Linking from XML Document

Hi,
Attached is code from my xml file. This feeds a flash movie
template. I want visitors to be able to click on an image which
then takes them to another page to see a slideshow.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

Hi,
I am not a XSLT expert but Tobias wrote some nice blogs about it. Read them here:
/people/tobias.trapp/blog
You might want to start with this one:

CDATA links in xml document

Hello all,
I am trying to add an html link inside a parapgraph of text that is loaded through an xml document. I have done some research and it appears I need to set my actionscript to read the html. When I add the href in the text it reads literally as the code instead of creating a hyperlink in the paragraph. My problem is I did not set up the original flash document and I anot sure where to add the htmlText=true; and so on.
Here is the link. The problem is in the "press" section. last line in the paragraph of text. You can see the aref code not working.

Thank you for your replies
I tried adding the code mentioned, but I still can't get it to work. I added:
title_txt.htmlText = true;
title_txt.htmlText = title[p];
desc_txt.htmlText = true;
desc_txt.htmlText = desc[p]+" "+dims[p]+". "+note[p];
Am I adding in the wrong place? The text box that has the html in it is the "desc_txt" box. Any clues as to where the code would go in relation to the above code listed?
Again... thank you for all of your help. Really appreciated!

Named Anchor linking from another document

I made a Named Anchor and linked from some text in another document. Great. Worked just fine. The only thing is it doesn't display the named anchor at the top of the page.
In other words the footer is at the bottom of the page and the named anchor in the middle of the page... not at the top. Like a #top would be.
Anyway to get it to the top of the page? Do I just need more content under it?
Much appreciated!

Thanks for the help. I had no luck trying it out.
If possible, at: artdesignsneed.com/joeldoctor
Under menu choice "Treatment" then choose "TFP".... the first sentence has ..."Borderline PD developed..."
I wanted to link Borderline PD to:
Menu choice: Disorders... choose Personality... go down to "Cluster B" and there's Borderline PD.
The link worked but the named anchor "Borderline PD" is in the middle of the page.
Cheers if you can help.
If not, I'm going in the right direction.
Much appreciated.

I have the following structure in my ABAP program which I would like a way of developing the XSLT in order to populate the results of each field into my program
data: begin of gs_clientdetails.
          include structure zclient. " Contains all the CLIENT fields from Scheduall
          include structure zcluser." Contains all the CL_USER fields from Scheduall
data: end of gs_clientdetails.
Any suggestions??

Hi,
I am not a XSLT expert but Tobias wrote some nice blogs about it. Read them here:
/people/tobias.trapp/blog
You might want to start with this one:

Link from Office Document to specific point in a PDF?

I am having difficulty creating a link from an MS Office document (ie Word) to a specific paragraph or page within a PDF.
I am using Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Pro.
Can anybody help me?

Hi,
Just a suggestion -
Convert the MS Word file to PDF.
Then, use Acrobat's Link Tool.
You can link to a specific page.
If you first insert a "Destination" at some location in a PDF's page you can use the Link tool to go from a PDF to this other PDF and on to the "Destination".
Just two of the options provided by Acrobat's Link tool.
Be well...

How do i query attributes from xml documents

I want to to query only details in Issue id="705230" (id is an attribute)
I tried this, but does not help. I should be able to query the value of core_org_id attribute
select extract(CLOB_DATA, 'PcrDocument/PcrOrganization/core_org_id) CORE_ORG_ID from from pcr_files where existsNode(CLOB_DATA, 'PcrDocument/PcrOrganization/Issues/Issue[@id="705230"]')=1;
-- does not return anything....
I tried to extract value for R_DATE & R_REVIEW_DATE for issue id=705230, but iam not able to.
Data for all the issues is retured.
Here is the query used...
select extract(CLOB_DATA, 'PcrDocument/PcrOrganization/Issues/Issue') ISSUE from pcr_files where existsNode(CLOB_DATA, 'PcrDocument/PcrOrganization/Issues/Issue[@id="705230"]')=1;
Here is the part of XML document iam querying on...

I did not include the name space declaration for it is working fine. Really? Then I suppose you must be using a schema-based XMLType column?
Is it Object-Relational or Binary XML storage?
You mentioned it is depricated in 11.2, but iam able to run it on 11.2.Deprecated doesn't mean it ceases functioning.
Any suggestions to covert this to XMLTable/XMLQuery format please..If you read the documentation, it covers this part too ;)
Example :
create table tmp_xml of xmltype;
insert into tmp_xml values(
xmltype('<ns1:PcrDocument id="PCR-13562" title="EU Disclosures - EC 1060/2009" version="1" pcrPublishDate="2012-01-11T12:49:02" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:ns1="http://integration.mysite.com/ServiceSchema/v3">

Extracting Values from XML-Document in pl/sql

Hello!
I need to extract the content of the following extract:
<ns1:OXERPGetArticlesResponse xmlns:ns1="OXERPService">
<ns1:OXERPGetArticlesResult>
<ns1:OXERPType>
<ns1:aResult>
<ns1:ArrayOfString>
<ns1:string>OXID</ns1:string>

</ns1:ArrayOfString>
<ns1:ArrayOfString>
<ns1:string>OXPRICE</ns1:string>
<ns1:string>100.5</ns1:string>
</ns1:ArrayOfString>
</ns1:aResult>
<ns1:blResult>true</ns1:blResult>
<ns1:sMessage/>
</ns1:OXERPType>
<ns1:OXERPType>
<ns1:aResult>
<ns1:ArrayOfString>
<ns1:string>OXID</ns1:string>
<ns1:string>531a8af7d9a9a5bb53b65a2b9a5356e5</ns1:string>
</ns1:ArrayOfString>
<ns1:ArrayOfString>
<ns1:string>OXARTNUM</ns1:string>
<ns1:string>0601-85-069-1</ns1:string>

<ns1:blResult>true</ns1:blResult>
<ns1:sMessage/>
</ns1:OXERPType>
</ns1:OXERPGetArticlesResult>
</ns1:OXERPGetArticlesResponse>
The output should be:
OXID OXARTNUM OXPRICE
531f91d4ab8bfb24c4d04e473d246d0b 0601-85-069 100.5
531a8af7d9a9a5bb53b65a2b9a5356e5 0601-85-069-1 89.9
The count of rows and columns is variable.
I want to do this by using xmltype.extract but I found no way to create a loop over the content of the xml document.
Hopefully someone can help me!

Herbert

6 ligne(s) sélectionnée(s).You mentioned that the number of column(s) is not known in advance. That's gonna be a problem to present the data column-wise.
Version 11g has the PIVOT feature, but still you have to know how many columns there will be in the result set.
How are you going to use the data after extraction?
Maybe we could advise some other techniques more relevant for your requirement.

Create DTD from XML document

Hello,
I have a little problem creating a DTD from an XML document. The XML document looks the following:
<data name="data1">
<value id="abc" name="value1" />
<value id="def" name="value2" />
<value id="ghi" name="value3" />
</data>
<data name="data2">
<value id="123" name="valueA" />
<value id="456" name="valueB" />
<value id="789" name="valueC" />
</data>
The problem concerns the attribute list of the value element,
on the one hand I could create a DTD like this:
<!ATTLIST value id CDATA #REQUIRED
name CDATA #REQUIRED
>
On the other hand I could do it like this:
<!ATTLIST value id (abc|def|ghi|123|456|789) #REQUIRED
name (value1|value2|value3|valueA|valueB|valueC)
#REQUIRED
>
Now I don't know what's the right way. I would be glad if anybody could give me support for my problem.
Thank you very much,
Findus

No...this is not the solution for my problem. The first problem with the code you posted is that I can create a valid XML document like this:
<data name="data2">
<value id="123" name="value1" />
<value id="456" name="value2" />
<value id="789" name="value3" />
</data>
(Please compare to the lines below in order to recognize the difference)
I want the user to create only documents like this:
<data name="data2">
<value id="123" name="valueA" />
<value id="456" name="valueB" />
<value id="789" name="valueC" />
</data>
So I want to define special attribute pairs in my DTD, like ' the value attribute id="123" works only with the attribute name="valueA"! '
Is it possible to do so ?
Thanx a lot,
Findus

Could not retrieve attributes from XML document loaded in JDOM

Hi All,
I am having difficulty reading and parsing the following XML City.xml document using Saxon parser and XPath:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional/ /EN" "http://www. w3.org/TR/ xhtml1/DTD/ xhtml1-transitio nal.dtd">
<html xmlns="http: //www.w3. org/1999/ xhtml">
    <head>
        <meta http-equiv=" Content-Type" content="text/ html; charset=UTF- 8" />
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="content">
            <table class="sresults">
                <tr>
                    <td>
                        <a href="http:/ /www.abc.com/areas" title=" Hollywood , CA "> hollywood </a>
                    </td>
                    <td>
                        <a href="http:/ /www.abc.com/areas" title=" San Jose , CA "> san jose </a>
                    </td>
                    <td>
                        <a href="http:/ /www.abc.com/areas" title=" San Francisco , CA "> san francisco </a>
                    </td>
                    <td>
                        <a href="http:/ /www.abc.com/areas" title=" San Diego , CA "> San diego </a>
                    </td>
                </tr>
        </body>
</html> Below is the code snippets that illustrates how I tried to retrieve the attribute title of <a>:
1. BufferedReader incomingbrXml = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("C:\City.xml"));
2. SAXBuilder saxBuilder = new SAXBuilder(false);
3. Document jdomXmlDocument = saxBuilder.build(incomingbrXml);4. String city_content = null;
5. XPath cityXPath = XPath.newInstance("/ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']/ns:table[@class='sresults']/ns:tr/ns:td/ns:a/@title");
6. java.util.List cityList = cityXPath.selectNodes(jdomXmlDocument);
7. Iterator city_iterator = cityList.iterator();
8. while (city_iterator.hasNext()) {
9.     city_content = ((org.jdom.Attribute)city_iterator.next()).getValue();
10.   if (city_content.length() != 0) {
11.       System.out.println("Area Url:" + area_content.toString()); }
12. } I would like to get the following output:
Hollywood , CA
San Jose , CA
San Francisco , CA
San Diego , CA
Instead, the jdomXmlDocument is made up of only the first few lines of City.xml and nothing on the body when debugging in Netbeans and nothing in cityList. I am running this program online so there would not be an issue with entity resolver that took place on line 2.
I am running JDK 1.6.0_17, Netbeans 6.7, JDOM 1.1, Saxon9.1 on Windows XP platform.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Jack.

Hi,
Correction to line 11 - System.out.println("City title:" + city_content.toString()); instead.
Thanks,
Jack

Replacing special characters from xml document/text inside element

Hi
Is there any way to replace the xml codes to special characters inside an entire xml document/ for a text in element.
I want to get the xml codes to get replaced to respective special character(for any special character)
Please see the sample xml xml element below
<Details>Advance is applicable only for < 1000. This is mentioned in Seller's document</Details>
Thanks in advance .. any help will be highly appreciated.

So, just to be sure I understand correctly, you want this :
<Details>Advance is applicable only for < 1000. This is mentioned in Seller's document</Details>
to be converted to :
<Details>Advance is applicable only for < 1000. This is mentioned in Seller's document</Details>
If so, I'll say again : the resulting XML document will be invalid.
Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 (Fifth Edition)
The ampersand character (&) and the left angle bracket (<) MUST NOT appear in their literal form, except when used as markup delimiters, or within a comment, a processing instruction, or a CDATA section. If they are needed elsewhere, they MUST be escaped using either numeric character references or the strings " & " and " < " respectively. The right angle bracket (>) may be represented using the string " > ", and MUST, for compatibility, be escaped using either " > " or a character reference when it appears in the string " ]]> " in content, when that string is not marking the end of a CDATA section.
Ask whoever "they" are why they would want to work with not wellformed XML.

Linking from xml

I saw a post a couple months ago explaining how to place url
links into a product table in the XML file. The posts seem to only
go back so far. Can someone please explain how this is done? So if
I have products in each column, how can I link to an entire html
page displaying that product info? Thank you.
Never mind - I just got it working...

Hi -
Not an answer, but have you looked at your page in Firefox ?

Sqlldr is loading only 1st record from xml document

Hi,
I am trying to load XML doc with multiple records using sql*loader.
I have registered my XSD perfectly.
This is my control file
LOAD DATA
INFILE *
INTO TABLE Orders APPEND
XMLType(xmldata)
FIELDS(
xmldata LOBFILE (CONSTANT FULDTL_2.xml)
TERMINATED BY '???')
BEGINDATA
FULDTL_2.xml
-- Here, what I have to give for TERMINATED BY '???'
My xml doc
<Order ID="146120486" Status="CL" Comments="Shipped On 08/05/2008"/>
<Order ID="143417590" Status="CL" Comments="Handset/Device has been received at NRC" ShipDate=""/>
sqlldr is loading only 1st record from the file.
How can I make it to load all the records from my xml doc.
Thanks in advance.

thanks for both the replies above - essentially the same correct solution.
something worth noting now that I've written and tested both a SAX solution and a DOM solution is that there is a significant (4 x) time penalty using SAX.
I considering dividing the vector I am storing/recovering into chunks and saving each chunk separately using DOM to speed things up...
any thoughts on this approach?

Extracting the input from xml document in BPEL

hi,
I have a simple JSP which invokes the "101.HelloWorld" provided with the samples.
The source code for the JSP is as follows:
<%@page import="com.oracle.bpel.client.Locator" %>
<%@page import="com.oracle.bpel.client.NormalizedMessage" %>
<%@page import="com.oracle.bpel.client.delivery.IDeliveryService" %>
<%@page import="java.util.Hashtable" %>
<%@page import="javax.naming.Context" %>
<%@page import="java.util.Map" %>
<%@page import="org.w3c.dom.Element" %>
<html>
<head>
<title>Invoke HelloWorld</title>
</head>
<body>
<%
    Hashtable jndi = null;
    jndi = new Hashtable();
    jndi.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "opmn:ormi://BTP6ND09:6003:home/orabpel");
    jndi.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory");
    jndi.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "oc4jadmin");
    jndi.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "welcome1");
    jndi.put("dedicated.connection", "true");
    jndi.put("dedicated.rmicontext","true");
    String name = request.getParameter("name");
    if(name == null)
        name = "BPEL";
    String xml = "<name xmlns=\"http://btp6nd09:8888/BPELConsole/default/HelloWorld\">" + name + "</name>";
    Locator locator = new Locator("default","bpel",jndi);
    IDeliveryService deliveryService = (IDeliveryService)locator.lookupService(IDeliveryService.SERVICE_NAME );
    NormalizedMessage nm = new NormalizedMessage( );
    nm.addPart("payload" , xml );
    deliveryService.post("HelloWorld", "initiate", nm);
    out.println( "BPELProcess HelloWorld initiated!" );
%>
Please refer to the
BPEL Console
to see the status of the initiated HelloWorld BPEL Process.
</body>
</html>Since the input goes as an xml to the Receive activity, i am not knowing how to extract the "name" element from it in the assign activity. Which "BPEL XPath Extension Function" should i use to extract the same?
