JAXP puts xmlns: attributes in HTML stylesheet output!

I'm using JAXP 1.2 to convert an XML document to HTML. The problem I am having is that it is placing xmlns: attributes in the first HTML element I output. I believe this has something to do with the fact that the template matches an element in a non-default namespace in the source document. The template is as follows:
<xsl:template match="news:news-event">
   <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="640">
     <xsl:apply-templates/>
   </table>
</xsl:template>Which creates the following HTML:
<table xmlns:news="http://www.news.qut.edu.au/"...(... inserted by me). I have declared the URI for the news namespace in the stylesheet element:
xmlns:news="http://www.news.qut.edu.au/"I have specified the output method as HTML:
<xsl:output method="html"/>Is there any way I can stop the transformer from specifying the xmlns: attribute in the output HTML as it is not valid and has nothing to do with the table element I am trying to generate?
Thanks,

You need to use the exclude-result-prefixes attribute in your xsl:stylesheet element.

Problem with ora:output and xmlns attribute

Using lastest XDK.
I am using the built in extension ora:output in a stylesheet running via XSQL called from a small java prg.
I am using this to generate several html fragments that will get processed later on not by xsql or xml/xsl but by another java prg.
I have specifed the output as html BUT when I look at the output some of the elements have an xmlns attribute added i.e. xmlns:ora="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java"....
Strange thing its not on all elements, "a", "tr", "td" tags are ok but "b", "br" and "table" have this attribute added.... HELP!!
How do I stop this attribute getting added...
Many thanks
Rob
PS I know if I use an "html" tag to wrap the output then only that element ends up with the xmlns attribute but I cant/dont want to do this as the prg running later will combine many of these fragments to create a single "real" html page.

I'm not sure whether i understand your problem,
It doesnot need using the binding attribute If you wanna updating the value of each rows in the datatable.
below is a sample that updating each rows of a datatable
jsp file
<h:dataTable value="#[sampleBean.data}" var="row">
    <h:column><h:inputText value="#{row.col1}"/></h:column>
</h:dataTable>
<h:commandButton value="update" action="#{sampleBean.update}"/>BackingBean:
SampleBean.java
public class Samplebean{
private SampleRow[] rows[];
public SampleRow[] getData{
          return rows;
public String update(){
      for(int i=0; i<rows.length; i++){
         rows.update();
return "success";
SampleRow.java
public class SampleRow{
private String col1;
public String getCol1(){
    return col1;
public void setCol1(String col1){
    this.col1 = col1;
public void update(){

I need to print the html data, thus import the html stylesheet which is the xsl file.
Does anyone know where should I put this stylesheet i.e., the path in ebusiness suite and import the same in my template.
Right now for testing purposes I have put the xsl file in my local directory.
Thanks,

How to change attributes of HTML table in HTMLDocument

Hi
I am trying to change background of table cell but unsuccessfully. First of all I did not found any suitable method in API so I have to inherit HTMLDocument and make my own
public static class ExtendedHtmlDocument extends HTMLDocument {
public void replaceAttributes(Element element, AttributeSet attributes, HTML.Tag tag) {
try {
writeLock();
int offset = element.getStartOffset();
int length = element.getEndOffset() - offset;
MutableAttributeSet mutableAttributes = (MutableAttributeSet) element.getAttributes();
mutableAttributes.removeAttributes(attributes.getAttributeNames());
mutableAttributes.addAttributes(attributes);
DefaultDocumentEvent changes = new DefaultDocumentEvent(offset, length, DocumentEvent.EventType.CHANGE);
changes.addEdit(new AttributeUndoableEdit(element, attributes.copyAttributes(), true));
changes.end();
fireChangedUpdate(changes);
fireUndoableEditUpdate(new UndoableEditEvent(this, changes));
finally {
writeUnlock();
}When I usethis code and dump exisiting document I see changes, e.g. I changed background in cell:
private void setCellBackground(Element element) {
SimpleAttributeSet set = new SimpleAttributeSet();
set.addAttribute("bgcolor", "black");
doc.replaceAttributes(element, set, HTML.Tag.TD);
doc.dump(System.out);
//editor.setText(editor.getText());
} and extract from dump
<html
name=html
>
    <table
      width=100%
        <td
          bgcolor=black
          name=td
        >But I do not see changes in the view, cell has the same background. The view is updated only if I uncomment last line "editor.setText(editor.getText())", but I think it is not good to update this way.
Thanks.

Transforming XML source to (X)HTML StreamResult outputs long comment

Hi,
I'm using javax.xml.transform.* to transform XML data into an XHTML page. The XML data represents a document (contains information about headers, paragraphs, related pages, etc.) and an XSL file is used to properly transform that data into an XHTML compatible file. All transformations go just as they should, however, the XHTML output contains a very lenthy comment about elements and attributes concerning HTML. Obviously, I do not want this comment in my final output. As a side note: I'm using a StreamSource(File) for the XML data source, a StreamSource(File) for the XSL file and a StreamResult(HttpServletResponse.getOutputStream()) for the HTML output. I'm not sure wether the problem is with using a StreamResult directly (rather than a SAXResult), or because I'm outputting directly to the servlet output stream. All input and output is in UTF-8, and the HttpServletResponse has been configured using setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8") and setContentType("text/html").
Everything works fine, except I get this stinkin' long comment, which I want gone.
Thanks,
Yuthura

I get the following result.html file (properly transformed and displayed in my browser, except for the comment):

Simple Transformations: How deserialize xmlns attributes?

Hello all,
during deserializing Simple Transformations ignore surplus attributes in the xml input stream. With one exception: u201Exmlnsu201C (namespace) attributes apparently are not ignored.
Take for example the xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<CITIES someattribute="XYZ">
<CITY>Hamburg</CITY>
<CITY>Berlin</CITY>
</CITIES>
This file can be processed successfully by the simple transformation:
<?sap.transform simple?>
<tt:transform xmlns:tt="http://www.sap.com/transformation-templates">
<tt:root name="CITIES"></tt:root>
<tt:template>
    <CITIES>
      <tt:loop ref="CITIES">
        <CITY tt:value-ref="CITY"></CITY>
      </tt:loop>
    </CITIES>
</tt:template>
</tt:transform>
When trying to process the following xml file by the same transformation, however, a CX_ST_MATCH_ELEMENT error is thrown.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<CITIES xmlns="XYZ">
<CITY>Hamburg</CITY>
<CITY>Berlin</CITY>
</CITIES>
How can xmlns attributes be deserialized (ignored) with simple transformations?
Thanks for any hint!
Simon
PS:
To reproduce the error the following ABAP can be used in combination with the quoted simple transformation:
REPORT ztestsd13.

        city(20) TYPE c,
       END OF lty_cities.
DATA: ls_cities TYPE lty_cities,

Xmlns attribute appearing in top level node

I have an xml message that is parsed and its DOM tree built. Then a portion of the message, identified by an xpath, is extracted which is stored as XMLNode, which is later printed to a stream.
Using the latest Oracle XML library ( comes with Oracle 10 ), the top level element in the node is always appended with extra 'xmlns' attribute.
This is an example. The original message does not have
this extra xmlns attribute.
<RESPONSE xmlns="http://www.nlis-hub.co.uk/NS/2001-01-10">
<PROPERTY_1>description 1</PROPERTY_1>
<PROPERTY_2>description 2</PROPERTY_2>
<PROPERTY_3>description 3</PROPERTY_3>
</RESPONSE>
How can we turn this behaviour off ?
Thanks,
Dwi

THanks for replying.
Yes, the XML document has the namespace specified:
<ROOT_MESSAGE xmlns="http://www.nlis-hub.co.uk/NS/2001-01-10" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.nlis-hub.co.uk/NS/2001-01-10 Schema.xsd">
<RESPONSE>
<PROPERTY_1>description 1</PROPERTY_1>
<PROPERTY_2>description 2</PROPERTY_2>
<PROPERTY_3>description 3</PROPERTY_3>
</RESPONSE>
</ROOT_MESSAGE>
In our application, we are storing the <RESPONSE>
block to db as CLOB. We have a requirement to store it
exactly as it was received. However, the XML parser (or something) is including the xmlns attribute in the top level node of that portion
<RESPONSE xmlns="http://www.nlis-hub.co.uk/NS/2001-01-10">
</RESPONSE>
This is what is done to obtain the node:
(xpathStr is the xpath to the RESPONSE node )
NodeList nodeList = xmlDocument_.selectNodes( xpathStr, this );
int nodeLength = nodeList.getLength();
StringWriter xmlStringWriter = new StringWriter();
PrintWriter xmlPrintWriter = new PrintWriter( xmlStringWriter );
for( int nodeIndex = 0; nodeIndex < nodeLength; ++nodeIndex )
XMLNode node = (XMLNode)nodeList.item( nodeIndex );
node.print( xmlPrintWriter );
StringBuffer xmlStringBuffer = xmlStringWriter.getBuffer();
By the time it gets to the output stream, it already has the xmlns attribute appended to the top level node.
How can we prevent this ?
Thanks,
Dwi

HTML formatted output

Hi All,
I have xml source as,
< SAMPLE_JOB>
< ORG_DESCRIPTION>>& lt;UL& gt;& lt;LI& gt;& lt;DIV class=MsoNormal style=& quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt 0.25in& quot;
& gt;& lt;SPAN style=& quot;FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt& quot;
& gt;Design and deliver technical training courses to field service engineers, dealer, and customer support
personnel.& lt;/SPAN& gt;& lt;/DIV& gt;& lt;/LI& gt;& lt;/UL& gt;
< /ORG_DESCRIPTION>
< /SAMPLE_JOB>
when i am previewing in pdf output, i am getting the following for < ORG_DESCRIPTION>
< UL>< LI>< DIV class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt 0.25in">< SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial;
mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt">Design and deliver technical training courses to field service engineers, dealer, and customer support personnel.< /SPAN>< /DIV>< /
LI>< /UL>
I want html formatted output. I saw tims blog. But here in my xml source i am not getting direct tags (instead of "< UL>", i am getting xml output as "& lt; UL & gt;"),
can i also get the xsl equivalent code for tags like UL, LI, DIV, SPAN..
Please help me.

Your XML source is sorta odd.
Where is it coming from?
Word?
This is what your xml should look like:
< SAMPLE_JOB>
< ORG_DESCRIPTION>Design and deliver technical training courses to field service engineers, dealer, and customer support
personnel.< /ORG_DESCRIPTION>
< /SAMPLE_JOB>
Then you put it in your rtf and preview in pdf and it would look ok.
The source xml is the problem - all this stuff is wrong or does not belong:
& lt;/SPAN& gt;& lt;/DIV& gt;& lt;/LI& gt;& lt;/UL& gt;

How can i Open a Captivate 7 HTML 5 Output in IoS / Android

Greetings,
I have been delivering captivate 7 HTML 5 outputs.... but now when i try to open them in Iphone or Anroid its giving erros.
Iphone: No LRS: DATA Cannot be stored
Anroid: enable Java script in your browser
Can someone guide me (share a step by step doc) on the best way to get this output compatable with IoS/Anroid?
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Debadrita

It seems like you are publishing with the TinCan API settings, and you don't have an LRS set up. You need to check with your LMS/ LRS provider on this.
Try publishing it as a SCORM output and test it.
Also, which version of iOS are you testing this with? Captivate 7 output has not been tested on iOS 7, so you might see a few surprises when you test on iOS 7 devices.

How can i put an attribute in a message part?

and it generates this message:
</GetCapabilities>
But i need to generate this message:
</GetCapabilities service="XYZ">
How can i wangle that?
thanks

the type should point to a complex type that can define elements and attribtues .. such as you are used to it ..
so just create a complex type => that has your attributes in it, and replace the type="xsd:string" with your new complex type ..

Xmlns attribute in 8.1.7

I am trying to process an XML file with the Oracle 8.1.7 PL/SQL XDK. I'm using Steve's helper programs from the XML book. The problem is that the document in question uses XML Schema. My script chokes whenever I attempt anything with this file. After a lot of investigation I have established that it's the xmlns attibute that it doesn't like (see testcase below).
Given that I can't upgrade to 9i just yet is there anything I can do to get this code working?
Cheers In Advance, APC
This doesn't can't find my attribute...

14 lv_file_ref := xpath.valueOf(xdoc, '/MYROOT/MYTAG');
15 dbms_output.put_line('!'||lv_file_ref||'!');
16* END;
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
but runs okay if I rename the xmlns attribute...

Insert a captivate 7 HTML 5 output in Robohelp 10

I am trying to insert a captivate 7 HTML 5 output in Robohelp 10. I tried the steps specified by adding an adobe captivate demo. I linked it to both the swf file and the index.html file. However I am getting an error, that the index.htm file is not valid. Can you please let me know the solution to this.

Hi, MeeraPRV
I recreated this error message and think I have the answer. When you used the Browse button to locate the HTML5 output file, I suspect you selected the wrong "index.htm" file.
Instead, you should navigate to the Captivate HTML5 Output folder and select the index.html file in the same folder as the .swf Flash file.
At this point, RoboHelp will create a new "zipped" file of all the Captivate output variations with the extension ".cpz" and place it in the "Baggage Files" folder. You don't have to do anything with that .cpz file. It will be automatically managed for you in the Multiscreen HTML5 SSL generation process.
Also be sure to "tick" the "Use Adobe Captivate HTML5 output" Setting shown below.
Lastly, be sure you apply the latest service update for RoboHelp 10.01 for good measure if you haven't already :-)
