attaching an image to a component) and 2) sending it as an e-mail message.
I have yet to see an example that shows the complete package.
Am I right that the data option I mentioned is not going to work?
Am I right that cid is the best approach, and do I understand how to use it?
Is there something else?
Thanks
John

Hi Rocky,
Are you using the DC?
if yes then you need to put the image inside the component folder. after that close the application
& reopen. You will get the image.
In case this does not work then try refreshing the portal through server side. Once the cache is cleared, it will be up to view.
Also check the Activity list you have created. It should be added to the dtr properly or else it wont be reflected once reimported the configurations.

Steps to UTF-8 Encoding with Oracle 8i and Weblogic 6.1SP1

What are the Steps to UTF-8 Encoding with Oracle 8i and Weblogic
          6.1SP1?
          I have:
          - Oracle 8.1.5 database created with character set=UTF8 and national
          character set=UTF8
          - Weblogic 6.1SP1 without any encoding mechanism set
          (though I did play with
          <jsp-param><param-name>encoding</param-name>
          <param-value>UTF-8</param-value>
          </jsp-param>
          in the weblogic.xml for a while though it seemed not to make a
          difference)
          - JSP pages set to content='text/html; charset=UTF-8'
          - JSP form POSTs set to enctype="UTF-8"
          I can copy and paste Chinese Kanji from a UTF8 encoded web page into
          form text boxes but when I post the data it comes back as different
          Kanji. Then once it is posted the Kanji stays the same on repeated
          posts. The same Kanji text also looks different when viewed in a form
          text box than when viewed as straight text on the page.
          Is there anything else? Or am I already encoding characters twice?
          Please help!

Payload type of wav files encoded with gms codec

Hello everybody,
I have an application which receives and plays alaw formated wav files using JMF(with the help of some additional libraries) . I want to use lower bandwidth for my application. A quick google search indicated that i can do this by using gsm format.
I have 2 questions:
1-) what are the differences between .gsm files and .wav files which are encoded with gsm codecs? Which one's quality is better? which one's compression ratio is better?
2-) which payload type should i use for wav files which are encoded with gsm codecs?
In [Rtp Payload list|http://www.iana.org/assignments/rtp-parameters] page, there is a gsm entry whose payload is 3. I suppose that is for files with gsm extension. I tried it but it didn't work with my wav sample (as u can guess it was encoded with gsm 6.10 codec)
Any suggestion is appreciated. If you have a comment about the main problem (which is using lower bandwidth for sending audio data) i would also like to hear it
Thanks in advance
btw i also tried this [gsm sample|http://www.nch.com.au/acm/sample.gsm] with payload 3.At first it worked but then strangely it played just static. In Sun's page it says gsm format is supported. I played both ulaw and alaw succesfully so i wonder what i am doing wrong. Do we need to tell the player that it is going to receive data in gsm format? I didnt do such a thing for u-law and a-law formats...

On the sender side, make your processor take in whatever kind of supported file you want. Set the processor to output your GSM mono, and then you can just use a Player to play it on the other side. It's really not very different than the examples...
[http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/solutions/AVTransmit.html]
When you're programming the tracks, and you're calling "setFormat" on them, just set their format to be gsm.
[http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/solutions/AVReceive.html] should be able to play this out of the box...

XML parser fails to convert html encoded text nodes

Under the strain of large documents this defect rears its ugly head more often. While parsing a text node containing html encoded chars i.e. < > &; etc...
The parser will seemingly forget to change the chars at random, 99.9% of the time everything is ok and the proper conversions take place:
< -> <
> -> >
&; -> &
Once an error occurs it is reproducible until the text node is changed ( values and/or order ) then it is a crapshoot again.
These tests were done using the default UTF-8 encoding, here is the exception thrown by the parser along with a portion of the text node before and after the first parsing.
Let me be clear, the parser actually succeeds the first time but the transformation of the HTML encoded pieces possibly fails. It is on the parsing of the text node value as its own document that the parser fails.
Error 0 : Error parsing XML string! Line :: 1, Column :: 65674

Jerky encoding with UscreenCapture

I have Abobie Flash Encoder 2 and have jerky video on all
encoding. I use UscreenCapture as a capture device. I can run up
the stream to 1000kbps and still have jerks on pans. This renders
all videos unusable.
This may be a problem with UscreenCapture but I have smoth
playback on the output window.
I have changed settings to best framerate.
MAchine Windows Xp 3.2 ghz with 1 gig ram nvidia 7300
sample here www.whatsignal.com/flash/flvplayer.html
I don't know how to fix it unless maybe I need a different
screen capture utility.

Well I find this filter is quite good in 'masking' block artifact that codec like xvid, or other low compression codec have. I only apply it if I find the block artifact is too much and I find this filter is less offending to my eyes than the block artifact.
In manual it said that if you have noisy video and want to lower the size then you can use this filter. It also blur the video a bit. But I suspect it is more than blur as I try gaussian blur in time line and the result is not as good. You can see the result as well. There is the tab between source and target and you can compare the result by togling between source and target tab.
BTW, anyone with 1 core, dual, or quad core, can you tried to encode with it? Just cancel it after few minutes as I want to see what is your processor utilization with this filter on. Also you can see how long does it take to process this video from the 'estimation time left'.

HTML in a JTextPane

I am displaying simple html in a JTextPane. I've built simple pages with <Input> tags, I load them in the JTextPane and it works - looks great. I can input into these fields, but my question is how can I programmatically get the entry values I've made?

Hi Puce thanks for the comment.
Actually I am never submitting this web pages - I created a component to display web pages and gather the resulting input into a Properties file. The purpose of this is to be able to create sophisticated setup/configuration screens (images, layout, etc) in J2SE using html, so like I said I'm never submitting the pages.
Anyway, I worked out how to do what I needed - I subclassed the HTMLEditorKit and kind of hacked what it's doing. It's pointless, but pretty sweet.

Can't create dynamic html elements with jsp????? important

Hi All,
I am having problem creating dynamic html elements with jsp tags, i have tried to use EL and java scriplet, both of them don't work.
i am trying to create dynamic menu in my "rightMenu.jspf", based on, if user has logged in or not.
some like this!
<jsp:if test ="${validUser == null}">
some simple text menu here
</jsp:if>
but it is not working. it simply loading all and images with in statement, regardless of whether user has logged in or not. i think some how if statement is not working properly.
"validUser" is a session bean, which is not creating at this point, it will created when user will log in successfully. and also this session bean does not exist at the page, where i am trying to check that .
Is there any way to create dynamic values in jsp. It is really important, is there any body who help me in this matter. i would be really grateful.

hi jaspre,
thanks for replying me. you know what, is it not something wrong with web.xml file. i remember once, i deleted some from there, a property with "*.jsp". i can't remember what exactly was it though.
all if statements works on files ending with extension ".jsp" but don't work only on with extension ".jspf". there must be to do with this.

Zoom Feature with JTextPane - URGENT

Hi..friends...
pl. suggest me way for adding Zoom In and Zoom Out Facility in My JAVA Application with JTextPane which displays Document .
previously i 've done similler with java.awt.Canvas using java.awt.Graphics2D.scale method....but noe i am confused about how use that method with JTextPane.
Thanks,
TP.

If you need to zoom only text (not the whole html page with images, etc ...) you may look at StyleSheet.getFont() method. All the HTML views fetch their font through this method and if you override it in your own StyleSheet implementation you may substitute your font with increased size.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Anton.

A tree-view in HTML page with nodes generated with java script in run time is not visible in the UI Automation Tree. Need Help

I have a HTML page with an IFrame. Inside the Iframe there is a table with a tree view
<iframe>
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<treeview id="tv1"></treeview>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</iframe>
In UIA, i am able to traverse till the tree view but not able to see it.
I have used the TreeWalker.RawViewWalker Field to traverse the node from the desktop Automation.RootElement.
I tried to use AutomationElement.FromPoint method to check whether i am able to get that element. Fortunately i was able to get the automation element.
i tried to get the path to root element from the node element using the TreeWalker.RawViewWalker. I was able to get the parent path to the root element.
But trying the reverse way like navigating from root element to tree node, was not getting the element for me.
Please help me with suggestions or inputs to resolve this issue.

Thanks Bernard,
It works fine with JInitiator but not working with
the JPI. For JPI what settings I need to do ??hi TKARIM and Bernard, i am having similar problem even with the Bernard's recommended setup. could you post the webutiljini.htm (i presume you are using config=test) ?
i am actually using jinitiator 1.3.1.28 with Oracle HTTP Server of OAS 10gR2) calling Forms Server 6i (f60cgi). After setting up according to Bernard's recommended setup steps, the java console showed that it loaded the icon jar file when it could not read the form, but it skipped the loading of the icon jar file once it read and started the form. How do we specify in the form to pick up the icon from the jar file instead from a directory ? Or do we need to specify ? Any ideas ?
Thx and Regards

Problem with JTextPane and StateInvariantError

Hi. I am having a problem with JTextPanes and changing only certain text to bold. I am writing a chat program and would like to allow users to make certain text in their entries bold. The best way I can think of to do this is to add <b> and </b> tags to the beginning and end of any text that is to be bold. When the other client receives the message, the program will take out all of the <b> and </b> tags and display any text between them as bold (or italic with <i> and </i>). I've searched the forums a lot and figured out several ways to make the text bold, and several ways to determine which text is bold before sending the text, but none that work together. Currently, I add the bold tags with this code: (note: messageDoc is a StyledDocument and messageText is a JTextPane)
public String getMessageText() {
          String text = null;
          boolean bold = false, italic = false;
          for (int i = 0; i < messageDoc.getLength(); i++) {
               messageText.setCaretPosition(i);
               if (StyleConstants.isBold(messageDoc.getCharacterElement(i).getAttributes()) && !bold) {
                    bold = true;
                    if (text != null) {
                         text = text + "<b>";
                    else {
                         text = "<b>";
               else if (StyleConstants.isBold(messageDoc.getCharacterElement(i).getAttributes()) && bold) {
                    // Do nothing
               else if (!StyleConstants.isBold(messageDoc.getCharacterElement(i).getAttributes()) && bold) {
                    bold = false;
                    if (text != null) {
                         text = text + "</b>";
                    else {
                         text = "</b>";
               try {
                    if (text != null) {
                         text = text + messageDoc.getText(i,1);
                    else {
                         text = messageDoc.getText(i, 1);
               catch (BadLocationException e) {
                    System.out.println("An error occurred while getting the text from the message document");
                    e.printStackTrace();
          return text;
     } // end getMessageText()When the message is sent to the other client, the program searches through the received message and changes the text between the bold tags to bold. This seems as if it should work, but as soon as I click on the bold button, I get a StateInvariantError. The code for my button is:
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
          if (evt.getSource() == bold) {
               MutableAttributeSet bold = new SimpleAttributeSet();
               StyleConstants.setBold(bold, true);
               messageText.getStyledDocument().setCharacterAttributes(messageText.getSelectionStart(), messageText.getSelectionStart() - messageText.getSelectionEnd() - 1, bold, false);
     } //end actionPerformed()Can anyone help me to figure out why this error is being thrown? I have searched for a while to figure out this way of doing what I'm trying to do and I've found out that a StateInvariantError has been reported as a bug in several different circumstances but not in relation to this. Or, if there is a better way to add and check the style of the text that would be great as well. Any help is much appreciated, thanks in advance.

Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
Can't tell from you code what the problem is because I don't know the context of how each method is invoked. But it would seem like you are trying to query the data in the Document while the Document is being updated. Try wrapping the getMessageText() method is a SwingUtilities.invokeLater().
There is no need to write custom code for a Bold Action you can just use:
JButton bold = new JButton( new StyledEditorKit.BoldAction() );Also your code to build the text String is not very efficient. You should not be using string concatenation to append text to the string. You should be using a StringBuffer or StringBuilder.

Populating HTML Page with fields from a Report

Greetings all,
I think I have finally figured out how to format my question about customizing reports
I am using the Sample Applicaiton and I created a simple report (PAGE 20) using the DEMO_CUSTOMER table. The simple report shows the CUSTOMER_ID, CUST_FIRST_NAME, CUST_LAST_NAME
I created a blank page (PAGE 21) with an HTML Region. In the HTML region I have created an HTML Table with Two Columns and 3 rows:
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>CUSTOMER ID</td>
<td>rVALUE OF CUSTOMER ID</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>FIRST NAME</td>
<td>rVALUE OF CUST_FIRST_NAME</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>LAST NAME</td>
<td>rVALUE OF CUST_LAST_NAME</td>
</tr>
</table>
On my report page 20, I created a link from the Customer ID and I wanted to know if I could populate the Table I created on Page 21 with say a P21_CUSTOMER_ID field and when I click the link on page 20 it redirects to page 21 and P21_CUSTOMER_ID = #CUSTOMER_ID# just like I would do for a formatted report. I added items to page 21 called P21_CUSTOMER_ID, P21_CUST_FIRST_NAME, P21_CUST_LAST_NAME
but I don't know how to get their values into the table that I created. Do I have to make an html form element and reference it? Make fields hidden? Not sure How to populate the table I created with the values that are passed into page 21 and any help would be appreciated. I am sure however I identify the variable I could then just use that same formatting and use Styles and Divs to make the page look like I want and just reference the same way, but unsure of how to do that.
Any assistance you can provide would be very much appreciated. I am trying to create a report view that looks like a web page with images, and the passed data would be populated throughout the HTML and not in a structured Tabular Format if that makes sense.
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
There are more than one ways of doing this.
Extending what you have done , heres how
Assumption : You are getting values in P21_CUSTOMER_ID, P21_CUST_FIRST_NAME, P21_CUST_LAST_NAME
Edit your HTML table , and refer to the P21 items with &P21_CUSTOMER_ID. notation as follows
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>CUSTOMER ID</td>
<td>&P21_CUSTOMER_ID.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>FIRST NAME</td>
<td>&P21_CUST_FIRST_NAME.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>LAST NAME</td>
<td>&P21_CUST_LAST_NAME.</td>
</tr>
</table>The other way is to create a Report with Single Row vertical layout template on Page 21 instead of the HTML region.

Generate HTML report with ANT

Hello,
I'm new to FlexPMD. I have just generated my firsts reports. I try to generate HTML reports.
I browse the documentation, this forum and the web and I find informations to :
- generate documentation with Hudson
- generate documentation with Maven
- generate documentation with XSLT pmd.xml -> html
Ok, I try to keep it simple. So I don't want to use Hudson.
I'm using ANT, and I currently don't want to install/learn Maven.
I'm using FlexUnit with ANT. And It's really simple to generate reports :
<junitreport todir="${report.flexunit.loc}">
            <fileset dir="${report.flexunit.loc}">
                <include name="TEST-*.xml" />
            </fileset>
            <report format="frames" todir="${report.flexunit.loc}/html" />
</junitreport>
I'm really new to FlexPMD, so I don't have currently a big knowledge, but it seems impossible to generate a HTML report just like junitreport. (1 line in an ANT task)
I test the XSLT transformation found on this forum (thread "XSLT pmd.xml -> html"). It's really cool. But it's seems difficult, for example, to extract the wrong code part and add it to the HTML page.
So, what is the simpler solution to generate HTML report just with FlexPMD/ANT ?
Thanks !

Hello,
Currently you generate a PMD report with ANT like this :
<! -- define taskdef -->
< taskdef name="pmd" classname="com.adobe.ac.pmd.ant.FlexPmdAntTask" classpath="${build.pmd.loc}/flex-pmd-ant-task-${flexpmd.version}.jar">
         < classpath>
             < path refid="flexpmd.base" />
             < pathelement location="${build.pmd.loc}/commons-lang-2.4.jar" />
             < pathelement location="${build.pmd.loc}/flex-pmd-core-${flexpmd.version}.jar" />
             < pathelement location="${build.pmd.loc}/flex-pmd-ruleset-api-${flexpmd.version}.jar" />
             < pathelement location="${build.pmd.loc}/flex-pmd-ruleset-${flexpmd.version}.jar" />
             < pathelement location="${build.pmd.loc}/plexus-utils-1.0.2.jar" />
         < /classpath>
< /taskdef>
then generate XML report like this :
< pmd sourceDirectory="${src.loc}" outputDirectory="${report.loc}" ruleSet="${build.pmd.loc}/rules.xml"/>
The XML contains some file nodes :
< file name="/Users/user/workspace/AS3_UTILS/src/utils/align/gridAlignSpaceNumber.as">
       < violation beginline="22" endline="22" begincolumn="0" endcolumn="27" rule="adobe.ac.pmd.rules.naming.TooShortVariable" ruleset="All Flex Rules" package="utils.align" class="gridAlignSpaceNumber.as" externalInfoUrl="" priority="5">This variable name is too short (3 characters minimum, but 1 actually). Detects when a field, local, or parameter has a very short name< /violation>
< /file>
The message is in the text node < violation>TEXT< /violation>
For me, we miss an important part of the message : the portion of the "bad" code.
It could be very usefull if PMD can generate something like this :
< file name="">
       < violation beginline="" endline="" begincolumn="" endcolumn="" rule="" ruleset="" package="" class="gridAlignSpaceNumber.as" externalInfoUrl="" priority="">
        < description>TEXT< /description>
        < code><CDATA[MY CODE
MY CODE
MY CODE]>< /code>
    < /violation>
< /file>
With this, we can generate "full" HTML report with XSLT transform easily.
I understand that it modify the standard XML schema of the output.
So, perharps it could be an option like this :
< pmd fullDescription="true" sourceDirectory="${src.loc}" outputDirectory="${report.loc}" ruleSet="${build.pmd.loc}/rules.xml"/>
What do you think ?
Thanks !
