Making XML elements (tags+attributes) visible in layout for PDF and print. Possible?

Is it possible to have the XML structure (tags and attributes) be made visible and formatted in the layout? Such a hard-copy reference of the layout (a print and online Drupal publication) would make the XML visible to those persons writing/editing content but who are not using InDesign or XML viewing/editing programs. And this would improve workflow considerably. TIA

Its the nextSibling of nxBook or, you may want to do it via
an array:
var xRootNode:XMLNode =xmlData.firstChild ;
var xnBooks:XMLNode =xRootNode.childNodes;
for (var j=0;j<xnBooks.length;j++) {
var attrib:Object =xnBooks[j].attributes
for (var sattrib:String in attrib ) {
trace(attrib[sattrib]+ " " + sattrib);

How to refer ?XML element tag name? in the RTF variable

Hi All,
I want to declare variable and assign the value of XML element tag to that variable.
Following are the steps:
<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, MYCOUNT,1)?>
<?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, MYCOUNT)?>
<?if: xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, MYCOUNT) =1?>xxx<?end if?>
In the declaration part,I need to replace 1 with some of the xml element tag value(for example : <?vendor_name?>).
But when I try to do so,I get some list of exceptions.
Please suggest how to proceed.
Thanks and Regards,
Kaveri

Hi Pradeep,
Thanks for your response.Here my requirement goes:
for -each:
text(database value)
end for-each
This text value will continue from page 1 to N.
So for page1 I want HEADER1 and from page2 onwards,I require different header HEADR2.
By using your approach,my text which needs to be continued on different pages will not be acheived.
One more thing I got from XMLP User guide:
<xdofo:inline-total
display-condition="exceptfirst"
name="InvAmt">.
SInce all my tags are generated from Oracel reports,I am unable to use the above xml line.Is there any way to use this by modifying the syntax..
Please let me know your suggestions since this is show stopper for my report.
Thanks and Regards,
Kaveri

Issue with working on a webservice that has xml elements with attributes

This is a branchout of Thread: Some more complex sample of invokin WS needed_
We are working on a project that involves a outbound SALT Web service call that includes complex elements with attributes..We are looking for options of how to use FML API's to pass these attribute values from the application code.
We opened a ticket with oracle where we were suggested to frame the entire xml and pass the xml using the FML32 of the complex element. But when we framed the xml for Service and put the entire XML which includes the attributes using the FML ID of Service.
Please find a sample Schema and XML similar to the one we are working on...its associated code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">
 <xs:element name="Service" type="Service_Type" nillable="true">
 <xs:annotation>
 <xs:documentation>Comment describing your root element</xs:documentation>
 </xs:annotation>
 </xs:element>
 <xs:complexType name="Service_Type">
 <xs:sequence>
 <xs:element name="DateTime" type="xs:dateTime" nillable="true">
 </xs:element>
 <xs:element name="UUID" nillable="true">
 </xs:element>
 <xs:element name="Status" type="xs:string" nillable="true" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
 </xs:element>
 </xs:sequence>
 <xs:attribute name="Version" type="xs:string" use="required">
 </xs:attribute>
 <xs:attribute name="Name" type="xs:string" use="required">
 </xs:attribute>
 </xs:complexType>
</xs:schema>
The sample XML is :
___<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>___
______
___<Service Name="TestService" Version="1.1" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="Untitled6.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">___
___ <DateTime>2001-12-17T09:30:47Z</DateTime>___
___ <UUID>text</UUID>___
___</Service>___
wsdlcvt generated the mif file with Service as a FML32 type and all its child elements as "mbstring". We tried to leave as it is and we also tried to replace all the child elements and just had a mif entry for "Service" as a mbstring neither produced a different output...Tried to dump using Ferror32 which did not dump any..._
The sample C/C++ code as per suggestions were to do the following...
_1) Have a string with the entire XML for Service_
xmldata="<Service Name=\"TestService"\ Version="1.1\"_ xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation=\"Untitled6.xsd\" xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\">_
_ <DateTime>2001-12-17T09:30:47Z</DateTime>_
_ <UUID>text</UUID>_
_</Service>";_
_2) Use Fmbpack32 to create a mbstring data_
_memcpy(reqmbptr, (char*)xmldata.data(),xmldata.length());_
_len=xmldata.length();_
_Fmbpack32(mbcodeName,reqmbptr,len, packdata,(FLDLEN32 *)&packedlen,0);_
userlog("Size of packedlen is %d",packedlen);
3) Add the packed data to the output buffer
Fadd32(fmlbuffer,Service, packdata,packedlen );
But we do not see the Service tag populated in the GWWS outbound request.Everything else makes it....any help on how to move ahead would be appreciated...

It seems you switch to the 10gR3 GA and now the whole XML data is mapped to FLD_MBSTRING.
I will forward my sample to you by mail, but this sample is not offical sample, it is just QA test case. You can refere it and check what's the difference.
Please let me know your mail address.

Create XML Element Tag BasedOn Found Character Style

Hi,
Good Day!
Basically I want to search only for character styles that contains "ntb-", that is why it is hard coded in my searchString variable.
Although I was able to create XML tag based on selected character style, but it will always add/insert at the end of the parent XML element.
Can anyone could help me how insert/add that element at the insertion point where the text is found?
Thanks,

Here is a way you can find any field.
Download the current template.
Open it in word and go to the line that you are interested in.
The blanket PO# will be a field. Right click on it and go to properties. You will see the xml element there.
Hope this answers your question,

XML element tag problem

Hi guys,
I am facing a problem in parseing a XML file when the element is in <element/> tag format. Iam using "javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser" to parse the XML. Basically XML contains many fields that are mandatary in my XSD. my requirement is that if there is a SAXParseException, I should get the name of the element for which the error is comming.
What I am doing is, I am storing the name of the element in startElement method, which I print it in the catch block of the error. This code is working fine for <element></element> type of tag. But when the element tag is <element/> this. it does not go in the startElement or endElement block. Hence I always get the name element which is previous to the error element.
How can I get the element name in both form of the element tag. As I have no control over the XML, which is posted on my servlet.

I'm not sure why you're having a problem - the SAXException tells you where in the input stream the error is, and SAX parsers may report a validation error at any time so long as it is before passing the invalid element to the content handler. So it's legal for the exception to occur immediately after the startDocument, and will not necessarily occur immediately after the callback for the preceding element.
Eg, if the DTD says you have <!ELEMENT foo (a,b,c,d)> and you have <foo><a/><x/><d/></foo>, then the parser may well report the error before the startElement() call for the foo element, as it is invalid. Such fail-fast parser validation means you can safely update a persistant resource on receipt of the events, rather than having to wait until the element is closed before you are sure it's valid.
This works fine for <element/> tag. But now there is a problem with <element></element> tag.Post the code you have, show how you are mapping from the line no. in the exception to the source data, and state which parser you are using.

Use different Layouts for Summary and Details in Drill down report

Hi All,
I have a 2 level drill down report in ALV.
The summary report has certain fields and the Detail report has different fields. Now my problem is that when i use a default layout (with all fields of summary report) for the summary report, and drill down to the detail report i'm missing the fields on detail that are not in Summary. And if i save the default layout as default (with all fields of Detail) and go back to sumary, I'm missing the some other fields on summary (which are not on detail report).
Is there a way to make different default layouts for each of those summary and detail reports:
Also as the layouts are choosen by the user, i cannot hardcode any particular layout;
So if the user chooses a layout for detail; it has to stay the same layout for the detail report if he goes to summary and then back to detail; unless the user changes the layout again.
I'm using two different Layout types for each report. but i still cannot get the desired effect.
Data:
 gt_layout_s type slis_layout_alv,
 gt_layout_d type slis_layout_alv,
call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
 exporting
 i_callback_program = g_repid
 is_layout = gt_layout_s
 i_callback_top_of_page = g_top_of_page
 i_callback_user_command = g_user_command
 i_callback_pf_status_set = g_status
 i_save = g_save
 is_variant = gs_variant
 it_fieldcat = gt_fieldcat[]
 it_events = gt_events[]
 importing
 es_exit_caused_by_user = gs_exit_caused_by_user
 tables
 t_outtab = it_summary.
call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
 exporting
 i_callback_program = g_repid
 is_layout = gt_layout_d
 i_callback_top_of_page = g_top_of_page
 i_callback_user_command = g_user_command
 i_callback_pf_status_set = g_status
 i_save = g_save
 is_variant = gs_variant
 it_fieldcat = gt_fieldcat[]
 it_events = gt_events[]
 importing
 es_exit_caused_by_user = gs_exit_caused_by_user
 tables
 t_outtab = it_detail_disp.

Here is how you differentiate between the layout of two different grids. There is the parameter, IS_VARIANT in the function. You usually leave it empty or pass only the report name and username. What you need to do is to pass unique string for each grids to the HANDLE field of the parameter IS_VARIANT. You can probably hard code it as HEADER and DETAILS in your case. Once that is done, system identified that these two different layout for different grids.

Ravi

HTML Responsive Layout for tablet and phone is not showing icons correct on a converted help file

I am using the Responsive HTML Layout in RoboHelp 11. On all of my new help files, the layout works great and my icons are showing appropriately. On all of my old help files that were converted, my icons do not fit within bar for the tablet and phone. I am using the Government Theme (Theme2_Government), but modified the file to have our colors and logos. I exported the .slz file and I am using the same slz file in all of the help files. The only help files that are cutting off the icons are the help files that were converted from previous version of RoboHelp. Any idea why this would happen?

This is from the converted file showing the icons that are cut off in the blue bar.
This one is from a new help file and the icons fit within the blue bar.
The same thing happens the phone layout with the bar at the bottom.

How does attribute change run works for Aggregates and Master data?

Hi
Can anybody xplain how does the attribute change run works for Master data ?
For e.g.
There is 0spelling and it has master data
On Day 1 there are 10 records
day 2 it has 12 records
so with attribute change run this 2 new records will get added....
The values for this 12 records will added seperately in Data load
Is this how it workss
So how about Aggregates which has Master data.????

for e.g.
u have 0spelling whicha has attributes x,y and z on day 1 with 10 records
so do ur aggregates on day1 with same values
now on day2 u had new values of attributes y,z,s,d and new hierarchies and so u add new records
with data load u will load the data with version M of modified and is not available for reporting
If u do attribute change run then this modified version is activated to A i.e. active version .
It will also do the change run alignment for Aggregate for new attribute values and new hierarchy values for aggregate.
now in order for this data to be available for reporting u will need to do the roll up of aggregate.....
if u roll up aggregate before attribute change run , new data is not avaialable for reporting
if u roll up aggregate after attribute change run, then data is available for reporting
if u dont roll up aggregate eventhough new data is in dataprovider, still new data will not be available for reporting.
this is how it works

How special characters can be used in xml element TAG.

Hi,
In my project data is fetched from the database and stored in the xml file. Data contains European characters as well. When I tried with UTF-8 it was giving error but when I changed the encoding to ISO-8859-1, XML generated.
Well now I am stuck with a problem and as I don�t know much about XML, I am trying to get some knowledge from you.
I have xml tag like: <Name&>Rohit</Name><employee#>78023</employee>.
I am getting the error message �top level element must be defined.� This is because special characters are in TAG. But it doesn�t give error if I use special characters/European char in value( like Rohit*).
I don�t know much about CDATA. Any help from your end will be greatly appreciated.Can this problem resolved if i use java function outformat.CDataElements(String[]) and pass the elements name.
Thanks!!
Regards,
Rohit Dutt

Client: I want this element name.
You: The XML recommendation doesn't allow you to have that element name. If you make documents with that element name then no XML software will be able to read them. It just isn't going to work. Insisting on that would just be stupid and pointless. (Okay, you don't say that last sentence that way to your client but that's how it is. Explain it more nicely than that.)

Delete any level xml element or attribute

Hi,
In Design CS2, How can i delete or untag all the id attributes from the entire xml and any level with javascript.
Is it possible ?
Thanks with Regards
Pramod Pant

It just needs a little recursion. I wrote this
removeTags (app.activeDocument);
function removeTags (startAt)
for (var i=startAt.xmlElements.length-1; i>=0; i--)
if (startAt.xmlElements[i].xmlElements.length > 0)
removeTags (startAt.xmlElements[i]);
startAt.xmlElements[i].untag();
in 2 minutes, found out that untag() already untags everything
i including
its sub-elements, then re-read your post. Ah ... just the attributes... Oh well. How about this:
removeTags (app.activeDocument);
function removeTags (startAt)
for (var i=startAt.xmlElements.length-1; i>=0; i--)
if (startAt.xmlElements[i].xmlAttributes.length > 0)
startAt.xmlElements[i].xmlAttributes.everyItem().remove();
removeTags (startAt.xmlElements[i]);

Convert xml to pdf and print on SAP printers

Hello All,
I've the following requirement:
PO layout (we are not using smartform or sapscript or adobe for printing. The PO template is an infopath file which generates XML and XSL) is in the form of XSL file and the PO data is in the form of XML (generated from ABAP itself). I merge this two files and apply call transformation to create a single XML file which has the layout information as well as the data.
Now the major challenge is to convert this XML file with the layout information and display it as a PDF in SAP GUI. Also, this PDF should be printable on SAP printers and not only local printers.
Asking you to help me as your time permits.
