Need help in XML Bursting..

Hi all,
I want to use XML bursting approch to sent emails to customers.
-->Requirement is Emails should be sent with excel attachment.
I designed my xxabc.rdf(oracle 10g reports) and xxabc.rtf(XML publisher,R12).
and i created Data definition and tepmlate and registerd in oracle apps through Concurrent program.Output is in excel format and its working fine.
Now i need to schedule this report to run every night and i need to send this report output,which is in excel format, to customer through email..
Can anybody help me out, by suggesting the step by step process.
--Harry

Please refer to the Bi Publisher help page Titled "Creating a Data Model" and look for the topic "What is the Bursting Definition?".
Essentially what you need to do is create a burst definition sql script that will associate the email address to the data definition key. For example, if the data model has a person, John Doe, identified as 01234, then your burst definition will have a column labelled as "KEY" that will contain the id "01234". Another column in the bursting definition labelled as "Parameter 1" will contain the email address. For the same definition the "TEMPLATE" column will be the name of the report template you created in BIP, the column "DEL_CHANNEL" will be set to the constant "EMAIL".
To summarize, the following are the requirements of the bursting definition, create a sql script with column names as shown.
Column Name: Description
KEY: A unique identifier of the person in the report definition.
TEMPLATE: The name of the report template to send in the email
OUTPUT_FORMAT: EXCEL|EXCEL2000
DEL_CHANNEL: EMAIL
PARAMETER1: Email address
PARAMETER2: cc
PARAMETER3: From
PARAMETER4: Subject
PARAMETER5: Message body
PARAMETER6: Attachment value ('true' or 'false'). If your output format is PDF, you must set this parameter to "true" to attach the PDF to the e-mail.
PARAMETER7: Reply-To
PARAMETER8: Bcc
(PARAMETER 9-10 are not used)
You will need to ensure the scheduler and email delivery are properly configured in the Admin panel.
In the report properties, set the bursting definition to the name saved for the previously saved bursting definition. Run the report as a schedule job and the report will be sent as an email to the addresses in the bursting definition.

Need help in xml bursting email bodt contents based on condition

Dear All,
I have a requirement as below.
I am developing a xml publisher report with bursting functionality, i need to set a email body based on some condition, so please help me out how i can set the email body dynamically in xml bursting file.
Note:The email body may be huge. for ex:
Dear ${LINE_MANAGER_POSITION}, 
 The probationary period for ${FULL_NAME} holding Worker Number ${EMPLOYEE_NUMBER} will end on ${PROBATION_END_DATE}. Please be sure to assess the employee carefully and fill out the attached Probationary Period Report, sign it, and send it to your HR Business Partner ${HR_BP_EMP_NAME} before ${PROB_END_DATE_BEFORE}. 
 Please note: 
 <ul> <li> The maximum probationary period allowed by UAE labor law is six months starting from the Hire Date. Probation extensions beyond six months are not permitted.</li> </ul>
 <ul> <li> During the probationary period, the Employee has the right to end ${GENDER} employment contract with five working days notice period.</li> </ul>
 <ul> <li> According to UAE labor law, the Employee is considered a permanent Employee with limited or unlimited contract if ${A_HE_SHE} is not notified that ${A_HE_SHE} is not suitable for the position ${A_HE_SHE} is assigned to. Dubai Petroleum Establishment Human Resources Division will consider the probationary period to be successful if you do not complete and sign the Probationary Period Evaluation form for ${FULL_NAME} before ${PROB_END_DATE_BEFORE}.</li> </ul>
 <ul> <li> If the Employee passes the probationary period successfully and is subsequently deemed unsuitable for the assigned Position then the HR disciplinary process prevails.</li> </ul>
 For more information on the Employee probationary period process and assessment approaches, please <a href="_http://dullap01/livelink/livelink.exe/open/29695955"> click here </a> or contact your Human Resources Business Partner ${HR_BP_EMP_NAME} at <a>${HR_BP_EMAIL}</a> 
 Yours sincerely,

logo's should be pulling are the logo's directly embedded in format template?
Suggest you download and use the [Bursting Designer|http://bipublisher.blogspot.com/2009/09/bi-publisher-bursting-designer.html] and review the log file for errors. You will need to change your templates to point locally on your pc.

I need help with XML Gallery Fade in out transition. somebody please help me :(

I need help with XML Gallery Fade in out transition. somebody please help me
I have my post dont want to duplicate it

The problem doesn't lie with your feed, although it does contain an error - you have given a non-existent sub-category. You need to stick to the categories and sub-categories listed here:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#categories
Subscribing to your feed from the iTunes Store page work as such, but the episodes throw up an error message. The problem lies with your episode media files: you are trying to stream them. Pasting the URL into a browser produces a download (where it should play the file) of a small file which does not play and in fact is a text file containing (in the case of ep.2) this:
[Reference]
Ref1=http://stream.riverratdoc.com/RiverratDoc/episode2.mp3?MSWMExt=.asf
Ref2=http://70.33.177.247:80/RiverratDoc/episode2.mp3?MSWMExt=.asf
You must provide a direct link to the actual mp3 file. Streaming won't work. The test is that if you paste the URL of the media file (as given in the feed) into the address bar of a browser it should play the file.

Need help on XML Publisher Template features

Hi,
We have a requirement to develop an Invoice Register report to display the invoices for a period. Details of each Invoice and Amount needs to be displayed in a single line. At the bottom of each page we have to display running total of the Invoices displayed till that page. At the beginning of each page we have to display the total amount of Invoices displayed in the previous page.
We had developed the report using Reports Builder and registered concurrent program with output type as PDF. We are working in Spanish environment (UTF-8 character set). The report is working properly and producing output as required. But Spanish characters appear as junk character on the report. From Metalink Notes 443778.1 and 338990.1, I understand that PDF output in UTF-8 character set is not supported. We need to use XML Publisher to generate the PDF output.
We have developed .rtf template. It is generating PDF output and Spanish characters appearing properly. But we are not able to get the running total at the bottom of each page or total of previous page amounts at the beginning of each page. In the output from Reports Builder, we could use various page level options (like reset at page level, etc.) to achieve the requirement. But in the template generated using .rtf, I do not have such options.
I am not sure if there are advanced features in .rtf template to achieve the requirement. Could anyone please advise me how I can achieve the requirement? It would be great if you could provide me some reference.
Thanks and Regards,
Nabendu

Hi Nabendu.
BI publisher does have the option of showing a running total in PDF format usign a RTF template. If you look up the advanced rtf samples provided with the BI publisher plugin there is one example to show running totals, with the previous page total at the top.
you can find this located on your PC where the Word Plugin is installed. C:\Program Files (x86)\Oracle\BI Publisher\BI Publisher Desktop\samples\RTF templates
replace C:\ with the drive leeter of the drive where your desktop plugin is installed
Hope this Helps,
Domnic

Need help with xml video gallery

Hello everyone
I recently bought a xml video gallery. I'm loading the movie externally into another movie. When the xml gallery loads, it cancels all sounds.
I need to figure out where in the actionscription can i reverse the cancellation of sounds. Can anyone help? if possible, I can email, whomever is willing to help, the xml gallery to see if theres another reason the sound is being canceled.
Also, the sound of the gallery doesn't work til you click the volume scroller.
Here are two parts of actionscript included in the gallery:

I have below suggestions:
1. Please use code option given in message editor toolbar for posting any formatted content like XML, Java code snippet etc.
2. replace & in your source XML with _& a m p ;_ (Without spaces, I have put spaces to make it visible here).
3. I have modified your XSLT according output XML you have given. I am not sure what you want to do with some elements like , , <var> etc. change below XSLT as you require for these elements.
Modified XSLT:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
 <xsl:output method="xml"/>
 <xsl:template match="body">

Need help with XML delay URGENT!!!

Hi i need help making a flash movie to load everything from
xml. It has to load text, images and flv, but, it has to load them
and end them at the time said in the xml. So flash loads and
unloade the text or image or video at the time specified in the
XML! PLEASE HELP I NEED THIS DONE TODAY!!!!! VERY IMPORTANT!!!
Contact me by msn [email protected] or send mail or
reply here!!

It was probably a little unclear initially (no offence
intended ) whether your problem was with getting the data from XML
or with the sequencing aspect. I assume that its the sequencing
aspect based on your recent reply.
So if it was me I would parse the loaded info into Date
objects for the load and remove times and have this information
handled by some sort of sequencing code.
At its simplest, you could compare the xml-derived date/times
for load/unload with the current system date/time and use a
setInterval function to initiate the load after the calculated
difference in milliseconds has passed. Similar for the removeclip
timing.

<nome> in the array contatos_lista[], everytime I run
the program I get empty. Please I need help. I am
desperade.
Thanks in advace.
public String[] importaContatos() {
String contatos_lista[] = new String[ 12 ];
contatos_lista[0] = "N�o h� contatos";
Node nodeContato;
NodeList contatoChild;
DocumentBuilderFactory factory =

try {

tatos = new
File("D:/userdir/mycodes/NetMessage/contatos.xml");
DocumentBuilder builder =

document = builder.parse( contatos );
}catch (SAXParseException spe) {

}catch (IOException e){
Node nodeElement =
ement = document.getDocumentElement();
Node nodeChild = nodeElement.getParentNode();
Node nodeContatoLista = nodeChild;
NodeList contatoListaChild =
Child = nodeContatoLista.getChildNodes();
//JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null ,
(null , contatos_lista[0]);
for (int i = 0; i <=
0; i <= contatoListaChild.getLength(); i++){
nodeContato =
deContato = nodeContatoLista.getFirstChild();
nodeContato = nodeChild.getNextSibling();
contatoChild =
tatoChild = nodeContato.getChildNodes();
int count = 0;
for (int y = 0; y <
y = 0; y < contatoChild.getLength(); y++){
contatos_lista[count] =
atos_lista[count] =
contatoChild.item(y).getNodeValue();
count++;
return contatos_lista;
}This line appears to be wrong to me
Node nodeChild = nodeElement.getParentNode();
Why are you doing that?
Anyway it would be easier just to do
ement = document.getDocumentElement();
NodeList contatoListaChild = ement.getElementsByTagName("contato");
for (int i = 0; i <= contatoListaChild.getLength(); i++){
Element contato = contatoListaChild.item(i);

I need help with XML coding. Please reply

I recently created a podcast. I submitted it to iTunes. All was successful but the download speed was Horrible. I had about 10 people test it -- after that the ISP I use shifted my Domain to a Streaming Server. The Tech then changed the specs to my iTunes <guid>. I updated the info on iTunes, but since then no one has been able to download it from iTunes. The RSS feed on the page ( website) works, but if I type it in to an RSS feed, I am even having problems getting it to recognize it.
I feel the main problem is that the shifting of servers and changing the <guid> caused a major problem. Since my ISP and Tech rep is mainly Windows oriented, his expertise with Apple is very little. ( As is mine ).
I will insert a snippet of the code and ask for Help... I really need to fix this, because I have secured another Domain, and wish to create a new podcast.
(BTW if any one listens to any of them, I now have a mixing board and Mic.. so I am trying to better it.)

The problem doesn't lie with your feed, although it does contain an error - you have given a non-existent sub-category. You need to stick to the categories and sub-categories listed here:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#categories
Subscribing to your feed from the iTunes Store page work as such, but the episodes throw up an error message. The problem lies with your episode media files: you are trying to stream them. Pasting the URL into a browser produces a download (where it should play the file) of a small file which does not play and in fact is a text file containing (in the case of ep.2) this:
[Reference]
Ref1=http://stream.riverratdoc.com/RiverratDoc/episode2.mp3?MSWMExt=.asf
Ref2=http://70.33.177.247:80/RiverratDoc/episode2.mp3?MSWMExt=.asf
You must provide a direct link to the actual mp3 file. Streaming won't work. The test is that if you paste the URL of the media file (as given in the feed) into the address bar of a browser it should play the file.

Need Help Removing XML Photo Gallery on Button Click

Hi, I'm new to flash so this might seem like a dumb question, but I'm right in the middle of designing a photography site and need some help. I have 4 buttons in my timeline that go to the corresponding frame labels when clicked, above each frame label is a keyframe with actionscript applied to it, that will load an external XML photo gallery. I need the current photo gallery that's on the screen to disappear when I click on a new button to load the new XML photo gallery. this is the code that will be above each frame label with a few changes, then below this is the code for my buttons. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you Code: Select all var imageX:XML; var imageList:XMLList; var canvas:MovieClip = new MovieClip(); var picLoader:Loader; addChild(canvas); canvas.x = -155; canvas.y = 160; var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("gallery.xml"); var imageLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); imageLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete); imageLoader.load(req); function onComplete(e:Event):void { imageX = new XML(imageLoader.data); imageList = imageX.image; picLoader = new Loader(); picLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event .COMPLETE, imageLoaded); picLoader.load(new URLRequest (imageList[0].url)); } function imageLoaded(e:Event):void { canvas.addChild(picLoader); } Code for the buttons in different keyframe.

Stax reading /writing need help from xml guru plz

hi, i have been told that stax reading /writing should involve no overhead and that is why i use it and i am now able to write my large data to file, but using my reader i seem to run out of memory, using netbeans profiler i ahve found that char[] seems to be the problem,
by backtracing i ahve found that javax.xml.parser.SAXParser.parse calls the xerces packages which eventually leads to the char[ ], now my code for my reader is attatched here...

all i need at the end of this is a Collection which holds an array of testCollections, which holds an array of cCounts and i was able to hold all of this in memory as all i am loading is what was in memory before it was written.
can someone plz help
ps when i use tail in unix to read the end of the xml file it doesnt work correctly as i cannot specify the number of lines to show, it shows all of the file as thought it is not split into lines or contains new line chars or anything, it is stored as one long stream, is this correct??
here is a snippet of the xml file:

please if anyone has any ideas from this code why a char[] would use 50% of the memory taken, and that the average age seems to show that the same one continues to grow..
thanks in advance
danny =)

hi, i am still having lo luck with reading the xml data back into memory, as i have said before, the netbeans profiler is telling me it is a char[] that is using 50% of the memory but i cannot see how a char[] is created, my code doesn't so it must be the xml code...plz help

Need help processing XML files

I'm fairly new to Java and have never worked with XML. I need to process several XML files and display them in a matrix for comparison and I'm not sure if I need to understand SAX, DOM or some other API. I'm not creating the files, I'm just parsing them to put into a table so they can be displayed for comparison. I could be processing up to several hundreds of files, so performance would also be an issue.
I'm just looking for options and possible areas I can begin to look for help. Can anyone tell me which APIs would help me acheive my goal?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks for the response Kev. I guess a better diescription of the problem would be to say that I want to display the attributes and values of the differnet files in a matrix.
For example...
Here are 2 sample xml files with the same tags and attributes.
XML FILE A
<tag1 name="Fred", country="ca">
<tag2 group-name="Group 1">
<tag3 color ="blue">
</tag3>
</tag2>
</tag1>
XML FILE B
<tag1 name="Sue", country="us">
<tag2 group-name="Group 2">
<tag3 color="red">
</tag3>
</tag2>
</tag1>
I would like to have them displayed as follows...
XML FILE A XML FILE B
tag1 name Fred Sue
tag1 country ca us
tag2 group-name Group 1 Group 2
tag3 Color Blue Red
HTML tags didn't work, so the matrix is bunched together, but I think you get the idea. My question is, which would be better to use SAX or DOM. I could be running this on as many as 50 or 60 files, so the matrix could get very large and performance could be an issue as multiple users could be doing this comparison at the same time.

Need help with XML Conversion

I have a very large unstructured document that I need to convert to XML. This document once had a structure applied to it but somehow this structure was deleted (not by me). Since the structure was deleted, a fair amount of content has been added to the file.
Ive been reading through PDF help files and trying to figure out how to solve this problem. I am very new to this so any help or input would really be great.
So far thoughts on converting to XML are:
1) Get structure back working in the original file. I do not know if there is a way to transfer the structure Pre-Loss to the new file. I have created a conversion table already that I can use. I have ran the CT and created what seems to be a structured document, but I think I may be missing further steps.
2) Export the element definitions to an EDD
3) Convert the EDD to a DTD
4) Create a template file (not sure how to do this?)
Finally export to XML. Before I start on this some feedback would be very welcomed. Sorry I am very inexperienced with all of this.

Hello Frank,
with the conversion there is a problem concering the graphics/ xrefs.
after you have created the conversion table and structured your document you now can
save the document as xml file.
In the output you then will still have all graphics that are in the document, but the xrefs are missing.
convert the document via StructureTools > Utilities > Convert Documents to Structured Format.
In the output you then will have all the xrefs, but the graphics are missing.
However, it's possible that I'm not up-to-date her as I haven't tried this since quite some time now.
Point 2 and 3 from your list:
Normally it's the other way around: You have a DTD and import that as a new EDD file in FrameMaker.
Also I don't think that there really is a possiblity to export any element definitions from FrameMaker. But I'm happy, if you are able to disabuse me here.
Template file:
Any FM file. It just contains the page layout and the character formats etc.
What you need to do is to add a Structured Application containing all the information on where to find the Template, EDD, DTD and also the read and write rules.
With FrameMaker there are several Structured Applications delivered, e.g. DITA.
If you do not have enough experience to create a new structured application without any model, it's best to copy and modify one of these.

Anna

Need help with XML structure

Hello, I would like to create an extention that will help to
manage a
glossary.
First I need to decide on the structure of the xml document
that will
contain all glossary entries. Since I don't have much
experience with XML in
extention content, I was wondering if there are certain
recommendations I
should follow.
What is preferable: using attributes that will holt the
content or rather
having xml-elements. What is easy to parce?
I would greatly appreciate any tips, help and suggestions.

I would start as simple as possible, for example with
something like
this:
<glossary>
<entry>
<term>...</term>
<explanation>...</explanation>
</entry>
<entry>
<term>...</term>
<explanation>...</explanation>
</entry>
</glossary>
Of course it also depends on what you want to do with this
structure and
if you need additional informations.
>What is preferable: using attributes that will holt the

>having xml-elements. What is easy to parce?
There's no real rule-of-thumb whether to use elements or
attributes.
If unsure, use elements.

Need help in XML Parsing

Hello experts,
I have to validate a xml against schema.I have used some java code & xerces jar ro solve this problem.It's working fine.But it's showing only first error & it's coming out.I want to list all the errors.Please help me by guiding how to achieve it.Right now the code I am using is easy enough , I just need to provide the schema file & xml file.But if I have to find out all the errors , do I need to parse it line by line?Please help.Thanx tonn in advance.

Ya . this is possible if you have heard about XSLT transformation .
     File xmlFile = new File("XmlFileToTransform");
            File xsltFile = new File("U R SCHEMA");
     XMLReader reader = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader();
     reader.setEntityResolver(new NullResolver());
     FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(out);
                    Writer out = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(fos,
                              "UTF8"));
                    SAXSource xmlSource = new SAXSource(reader, new InputSource(
                              xmlFile.toURI().getRawPath()));
                    Source xsltSource = new StreamSource(xsltFile);
                    Result result = new StreamResult(out);
                    // create an instance of TransformerFactory
                    TransformerFactory transFact = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
                    Transformer trans = transFact.newTransformer(xsltSource);
                    trans.transform(xmlSource, result); // this will transform xml according to u r xslt file
                    out.close();see if this is helpful for u !
