HTML held in DOM (as XML) rendered onto JEditorPane

I am interested to know if anyone out there has any ideas on the following?:
I am holding an html document as a DOM object as it is part of an xml message (which undergoes various transformations) that is passed through our software.
The problem is that to do this I have had to make the html into a 'well-formed' xml document (which doesn't conform to html 3.2)
Basically this causes problems where I want to use html elements that forbid end tags (e.g. or <img>), in that the DOM when written out contains these end tags (so becomes or
This actually works fine in IE (as it's quite lenient to these things) but when you put it in a JEditorPane it displays a spare > (not quite sure on it's logic!).
So... does anyone have any good ideas?? My only thought was to extend the HTMLEditorToolKit to be more lenient with these but that strikes me as being a bit hard! I know I can get around it by putting spaces in for things like img (e.g. <img src="bla.gif"> </img> displays fine whereas <img src="bla.gif"></img> displays the image and then a > symbol!)

If anyone is still interested in this tread, an article was written on this subject and ways to work around it:

Parsing HTML to get DOM structure

I have been looking at the various XML libraries such as JTidy, HotSax, Xalan, Tagsoup, htmlparser, etc. trying to find a library which would allow me to parse some HTML, retrieving the DOM structure of the document, without trying to make it any better.
My goal is to write an application which is able to go through a huge bunch of html templates to modify some parts of it, and since these can be footers, headers, or just pieces of content, I don't want some HTML and BODY tags to be automatically generated...
Is there any way I could achieve that? All the libraries I tried ended up generating some extra HTML in the DOM structure which I wasn't able to get rid of...

Well, what I'm doing is a program which can process existing HTML templates so that I can refactor some patterns we have targeted to make everything more uniform.
Thus I want to be able to read HTML code, alter it, and then produce the result without adding any extra tags guessed by a cleaner. The reason is simple, since the templates are only pieces of a final page, I don't want to end up with <html> tags inside every template piece!
Oh and it is true that TagSoup is SAX based, but I mixed it with Xalan so that it produces a DOM tree. Here's the resource I found which helped me do that:

How to get multiple html output file from an xml document via xslt?

Hi,
the purpose is to generate multiple html output file from one xml file
depending on special tag.
exp: i have an xml file which contains sevreral articles so how to get each article section in an independant html file

Not a standard feature of XSLT. But Michael Kay's XSLT implementation, SAXON, provides that as an extension. Get it here:

XML rendering in IE and Netscape

Hi all,
I have a simple servlet that streams xml data to the browser. When I view the page in IE it is formatted in the DHTML tree structure but with Netscape 7 it is messed up. However when I open an xml document directly in Netscape, it works! My JSP page has an IFrame that streams the XML data. Can someone let me know why XML rendering does not work in Netscape but in IE? Do I need to set some browser specific parameter in my servlet?
Many thanks

Oracle 8i - XML rendering

The XML twp and iFS overview refer to XML parsing and rendering
in relation to iFS. If we are interested in XML rendering only,
do we require iFS ?

If you need XML Rendering only, you will need to wait for our XSL
Processor which is currently in development. No announced time
for beta as yet.

How to display Xml in a JEditorPane(in an applet)

Hi All,
I have an applet and i want to display xml in a JEditorPane in an applet. This xml document has a xsl attached to it for transformation. How can i do the transformation??
Help or sample code or link to a sample code is highly appreciated!!!!
Thanks
Ragu

Look this servlet which does a transformation. JEditorPane could call this servlet (with the method setPage) to do the transformation:
public class SampleXSLTServlet extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet {
public final static String FS = System.getProperty("file.separator");
// Respond to HTTP GET requests from browsers.
public void doGet (javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response)
throws javax.servlet.ServletException, java.io.IOException
// Set content type for HTML.
response.setContentType("text/html; charset=UTF-8");
// Output goes to the response PrintWriter.
java.io.PrintWriter out = response.getWriter());
try
javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory tFactory =
javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory.newInstance();
//get the real path for xml and xsl files.
String ctx = getServletContext().getRealPath("") + FS;
// Get the XML input document and the stylesheet, both in the servlet
// engine document directory.
javax.xml.transform.Source xmlSource =
new javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource
(new java.net.URL("file", "", ctx+"foo.xml").openStream());
javax.xml.transform.Source xslSource =
new javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource
(new java.net.URL("file", "", ctx+"foo.xsl").openStream());
// Generate the transformer.
javax.xml.transform.Transformer transformer =
tFactory.newTransformer(xslSource);
// Perform the transformation, sending the output to the response.
transformer.transform(xmlSource,
new javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult(out));
// If an Exception occurs, return the error to the client.
catch (Exception e)
out.write(e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace(out);
// Close the PrintWriter.
out.close();

Modify HTML of the document of the rendered page and reload

Currently i am loading a url in javafx through webengine.load(url). My requirement is to keep the styling in tact with the original page. However, once the page is rendered, the fonts are not loaded and i am unable to increase the font sizes. I worked through the following steps to achieve this.
1. Add a listener through getLoadWorker method for web engine and get the document object when the state is SUCCEEDED.
2. Transform the document to a html string which gives me the whole HTML of the page in a string including the css.
3. Then i do a replace on the css part with the actual location of the font files (absolute path url) and reload the html through loadContent method.
With this, i am able to get the fonts loaded properly.
Problem:
1. I end up with a infinite loop when i use the "webEngine.loadContent(string, "text/html")" inside the getLoadWorker method.
2. I tried to do that outside the getLoadWorker method before the webEngine.load(url) but in this case the replace html body string is coming as null.
Any help on how to achieve this?? Below is my code:
 webEngine.getLoadWorker().stateProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener<Worker.State>() {
 String htmlBody = null;
 @Override
 public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends Worker.State> observableValue, Worker.State prevState, Worker.State newState) {
 //To change body of implemented methods use File | Settings | File Templates.
 //String htmlBody = null;
 int count = 0;
 if (newState == Worker.State.SUCCEEDED) {
 browser.requestFocus();
 // Get the document object from Engine.
 Document doc = webEngine.getDocument();
 try {
 // Use Transformer to convert the HTML Object from the document top String format.
 Transformer transformer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
 transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.OMIT_XML_DECLARATION, "no");
 transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.METHOD, "html");
 transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.INDENT, "yes");
 transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.ENCODING, "UTF-8");
 transformer.setOutputProperty("{http://xml.apache.org/xslt}indent-amount", "4");
 StringWriter outWriter = new StringWriter();
 transformer.transform(new DOMSource(doc),new StreamResult(outWriter));
 StringBuffer sb = outWriter.getBuffer();
 htmlBody = sb.toString();
 // Replace the font-family attribute in the style section to the actual URL of the font being used.
 htmlBody = htmlBody.replace("font-family: medium", "font-family: url(http://1.10.30.45:8080/fonts/Md.ttf)");
 // Load the new HTML string to the Engine.
 //webEngine.loadContent(htmlBody, "text/html");
 } catch (Exception ex) {
 ex.printStackTrace();
 webEngine.load(url);
 //add the web view to the scene
 getChildren().add(browser);

James,
I tried the document manipulation but was unable to override the css that was already applied. I downloaded and used jdk 8 which has the latest version of javaFX which fixed the font loading issue. Now i can see all the custom fonts and everything getting loaded as part of css.
However, when i try to capture the state of the worker, it stays in the running and not changing to success. First few instances, the page was loaded successfully but then it stopped. Any idea if this is due to the new javaFX version of jdk8? Below is the code snippet:
 webEngine.getLoadWorker().stateProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener<Worker.State>() {
 @Override
 public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends Worker.State> observableValue, Worker.State prevState, Worker.State newState) {
 //To change body of implemented methods use File | Settings | File Templates.
 System.out.println(newState);
 if (newState == Worker.State.SUCCEEDED) {
 browser.requestFocus();
 // Get the document object from Engine.
 Document doc = webEngine.getDocument();
 System.out.println(doc.getDocumentURI());
 webEngine.load(url);
 //add the web view to the scene
 getChildren().add(browser);
The output is
SCHEDULED
RUNNING
and nothing after that...

Java servlet, DOM and xml help! please urgent!

I have to write a servlet that takes the user input to build a xml document using DOM API and should be able to append new entry to that xml file whenever any user adds an entry.

DOM to XML String

Hi,
I'm trying to transform a DOM object into a string of xml, but somehow it only outputs the first line.
What did I do wrong?

 StringWriter out = new StringWriter();
 StreamResult result = new StreamResult(out);
 Transformer xformer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
 xformer.setOutputProperty("encoding", "iso-8859-1");
 xformer.setOutputProperty("indent", "yes");
 xformer.setOutputProperty("{http://xml.apache.org/xslt}indent-amount", "4");
 xformer.transform(source, result);
 return result.getWriter().toString();Thanks!

Hi DrClap,
this is how I constructed my DOM object:
 public Document processDoc() throws Exception {
 URL u = new URL("http://www.weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca:80/city/pages/bc-74_metric_e.html");
 DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
 DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
 // in doc
 Document inDoc = builder.parse(u.openStream());
 // out doc
 Document outDoc = builder.newDocument();
 // grab <div id="citytextf">
 Element inElement = inDoc.getElementById("citytextf");
 Element rootElement = inElement;
 // grab <h2>
 inElement = (Element) inElement.getElementsByTagName("h3").item(0);
 System.out.println(inElement.getTextContent());
 // create output root element
 Element outElement = outDoc.createElement("vancouver");
 outElement.setAttribute("issued", inElement.getTextContent().substring(11));
 rootElement = (Element) rootElement.getElementsByTagName("dl").item(0);
 // iterate thru city <dd>, <dt> tags
 NodeList tempList = rootElement.getElementsByTagName("dt");
 Element tempIn, tempOut;
 for (int i = 0; i < tempList.getLength(); i++) {
 System.out.println(i);
 tempIn = (Element) rootElement.getElementsByTagName("dt").item(i); // grabs <dt> value
 tempOut = outDoc.createElement("day");
 tempOut.setAttribute("name", tempIn.getTextContent().trim());
 tempIn = (Element) rootElement.getElementsByTagName("dd").item(i);
 String input = tempIn.getTextContent();
 (tempOut.appendChild(outDoc.createElement("high"))).setNodeValue(getHighLowValue("High", input));
 (tempOut.appendChild(outDoc.createElement("low"))).setNodeValue(getHighLowValue("Low", input));
 (tempOut.appendChild(outDoc.createElement("note"))).setNodeValue(getNoteValue(input));
 System.out.println(((Element) tempOut).getAttribute("name"));
 outElement.appendChild(tempOut);
 return outDoc;
 }which is suppose to output XML like this:
<vancouver issued="Issued 6.30 PM PDT Saturday 16 April 2005">
<day name="Tonight">
 <high></high>
 <low>6</low>
 <note>Cloudy. 60 percent chance of showers. Risk of small hail this evening.</note>
</day>
<day name="Sunday">
 <high>12</high>
 <low></low>
 <note>A few showers.</note>
</day>
<day name="Monday">
 <high>13</high>
 <low>6</low>
 <note>A mix of sun and cloud.</note>
</day>
<day name="Tuesday">
 <high>13</high>
 <low>6</low>
 <note>Sunny</note>
</day>
<day name="Wednesday">
 <high>15</high>
 <low>7</low>
 <note>Sunny</note>
</day>
</vancouver>
 But all it outputs is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>I just started learning XML in Java so there're probably things that I missed out on.
Thanks!

Render HTML inside Excel, using Open XML

Hello guys,
I am creating excel file using, Open XML.
The data will be coming from database, and can contain HTML tags.
e.g. some sample text 
I want the HTML to be rendered inside excel sheet, so that user can view well formatted excel..
Please, Help me out

Hi J_Prasanna,
I'm afraid that it's not possible with OpenXML SDK, but it's possible if you use Excel PIA along with Internet Explorer. Use the Internet Explorer COM object to render the HTML content, then copy the document, use the Paste method of the Worksheet object
to paste the text with format.
Dim IE As Object
Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
With IE
.Visible = False
.Navigate "about:blank"
.document.body.InnerHTML = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value
.document.body.createtextrange.execCommand "Copy"
ActiveSheet.Paste Destination:=Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1")
.Quit
End With
The code is similar if you use managed project.

Transform DOM as XML ????????

Hi Friends
I have created a DOM for an XML file and then I edited that DOM.
Now Please if it is possible to TRANSFORM that DOM again as an XML file instead of HTML file.
One mode thing if i have a dom and I want to add CDATA to specific NODE how do we do it .. Please let me know.
Any help would be great.
Thanks

How to add a CDATA section to a NODE, provided that the DTD allows a CDATA section to be added to a NODE you can do the following:
This is the general idea: you will have to check if it compiles.
//Create a CharacterData node from a Document. The document represents a DOM which was either created from an xml file or is being created on the file.
CharacterData cdata = document.createCDATASection("The character data");
//Find the node that you want by using a search algorithm:
public boolean findNode(Node root, String elementName,
CharacterData cdata){
if(root instanceof Text){
System.out.println("element is a text node");
return false;
//if you have found the node with local name ==
//elementName. Then append the cdatasection as a
//child
if(root.getLocalName().equals(elementName)){
System.out.println("Found Node");
root.appendChild(cdata);
return true;
if(!root.hasChildNodes()){
System.out.println("element has no children");
return false;
//Run through the children for root and for each //recursively see if any of their children is the desired node.
NodeList childNodes = root.getChildNodes();
int noChildren = childNodes.getLength();
boolean result = false;
for(int i = 0; i<noChildren; i++){
if(!result){
System.out.println("About to find next child");
result = findNode(childNodes.item(i),
elementName, cdata);
}else break;
return result;
Hope this helps.

HTML bold text, imported from XML problem.

I have HTML content defined in an external XML file:
quote:
<textBody>First line of text containing some
bold words. More text with some bold
words and then two line breaks. Here's some more text with some more bold
words in the middle of it. Don't you think there's
something strange about the spacing around these bold
words? It seems to get worse with each extra appearance
of a bold word. Thank you for
reading my text.</textBody>
Here,
you can see a screenchot of the text rendered on screen from the
HTML above.
Many thanks for any help from anybody.

We think we've got the source of the problem - because the
textfield displaying the HTML is in a component. We believe the
letter spacing issue comes about from the component being resized.
The solution, as far as we can see is to simply use dynamic
textfields instead of components - OK for future development, but
what we've done already will need to be fixed by extra spaces in
various places.
Thanks for your suggestion Pal_w_g - guess it was your input
that provided the seed that led to the idea about the component.
