INDESIGN GLITCH: Creating an XML file from Indesign Layout - Issue "Using more than one line of GREP" & "Map Styles to Tags"

I currently create XML from InDesign CC by Mapping Style to Tags.
- The Paragraph Styles are manually apply to text. These styles include multiple lines of GREP to automatically apply character styles.
- I map some of the paragraph and character styles to prebuilt tags that have the same name "Map Styles to Tags".
I have found through trouble-shooting that InDesign is unable to "Map Styles to Tags" for more than one line of GREP. I therefore have to chose which line of GREP to automatically tag and which lines to manually tag.
Please can anyone help, I need to automatically map tags to at least two character styles in one paragraph via GREP.
Thanks,

OK. The best I can suggest is running a Find/Change like this:
Which will actually apply the character style to the italics (and I would do the bold as well just to make certain). Then run the Map Styles to Tags again, using the Apply by Name. Which will tag the italics.
I don't know why ID can map to the bold and not the italic character style. It either should do them both (as in this instance) or none at all as the character styles are not actually applied by the grep, just the styling from the character styles.

Creating an xml file from recordset

Hi...
XML newbie here - so.
Is it possible to create and xml file from a recordset?
I need to create a datafeed of our e-commerce products.
Also, some of the db data contains HTML Code (product
description field),
how will this effect the xml file?
Another problem is that my xml file needs to contain url's
for the products
and product images. My ASP pages contain these URL in hard
code and then
pull the actual file names from the db
Hope that makes some sense
Thanks for any help
Andy

Hi David
Thanks for your help.
I think it will have to be option 1 as i am using Access DB.
I don't know how to go about it but will serach good old
Google.
Here is my recordset below, that pulls the required data from
Access.
The product and product image URL's need to be in the xml
file but only the
product image name and product id are in the database, e.g
image name
(imagename.jpg) productid (21)
The actual URL's are hardcoded in my ASP pages, e.g <img
src="products/medium/<%=(RSDetails.Fields.Item("Image").Value)%>"
Not sure if this makes things any clearer :-|
Thanks Again
Andy

Let us assume you have all the data from the jsp form in an java bean object..
Now you want a xml file. This can be acheived in 2 ways
1. Write it into a file using java.io classes. Say you have a class with name
write("<name>"+obj.getName+</name>);
bingo you have a flat file with the xml
2. Use data binding to do the trick
will recommend JiBx and Castor for the 2nd option

Creating an xml file from a playlist - message for iTunes staff

When I created an xml file from a playlist I noticed that in the xml file the track name was merged with the artist name in this manner "I want you - Bob Dylan".
That was hardly a problem as I could easily correct this in the FileMaker Pro environment.
But subsequently I found out, that within iTunes the track name was similarly changed to the same format. Apparently this happened when iTunes created the xml file and inadvertently also changed the track name within iTunes.
It can easily be corrected by entering File/Info, but I had over 10.000 songs in that list and it will take a lot of time. I have to do this, as I created earlier for each song a file path in FileMaker Pro, which are unrecognizable now.
Could you please correct the xml file creating procedure?

I must confess that I can't reproduce this result myself anymore.
I created the xml file in iTunes via File/Library/Export Playlist/xml structure (I translate the Dutch terms loosely) and subsequently I imported the xml file into a Filemaker Pro via File/Import/xml.
The xsl style sheet looks ok.
It looks like a freak of nature.
Still I have the evidence in my iTunes playlist, where I have another 9000 clicks to go to repair the damage.
Let's forget about it, until it happens again.
Thanks for your time.

Is there anyway to create a xml file from a list so that xml file is available like an RSS.xml

Hello
My objective is to have a xml file created from a list for anonymous access. The SharePoint RSS feed is a .aspx file not xml, as shown below:
_layouts/listfeed.aspx?List=21c2cdaa%2D52f3%2D4057%2Db674%2D45e63ba77e31&View=535eb328%2Db5fb%2D45c5%2D8fe8%2Da130e92afc41
Also, is there a way to do this so that the xml content has current data like the list.
Thank you for any insight and direction.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to create a xml file from a SharePoint list.
To generate a XML file, we can use the SharePoint Object Model or PowerShell to achieve it.
Generate a hierarchical XML file from SharePoint list using Client Object Model.

Can I use more than one transition when creating a slideshow in IDVD

I want to use more than one transition in IDVD when creating a slideshow, is this possible?

Not so. Under Windows select Photos.
That will show the Media Browser in the lower right hand corner of iMovie.
Use the File ➙ New Project to create a new project. Select the photos from iPhoto you want to create a movie from and drag into the new project area.
From there add your transitions, music, etc.

Can I create and use more than one repository on OVM 2.1.5

The version of Oracle VM I am using is 2.1.5 .
I wonder can I create and use more than one repository on OVM 2.1.5. Because I want to install different GOS on different disks.
I know in Oracle VM 2.2 we can use following commands to realize that.
a. #/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py –n /dev/mapper/mpathxp1
b. #/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py –r UUID
c. #/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py –i
And other repositories can also be mounted and found under /var/ovs/mount/UUID.
But in Oracle VM 2.1.5, seems just one repository can be created and mounted. For example:
At first, I create a repository using mpath1p1:
a. # mkfs.ocfs2 /dev/mapper/mpath1p1
b. #/usr/lib/ovs/ovs-makerepo /dev/mapper/mpath1p1 C "cluster root"
c. I can find the repository has been mounted under /OVS.
But if I want to use "/usr/lib/ovs/ovs-makerepo /dev/mapper/mpath2p1 C "cluster root" to create another repository, and check the mount status using command "mount", these two disks are all have been mounted under /OVS.
"# cat /etc/ovs/repositories", only mpath1p1 with UUID was recorded there.
After reboot, only repository with mpath1p1 was mounted under OVS.
Can anyone tell me how to use more than one repositories on OVM 2.1.5. Do I have to install all the GOSs on the same disk and repository.
Thank you very much.

Now I've known how to create different repository. They will be mounted under /OVS/UUID. Thanks.

Can i create report using more than one Business Area ?

Hi Gurus,
Can i create report using more than one Business Area?.Could anybody tell me that report will work?.
Vikram

You should have no problem creating a report using more than one Business Area, we share folders across BAs all the time for ease of management. As long as your joins exist its not a problem.

How to create a xml file from String object in CS4

Hi All,
I want to convert a string object into an XML file using Javascript in Indesign CS4.
I have done the following script. But it does not convert the namespaces for the xml elements with no value in it.
var xml = new XML(string);
The value present in string is "<level_1 xsi:nil="true" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"/>"
When it is converted to xml, the value becomes "<level_1 xsi:nil="true"/>"
On processing the above xml object, am getting an error like this "Uncaught JavaScript exception: Unbound namespace prefix."
Kindly help.
Thanks,
Anitha

Can you post more of the script?
Are you getting the XML file from disk, or a string?

You are interested in XMLElement and probably XMLAgg. Since you didn't list a version, I can't provide links to the corresponding documentation. I cringe at all the attributes on the Patient element as that info should really be elements.
To create the Measure node, your overall SQL statement may look something like (not tested)
SELECT XMLElement....
          XMLAgg(SELECT XMLElement
                   FROM measures_table
                  WHERE join condition to parent)
FROM patient,

Creating an xml file from java.

I trying to create an xml file using a java program. I just wondering what is the best way to go about it and what should i use jdom ,xerces sax etc.

Use JAXP+SAX.
Here an example:import java.io.*;
// SAX classes.
import org.xml.sax.*;
import org.xml.sax.helpers.*;
//JAXP 1.1
import javax.xml.parsers.*;
import javax.xml.transform.*;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.*;
import javax.xml.transform.sax.*;
// PrintWriter from a Servlet
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
StreamResult streamResult = new StreamResult(out);
SAXTransformerFactory tf = (SAXTransformerFactory) SAXTransformerFactory.newInstance();
// SAX2.0 ContentHandler.
TransformerHandler hd = tf.newTransformerHandler();
Transformer serializer = hd.getTransformer();
serializer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.ENCODING,"ISO-8859-1");
serializer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.DOCTYPE_SYSTEM,"users.dtd");
serializer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.INDENT,"yes");
hd.setResult(streamResult);
hd.startDocument();
AttributesImpl atts = new AttributesImpl();
// USERS tag.
hd.startElement("","","USERS",atts);
// USER tags.
String[] id = {"PWD122","MX787","A4Q45"};
String[] type = {"customer","manager","employee"};
String[] desc = {"Tim@Home","Jack&Moud","John D'o�"};
for (int i=0;i<id.length;i++)
atts.clear();
atts.addAttribute("","","ID","CDATA",id);
atts.addAttribute("","","TYPE","CDATA",type[i]);
hd.startElement("","","USER",atts);
hd.characters(desc[i].toCharArray(),0,desc[i].length());
hd.endElement("","","USER");
hd.endElement("","","USERS");
hd.endDocument();
[i]This xml generation program might be the best solution because it uses JAXP 1.1 so it will work under JDK 1.4 or JDK 1.2/1.3 with XALAN2 library (or any XML library JAXP 1.1 compliant). It's also memory-friendly because it doesn't need DOM.
See http://www.javazoom.net/services/newsletter/xmlgeneration.html
Hope That Helps
