Replace '&' with 'AND'

Hi All
I am creating a XML file with a procedure.
It works fine but when i want to open it gives the error bcos of '&'
For that i want to use the escape(is it right)
like for description field how can i query to replace '&' with 'AND'
can anyone help me in quering it as well
Please let me know
Thanks
Mandar

There's no need to replace the ampersands with 'and'. Encode them before adding them to an XML:
target_string := dbms_xmlgen.convert('string with an & here', dbms_xmlgen.entity_encode);And use "entity_decode" when you're reading from the XML.

XSLT mapping not working b'coz " " & " " replaced with and

Hello Experts,
I have a RFC to JMS scenario. One of the parameter of RFC is a string field. This field will contain the XML data in it.
I need to create a complete XML payload using this data in a string field. For this I am using XSLT map :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.1" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" >
     <xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="no"/>
     <xsl:template match="/">
          <xsl:for-each select="//Nem">
               <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
          </xsl:for-each>
     </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
This XSLT mapping works fine when tested independently.
But in actual scenario at runtime the "<" & ">" used to indicate a node are getting replaced with < and >. Then the XSLT mapping fails and produces no output.
The output of XSL will be passed in to a java mapping which signs the payload digitally.
What is the issue with these signs? How can I overcome this problem?
Any inputs will be of great help.
Kind Regards,
Abhijeet.

Hi Stefan,
Yes - I want to get rid of & # 60. But these (& # 60 and & # 62) are not added by XSLT mapping. Rather they are in the input available to XSLT map.
In sxmb_moni, i can see the inbound payload correctly :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <rfc:HDK083_REFUS_SENDDOCU xmlns:rfc="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">

but when I try to download the payload or right click on payload to view source I get something like below:

Nielsen-1503831372 (23. oktober 2009)& #60;/ReferenceAttributTekst& #62;
(extra spaces added to "& # 60" as browser was converting it to < ,>)
If i take the source code for payload and test XSLT mapping, it fails. But if I manually replace all "& # 60" with < and "& # 6 2" with >, then the mapping works fine.
So I think for XSLT map to work correctly, we need to replace all "& # 60 " . Please suggest.

Dead CD-R/RW drive. Which model to replace with and where do I get it???

Please help if you can. I have had my Imac for 4+ years and the CD-R/RW just died. I need to replace, but can't figure out from anyone which model and where to buy it.
The current information is as follows from the CD-ROM that has been removed. SONY, CD-R/RW Drive Unit.
Model No. CRX170E
Serial No. 7079750
Version: BA
Full bar code and white label on face is as follows:
SCDRW CRX17 678T0030 *SD21520ZLKOHA
I have looked throughout this forum, but can not see anything as to replacing the drive. I don't want an external, I want to fix the internal one with a replacement. I assume eventually this information may be useful to the Do It Yourselfers out there as it's only time before they die. Thanks in advance for any help...!

The 'fitting' document you sent is quite amazing and a great resource and reference guide. Unfortunately, it's not exactly what I needed.
What I need to know is where do I look to find a 100% compatible, super drive that would of shipped with the upgraded versions of my particular IMAC. I have found a ton of information as to incompatible drives with idvd 6.x, Itunes 6.x, etc. but no reference or on-line retailer that will enable me to replace my DEAD cd drive with a compatible superdrive.
System details are as follows:
Name: iMac G4 (Flat Panel)
Model: Mxxxx iMac G4 700MHz
Bus speed: 100MHz
Screen size: 15 inch
Factory: QT (Quanta, Taiwan)
URL: Technical specifications by apple-history.com codetonumber: 101 - 5U5109MDS43
Model introduced: 2002
Production year: 2002
Production week: 24 (June)
Production number: 1157 (within this week)
Finally, Sadly I had the low-end as described in the attached link near the bottom of this article. However, as stated direct from the apple-history description a superdrive was comptabile with this type of system. Surely there would be a newer model of CD-R/RW DVD Combo drive available to replace it with...? Yes/No...?

User name replaced with ,#,#,#,#

Over the fall, we upgraded our sharepoint 2007 site to sharepoint 2010. We only updated the platform and back end though, we left it set up with the same 2007 sharepoint look and feel. Once we upgraded, we started to come across several problems, one of
the more annoying ones is users with all but full admin permissions to sites getting locked out of pages they have access to and edit capabilities to. Sharepoint allows the user to edit a page but when they try to check it in, their username is replaced with
",#,#,#,#" and then they get denied access because no user named ",#,#,#,#" has access to our site. Has anyone else experienced this problem or has a suggestion of where to start looking
to solve it? It happens on every page

Hi,
Let’s verify the following:
Make sure that all the Master page, CSS files, any other files that are required are published. If there are files that are required in the master pages and are not published, users will get access denied even if they have full control on the site.
Provide global read access to the master page library. Site actions > site settings > Master Page and page layouts > Library tab > Permissions. Add All authenticated users to READ ONLY.
Here is a similar post, refer to it:
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/60699/user-with-full-control-permission-is-getting-access-denied-message
whether the issue persists in any other site collection within the same web application. Add a new "User Policy" for the web application that allows "All Authenticated Users" the permissions "Full Read" on the desired zone.

When i go to sync my apps with my computer it tells me ''are you sure you want to sync apps ? all exsisting apps and there data on (iphone) will be replaced with the apps on this itunes library'' does this mean all my data will be lost if i continue ?

when i go to sync my apps with my computer it tells me ''are you sure you want to sync apps ? all exsisting apps and there data on (iphone) will be replaced with the apps on this itunes library'' does this mean all my data will be lost if i continue ?

Regarding your broken, previously authorized computer, here's how that works:
You would authorize your new computer -- maybe you've done that already. Then you will have two computers authorized. Apple allows you to have up to five computers authorized at any time. If you get to five, you can then go to your account details in iTunes and remove all authorizations.
Bear in mind this is not saying you can synch to more tham one library. Razmee209 and gdgmacguy's comments above are correct. But if Apple only allowed you to authorize one computer at a time, then having a broken computer would mean you could no longer use your Apple ID with iTunes.

Is the music I downloaded from my CD's already in the iCloud or only the music I purchased on itunes?

What happened to my mail access on home page, it just vanishes after stat-up and is replaced with ads ? How do I fix it?

It's always worked until this past week, nothing changed by user that I know of. I've checked pop-up blocker to no avail. Using Avira free security, it updated a few days ago, did a restore after it was updated to before the update, didn't help either. Want let me open Hughes net mail in Fire Fox at all. Can access it from Explorer but hat Explorer, it's slower than Fire Fox. Any help is appreciated as I've run out of ideas.

I am not entirely sure what problems you are reporting.
# Home Page are you able to set that as required or not ?
#Webmail
#* I am not clear, are you able to open that with Firefox ?
#* I understand you are able to open it with Internet Explorer
Are you saying that your webmail is set as one of your home pages, but that it is replaced with something else ?
Do other websites and searches work ok in Firefox or are you also having other problems in Firefox use ?

It's not crap at all.
It's not that simple. For example, I've 3500 songs on my MacBook but don't want them all on my phone, so I have to manually select each song again???
There has to be a solution.
Why not simply make a playlist with the songs you want on the iPhone?
and maintain a current backup of your computer.

If my battery life is getting lower and lower, can I get my iPod replaced with a new one with the guaranty?

Bought my iPod 10months ago, now the battery life is really bad!!! I need to know if I can get it replaced with the guaranty! Thanks :)

I'd make an appointment at your local apple store, have them check it out and see what they say. If they determine that it's a manufacturer's defect then they may replace it.
In case they do, I'd do a full sync and backup before you take it in.

HT4191 Notes getting mixed up and or replaced with other users i-phone?

For some reason whenever I sync my i-phone 4s and my wife syncs her i-phone 4 to itunes on our laptop which is a compaq(I don't know if that might be a problem) by the way, some of her notes always gets deleted and gets replaced with my notes, and she'll have just a couple of her notes but most of mine. It's been driving us crazy for months now cuz we can't figure it out! Do we need to sync our phones on different computers? Is there a setting that I'm missing? What are we doing wrong????

Please let me know whether you experience the following issue, and submit feedback (or if you are an Apple Developer, a bug report). This issue is not related to synchronization.

6. Click on a different contact in the search results list.
Expected Results:
The change is saved and the changed contact disappears from the search results list.
Actual Results:
All found contacts disappear from the search results list, and all found contacts' Notes are replaced with the changed contact's Notes.
Regression:
This issue did not exist in OSX 10.7's Address Book app. I have not had the opportunity to test earlier releases of OSX 10.8's Contacts app.
Notes:
Example:
Suppose a search for "P1" finds three contacts:
Name: Alan | Note: Ask permission. P1
Name: Betsy | Note: Backup files. P1
Name: Charles | Note: Call. P1
While "Edit Card" mode is NOT enabled, in Alan's note, change "P1" to "P2". Then click on Betsy in the search results list. Betsy and Charles' Notes are erroneously and permanently replaced with Alan's Note:
Name: Alan | Note: Ask permission. P2
Name: Betsy | Note: Ask permission. P2
Name: Charles | Note: Ask permission. P2

My iPhone 5 has broken and is being replaced with a new iPhone tomorrow. However, My carrier (orange) will b picking up my broken iPhone and I am unsure how to secure the content and icloud data on the broken phone. Is there a way to disable the data held on it and ensure that if it is fixed, nobody can use/see my data and access my account?

Hi Gazpan,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I recommend using the steps in this article to back up your iPhone if possible:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
You may also find this advice helpful for your situation:
What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

If you no longer have your iOS device
If you're using iCloud and Find My iPhone on the device, you can erase the device remotely and remove it from your account by signing in to icloud.com/find, selecting the device, and clicking Erase. When the device has been erased, click Remove from Account.
If you're unable to complete either of the above steps, you should change your Apple ID password. Changing your password won't remove any personal information that is cached on the device, but it will make sure that the new owner can't delete your information from iCloud.
Cheers,
Jeremy

Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything back on the computer.

HT1338 Updated my imac from 10.6 to 10.8.2 recently. My iphoto logo in my Dock has been replaced with a transparent "question mark" and I can no longer access my iPhotos... please help!! Mark Howell

Why can I no longer find my iphotos? Updated from 10.6 to 10.8.2 recently... The iphoto logo in my dock has been replaced with a transparent, grey, question mark... why? How do I restore my iphotos? Searched for them in Finder, and in "search"... they appear as text only.. but no photos.. please help.. Mark

Have you verified that the iPhoto applications is not in the Applications folder or somewhere else on the hard drive?
To do so download and use Find Any File to search for "iPhoto.app" because FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't. If the application is somewhere else on the HD FAF will find it. However, I doubt that it will be there but it's worth a search.

HT1719 I have music on my Shuffle and want to transfer it onto iTunes but when I go to Sync it, it warns me that all the music on my Shuffle will be deleted and replaced with what's on my iTunes. I have a new mac-mini and my old computer was an HP.

Can anyone tell me how to tranfer the music that is on my Shuffle to iTunes? When I go to Sync it, it gives me a warning that all the music on my Shuffle will be deleted and replaced with what is on my iTunes. I recently changed computers from an HP to a Mac-Mini and did not transfer/sync the itunes prior to getting rid of my itunes. So the music I had on itunes does not appear in my library. Help please!

See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your new Mac and into iTunes.
Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
Then proceed to do the Erase and Sync or restore the device.
