Migration from RH7 to RH8 : HTML tag ignored introduced unwanted space

Dear All,
When migrating from RoboHelp 7 to 8, looks like there is an unwanted space introduced in the <ignored> tag.
Looks like the space is introduced by the RoboHelp 8.
HTML Help file build by RH 7 (OK)
<ignore>conf<ignore/>
HTML Help file build by RH8 (Not Good)
The <ignored> tag is transformed to the following :
<?rh-ignored text="cfg" ?> conf
Please advice. We prefer to keep the <ignore> tag
Thanks
Song

I have move this to the RoboHelp HTML forum as it is a problem with your source topics rather than Microsoft HTML Help (CHMs).
I don't think that particular one has been reported before but I think the quick solution is to use Find and Replace in Files and search on
<?rh-ignored text="cfg" ?> (with a space after)
and replace with
<?rh-ignored text="cfg" ?> (without the extra space).
Go to Edit > Find and Replace in Files.

Trouble opening project after upgrading from RH7 to RH8

We recently loaded a RH7 project into Source Control 3.1. All things seemed to be working well. Until last week I was the sole user of the program and editor on the project. Last week the IT department attempted to add a new user to the project, installing RH8. The new user profile attempted to open the project in RH8 but we have not been able to completely open the project. This was done before upgrading my PC from RH7 to RH8.
We were unable to open the project (and converting) in the new profile, however when viewing the project in Source Control, it showed all the files were checked out exclusively to the new profile. We were able to utilize the 'check in' function in SC as Admin users and checked in all the files.
My PC was then upgraded to RH8 and I am attempting to open the project. I received the Upgrade project dialog box. (I select 'Upgrade). I then recieve a warning 'Your project file, C:\....cpd, is corrupt and cannot be opened. Try deleting this file and reopening the project."
I did this and tried to open the project. I got as far as the status bar showing the files/project was being loaded. After several minutes the screen goes all white and the Task Manager shows that it is not responding.
Any suggestions for this novice?
thanks!

Hi,
Please try the following tech doc and see if this helps in resolving the issue or not. Make sure that you have the backup of your project before trying these steps:

Migration from Oracle Forms to HTML DB ?

Dear all,
is there a tool allowing to migrate from Oracle Forms to HTML DB ?
Thanks.
Best Regards.
Marcello.

Hello.
Thanks for your response.
Here is the motivation.
We have still applications developped with Oracle Forms 6i (old version no more supported). We are investigating for doing the migration with a limited expense to Oracle Forms 10g or HtmlDB.
Another questions are :
Is it possible to migrate from Oracle 6i to Oracle Forms 10g ?
Oracle Forms will still exists ? until when ?
Many thanks for your cooperation.
Best Regards.
Marcello.

Best practices for migrating merged WebHelp from RH7 to RH8?

We're using RH7 and we'll be migrating to RH8 in November. I'm startingto get the impression I should budget the time to build up each project anew in RH8 rather than just opening copies in the new UI and hoping it all works. Has anyone blazed this trail? Willing to chat about it?
Thanks

Hi Roy.
If the networked file was purely a backup there shouldn't have been a problem. If however the file was a source file for a project that was opened on a network drive it could very easily have caused you problems. Unfortunately most people find out the hard way

Conversion from RH7 to RH8 hangs on 1 of 5 projects - no err msg

I have successfully converted 4 of 5 RH7 projects. The one project that won't convert doesn't have anything special or different about it. It is not my most complex project nor my simplest.
Once the conversion starts the meter bar goes about 1/3 of the distance then RH8 locks up (stops responding). No error message is presented.
Pre conversion I removed the projects from RSC, removed read only attribute, and deleted .cpd.
I have tried the solution from this thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/2312324 (open the .hhp, selecting Noto the xpj prompt.) with no change in the result.
Obviously the problem is with the project, but I don't know what else to try. Is there a conversion log or some way to know what file is being converted when it locks up?
Specifics
OS = XP with all patches
RH = 8.0.2.208
Project location = C:\TW_Local\RoboHelpProjects (not a networked folder )
Project history =Originally an MS Word file, converted to RH6, converted to RH7
Project zip size = 28MB
Thanks for any help or ideas.
John

You could check if the rhvariable.apj file is blank. If it is, copy one from a working project. Or see snippet 79 on Peter Grainge's site which contains code you can paste in. The problem manifested in RH6, but it's possible it's still an issue in RH8.

[Migrating from 6i to 11G] HTML viewer

Hi,
There used to be a program to display the output of a report in 6i. When the report was displayed, it used page breaks (ESC characters) to allow the user to view the next page and print a range of pages from a report.
In 11G, these control characters are not interpreted by Internet Explorer:
>
height 85
width 94
before report esc "&l%%0O" esc "&l8D" esc "(s12H"
after report esc "E"
after page control(L)
[End Quote]
So how could I migrate the printer definition files in order to get after page control in 11G?
Many thanks for your help.

As my old college profession used to say - "The only stupid question is the one that doesn't get asked!" Forms 11g only supports web deployment. This means you will need the OAS with the Forms and Reports Services installed as well. Typically, the setup is three tiered ( 1 server = Database, 1 server = Application Server, 1 server = Infrastructure server ). You don't have to set up the technology stack multitiered - all three could reside on the same server or you could have the all three on the same machine but is not recommended. I would at least have the database on a server seperate from OAS.
Here are a few links to get you started.
Oracle Documentation
* Check out: Development Tools - Oracle Forms, Middleware - Applications Server - Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g and Middleware - Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence - Oracle Reports
Since you will be upgrading from Forms 6i to 11g, be sure to visit the Oracle Forms-Upgrading Forms 6i to Forms 11g documentation.
BTW, welcome to the forums!

Removing index.html from home page / remove .html tags from all other pages

Hello All,
I was wondering if there is a way to remove the index.html from my main page, so that www.mypage.com/index.html is simply www.mypage.com/. This also applies to all the other pages in the site, but only for the .html extension: www.mypage.com/contact.html becomes www.mypage.com/contact. Almost all sites I know do this, but I can't figure out the technique beyond working some crazy voodoo with Apache.
Thanks in advance for your help!

if 'index.html' is in your HOST server's default filename list, then you can omit its name from any link, e.g.,
<a href="/">Home</a>
That link will cause the server to load the default file found in the root folder of the site.
This is actually the preferred way to link to your home page.

Upgrading from RH7 to RH8: Problem with user-defined variables

Example:
Before upgrade: <uservariable name=Product_name1 x-showvalue x-value=MyProduct>MyProduct</uservariable>.
After upgrade: <?rh-udv_start name="Product_name1" ?>MyProduct<?rh-udv_end ?> .
Notice that there is now a space before the period. Any time my UDV is followed by another letter or punctuation, there is now an extra space. :-/ Does anybody know of a way to fix this besides using FAR to search and replace every possible combination of UDV + letter/punctuation?

Problems like that make me a whole lot happier that we upgraded from RHX5 where variables didn't exist! I think the best way forward IS to use a find and replace tool. Sorry.

Html tags in oracle reports

If fields of tables in my database contain html tags such as 'H2O' (here is html tag 'sub') or 'sometext'(here is html tag 'b') how can I to make Report Builder 6i to understand these tags? In other words - can Report Builder understand and treat html tags to format output layout?
Or how in another way I can format a part of text inside the field?
Example:
The below text comes from database and contains html tags.
 THIS IS DEMO TEXT TO TEST HTML TAGES IN REPORTS 
<TD >Technology Centers
</TD>
<html><body dir=&Direction bgcolor="#ffffff"> </body></html>
<html><body dir=&Direction bgcolor="#ffffff">this is test</body></html>

Hello Learnotd,
Depending on your requirements, you can do one of the following:
1. In Reports Builder, you can set the default values for the DESFORMAT system parameter to HTML, DESTYPE to FILE and DESNAME to the desired output file name, in the object navigator. Now, running the report will generate it to the HTML file, instead of displaying it in the previewer.
2. If you are using the command-line executables, 'destype=file' and 'desformat=html' arguments will produce HTML output (using rwcli60, rwcgi60 or rwrun60) to the file specified by desname.
3. If you calling Reports from Forms, desformat=html should be included in the run_report_object call.
Thanks,
The Oracle Reports Team.

Oracle Reports: Print HTML tags

I am reading data from DB that contains HTML tags and would like the tags to be interpreted when the PDF report is displayed. Currently, the HTML tags are being displayed in the report.
When I output the report as a HTML is tags are interpreted and looks ok.
How do I convert the HTML tags in the report is displayed as PDF?
Thanks for your response.

Hi Ram,
You can create a postscript file or a PDF file and give that
to the print shop for printing. It's pretty easy. Go to the File
menu, choose Generate to File, and then choose Postscript or PDF.
Note that Reports will use the driver for the printer to which
you are connected at the time you generate the file. You may have
to do some tests to make sure that that printer driver is
compatible with that of the print shop. I would generate a test
file from Reports and see if it works with their printer.

How can I eliminate HTML tags from Oracle Text Snippet?

I perform a search on many tables and on many columns of those tables.
Some of those columns are VARCHAR2 and some CLOB.
Also, some of the searchable data are HTML and some are plain text.
My problem is that ctx_doc.snippet fetches the HTML tags.
For example I get this, as a snippet result in one of my searches: Qual Germany n1 Test Qual Germany n1
I want the result to be fetched without the HTML tags.
In my index configuration I have used NULL FILTER and HTML_SECTION_GROUP.With that configuration I managed to eliminate the HTML tags but not in all cases!
For example:
I search table CONTENTS columns TITLE(VARCHAR2) and MAIN_TEXT(CLOB)
I created the following procedure that concatenates the two columns:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE CONTENTS_PROC( p_id in rowid, p_lob IN OUT clob)
IS
BEGIN
FOR c1 IN (SELECT main_text||' '||title data FROM contents WHERE ROWID = p_id)
LOOP
dbms_lob.copy( p_lob, c1.data,
dbms_lob.getlength( c1.data ));
END LOOP;
END;
I created a user Datastore:
BEGIN
ctx_ddl.create_preference( 'content_trans_datastore', 'user_datastore' );
ctx_ddl.set_attribute( 'content_trans_datastore', 'procedure', 'CONTENTS_PROC' );
END;
and finally I create the index:
CREATE INDEX content_trans_ot_idx ON contents(ORACLE_TEXT_COLUMN)
INDEXTYPE IS ctxsys.CONTEXT PARAMETERS ('datastore content_trans_datastore SYNC(ON COMMIT) STORAGE INDEX_STORAGE filter ctxsys.null_filter section group ctxsys.html_section_group');
When I perform the search on those data: Test Doc-Test the snippet I get is: Test Doc-Test.
That's fine, the html tags are removed!
In another case I search table NCP columns NAME(VARCHAR2) and BODY(VARCHAR2)
I created the following procedure that concatenates the two columns:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE NCP_PROC( p_id in rowid, p_lob IN OUT clob)
IS
BEGIN
FOR c1 IN (SELECT name||' '||body data FROM ncp WHERE ROWID = p_id)
LOOP
dbms_lob.copy( p_lob, c1.data,
dbms_lob.getlength( c1.data ));
END LOOP;
END;
I created a user Datastore:
BEGIN
ctx_ddl.create_preference( 'ncp_trans_datastore', 'user_datastore' );
ctx_ddl.set_attribute( 'ncp_trans_datastore', 'procedure', 'NCP_PROC' );
END;
and finally I create the index:
CREATE INDEX ncp_trans_ot_idx ON ncp(ORACLE_TEXT_COLUMN)
INDEXTYPE IS ctxsys.CONTEXT PARAMETERS('datastore ncp_trans_datastore SYNC(ON COMMIT) STORAGE INDEX_STORAGE filter ctxsys.null_filter section group ctxsys.html_section_group');
When I perform the search on those data: test http://deleteme.com the snippet I get is: test http://deleteme.com!!!!!!!!!!
How is this possible? Why in the first case the HTML tags are eliminated and in the second case they are not?
Thanks,
Margarita
Edited by: user13312701 on 07-Sep-2010 08:51

Doing various tests I found out that the problem is when I need to search in multiple columns of a table.
That is when I create a user_datastore that uses a procedure that concatenates the columns.
And especially when the data with the html tags is in a VARCHAR2 column.
e.g
--create the table*
CREATE TABLE CONTENT_TRANS (content_trans_id NUMBER,
main_text CLOB,
title vARCHAR2(2000),
oracle_text_column VARCHAR2(1));
alter table "CONTENT_TRANS" add constraint CONTENT_PK primary key("CONTENT_TRANS_ID") ;
--Insert dummy data*
Insert into CONTENT_TRANS
(CONTENT_TRANS_ID,MAIN_TEXT,TITLE)
values
(1,'lorem','lorem qualification 2.1 ');
Insert into CONTENT_TRANS
(CONTENT_TRANS_ID,MAIN_TEXT,TITLE)
values
(2,'lorem','lorem qualification 2.1 ');
--CREATE THE procedure that concatenates main_text(CLOB) and title(VARCHAR2)*
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE CONTENT_TRANS_PROC( p_id in rowid, p_lob IN OUT clob)
IS
BEGIN
FOR c1 IN (SELECT main_text||' '||title data FROM content_trans WHERE ROWID = p_id)
LOOP
dbms_lob.copy( p_lob, c1.data,
dbms_lob.getlength( c1.data ));
END LOOP;
END;
--Create the user datastore*
BEGIN
ctx_ddl.create_preference( 'content_trans_datastore', 'user_datastore' );
ctx_ddl.set_attribute( 'content_trans_datastore', 'procedure', 'CONTENT_TRANS_PROC' );
END;
--Create the index*
CREATE INDEX content_trans_ot_idx ON content_trans(ORACLE_TEXT_COLUMN)
INDEXTYPE IS ctxsys.CONTEXT PARAMETERS ('datastore content_trans_datastore SYNC(ON COMMIT) filter ctxsys.null_filter section group ctxsys.html_section_group');
exec ctx_doc.set_key_type('PRIMARY_KEY');
--Perform the query
SELECT SCORE(1),ct.content_trans_id, ctx_doc.snippet('content_trans_ot_idx', ct.content_trans_id, 'lorem') as snippet
from content_trans ct
where contains(ct.ORACLE_TEXT_COLUMN, 'lorem', 1) > 1;
Results WITH NOT WANTED HTML TAGS:
6 1 lorem lorem qualification 2.1
6 2 lorem lorem qualification 2.1

Problem removing html tags from the text retrived

Hi there,
I am using jdbc to connect the database and retriving the data. In one of the columns along with the description there are some html tags in few of the recors of that column. is there a way to retrive the text only ignoring the html tags in between. Or can i retrive and then strip off the html code in the text to display only normal text.
example of the data retrived which are pipe seperated and one of the columns has html tags in it:
209|The euphoria |187945-2|http://www.abc/lst.jsp?mktgChannel=I86023&sku=18791-2&siteID=qpF0HYnRugA|http://www.abc.com/assets/images/product/medium/18793-2_198.jpg|Rooftop Singers: Walk Right In | abc Music proudly presents THE FOLK YEARS, an unforgettable era in music history! Featuring: 
<LI>The most complete collection of folk and folk-rock songs ever put together -- 132 classics!
<LI>Original hits by the original artists!
Now i need to remove the tags before displaying this on the output. Is there a simple way to do this.
Thanks...

Did you read the documentation of the trim() method,
where it describes which whitespace it removes?I believe his problem is that
"Some text here
<blah>
More text"becomes
"Some text here
More text"... and he wants ...
"Some text here
More text"So, your problem is that your regex isn't matching whitespace as well.
See the "Trimming Whitespace" section:
