Update articles loaded with sidecar.xml file

I've used a path-based sidecar.xml file to load a folio, which worked great. Now I've made fixes on the files and want to Update them, but I get an error message when I try. I also tried to "Relink" the files, which has worked in the past but now doesn't. I have alternate layouts for iPad and Retina versions, and the sidecar is set to select the Retina layout. Has the v32.1 update changed anything about this? Is there a workaround?
Thanks, Beth

Updating Metadata with a sidecar.xml file...

... forces the app to be redownloaded again in ACV even if we have not made any modification in the articles.
Why modifying the sidecar.xml file creates this unnecessary and time consuming process ?

You use the web interface of xmlsidecar generator made by Johannes Henseler and the push the button there "generate". Copy paste that into a plain text file and then change tex extension from txt to xml. That's how you do a sidecar.xml the easy way.
Afterwards, yo've got to import "multiple files" (or "many files"... my DPS is a Spanish one) from Folio Builder.
If the folder are structured properly, folio builder will start swallowing the data of sidecar and uploading the articles.
Right now, while posting this, my pc is doing that with about one hundred articles. As happy and busy as a beaver in heat

Not able to import the article with sidecar.xml

Hi,
With the new DPS version (ver. 18), we are not able to import the article with sidecar.xml. Could you please check and suggest the solution for the same.
With Regards,
Anil Yadav

I read that your sidecar needs the author-value to be working.

V18 : can't import multiple articles with sidecar.xml ?

Hello,
I have successfully upgraged to v18 (tools and folio panel).
Now, I can't import multiple articles if there's a sidecar.xml file.
If I remove the sidecar, it works.
Do you experiment this problem ?
Thanks

It seems you are asking in wrong forum. AFAIK, you are asking "how to add HTTP header to response generated by my own script". It depend on WWW server we are speaking of and language of script itself. If you will fail to found solution within documentation of the HTTP server and/or scripting language you are using, then the better place for your question is a forum related to such language and HTTP server.
In meantime, you can try other solituin. The "Refresh: 0;..." header is required for correct function of SoftKey:Next which is displayed by default. But you can redefine the content of SoftKey area using your own key. Such configuration is part of DirectoryObject you sent to phone. See definition of SoftKey 3 in example bottom. It's not original SoftKey:Next that depend on Refresh header. It's my own custom soft-key named "Next" with exact URL defined as part of key definition (replace 'N' with number of next page). It doesn't depend on Refresh header in any way. You should consider such advice as "temporary workaround". You should discover how to send HTTP header 'Refresh' from your script. Note, it's not possible to redefine one SoftKey only. If you wish to redefine a soft-key, then all soft-keys need's to be defined by you.

How do I create a sidecar.xml file?

Hello- I have used Johannes' very rad sidecar generator and adobe's instructions on how to upload the file, but can't seem to get it to work. I have a feeling it's because they both start with an assumption:
"Use a text editor or an XML editor to create a sidecar.xml file..."
"Write the lines into a sidecar.xml file"
How do I create the original sidecar.xml file, in which to paste the metadata generated by Johannes' tool?
http://projects.nordsueddesign.de/sidecarxml/#

How can i load Client side XML file to Table

Hi,
How can i load the all the XML files (near 10,000 files) available in client machine to the XML table .
I did try with directrory list in the Webutility demo form, but when the number of file is near to 1,500 its giving error.
Please suggest the best method to implement my requirements.
1. XML fies are in a folder in end users machine(Windows OS)
2. I need to load all the XML files to table (Oracle Database is in Unix)
I am using forms 10g
Thanks in advance.
Rizly

Hi,
What is the error you are getting when you reach 1,500 records? Can you post it? You mentioned you are using the webutil to load them. How you are loading? From the client machine you are loading to the database directly? Can you post the code you are using for that?

Load data in xml file into Pdf form created by LiveCycle Designer

I want to load data in xml file into Pdf form when Pdf opened and Form field will be filled with data from xml file .I try to use $host.importdata("filename.xml"); But i could not find suitable place to run my code. Can anyone give me some advice? thank you.

Hi,
extract your xml and then you can use insert all clause.
here's very small example on 10.2.0.1.0
SQL> create table table1(id number,val varchar2(10));
Table created.
SQL> create table table2(id number,val varchar2(10));
Table created.
SQL> insert all
2 into table1 values(id,val)
3 into table2 values(id2,val2)
4 select extractValue(x.col,'/a/id1') id
5        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/value') val
6        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/value2') val2
7        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/id2') id2
8 from (select xmltype('<a><id1>1</id1><value>a</value><id2>2</id2><value2>b</value2></a>') col from dual) x;
2 rows created.
SQL> select * from table1;
        ID VAL
         1 a
SQL> select * from table2;
        ID VAL
         2 b                                                                    Ants

I want to load large raw XML file in firefox and parse by DOM. But, for large XML file the firefox very slow some time crashed . Is there any option to increase DOM handling memory in Firefox

Actually i am using an off-line form to load very large XML file and using firefox to load that form. But, its taking more time to load and some time the browser crashed. through DOM parsing this XML file to my form. Is there any option to increase DOM handler size in firefox

Thank you for your suggestion. I have a question,
though. If I use a relational database and try to
access it for EACH and EVERY click the user makes,
wouldn't that take much time to populate the page with
data?
Isn't XML store more efficient here? Please reply me.You have the choice of reading a small number of records (10 children per element?) from a database, or parsing multiple megabytes. Reading 10 records from a database should take maybe 100 milliseconds (1/10 of a second). I have written a web application that reads several hundred records and returns them with acceptable response time, and I am no expert. To parse an XML file of many megabytes... you have already tried this, so you know how long it takes, right? If you haven't tried it then you should. It's possible to waste a lot of time considering alternatives -- the term is "analysis paralysis". Speculating on how fast something might be doesn't get you very far.

An error has occurred while updating article layouts. The InDesign file for the layout cannot be...

When trying to complete the tutorial for indesign I get the following error when trying to add an article to my folio:
"An error has occurred while updating article layouts. The InDesign file for the layout cannot be found."
I am able to create the folio then I click into articles. My document "WiFi_v.indd" is open when clicking add article, but I keep getting this error message.
I am using the following versions of the software (Should be the latest).
- Folio Builder (Downloaded version Version 1.1.8.0)
reported version:
11.4.3.20111129_m672305 7.5.5.17
Adobe In Design 7.5.2 CS 5.5
Also tried reinstalling the plugins (uninstall + install)

If you're on Mac OS with the OS in another language than english the "User" folder might contain a non english character and causing problems.
I e in Sweden the Mac OS user-folder is called "Användare". When attempting uploading articles from a file locaded anywere this "Användare" is in the file path the Folio producer says Error finding InDesign layout, due to -what i think is-the "ä" in Användare. If you still want to work local you can place the InDesign files directly into the Macintosh HD. In this case the User folder is not used.

Load data from XML files into BI

Hi All,
Can any one guide me through the steps which involve in loading data from XML files into BI?
Thanks
Santosh

Hi James,
I have followed upto step No: 12 .
Please could you let me know how to link the XML file on my local drive to BI,
I am not able to find figure out where to specify the path of the XML file to be loaded into BI.
Thanks In Advance
Regards,
San
1. Create a Infosource(ZIS), with transfer structure in accordance with the structure in the XML file. (You can open the XML file with MS Excel.This way you can get to know the structure).
2. Activate the transfer rules.
3. After activation ;from the Menu Bar , Select Extras>Create BW Datasource with SOAP connection.
4.Now Activate the Infosurce again, this creates an XML based Datasource(6AXXX...)
5.These steps would create two sub nodes under the Infosource(ZIS).
6.Select Myself system and create a data package and execute it run in Init mode(without Data Transfer).
7. This would create an entry in RSA7(BW delta Queue)
8. Again create another Delta Infopackage under it, and run it. Now the Datasource(6AXXXXXX..) would turn green in RSA7.
9.In Function builder(SE37) select your FM( do a search ,F4, on the datasource 6AXXX....) .
10.Inside this RFC based FM , from the Menu Bar select Utilities>more Utilities>Create Web services>From Function module.
11.A wizard will guide you through the next steps .
12.once this is done a Web serrvice would be enabled in WSADMIN. Select your FM and execute it.
13.From here you can upload the data from XML file into BW delta queue.

Build a web gallery with amazing flash slideshows with dynamic XML files
Screenshot:
Features
Features
Transitions, zooming and panning effect You can choose from Random, Wipe from Left, Fade to White, Cross Expansion and other 60-plus transition effects. Zooming and panning effect is optional for advanced flash templates.
XML-driven This flash slideshow are XML-driven. The XML document allows more personalized controls over the flash.
Auto-playback and repeat mode The flash slideshow will play automatically after preloading, and it can repeat playback.
Dynamic customization Besides XML control, the advanced templates provide many more custom options, so that you can create slideshow that fits into your existing web design: width , height, border color, background color, thumbnail size, etc. More about dynamic customization
Usage and demo visit: http://webdesigndevelopment.blog.com...swf-xml-files/

Please excuse the bump...
Anyone with a LR flash gallery that starts with slideshow in play mode?
Can it even be set to do this?
The only code in the style.xml that looks like it might be realted is line 12 <playOptions playMode="pause"/>, changing that to "play" does nothing.

I read files from the web, but there is a XML tag
with the encoding attribute in the RSS file.If you are quite sure that you have an encoding attribute set to ISO-8859-1 then I expect that your RSS file has non-ISO-8859-1 character though I thought all bytes -128 to 127 were valid ISO-8859-1 characters!
Many years ago I had a problem with an XML file with invalid characters. I wrote a simple filter (using FilterInputStream) that made sure that all the byes it processed were ASCII. My problem turned out to be characters with value zero which the Microsoft XML parser failed to process. It put the parser in an infinite loop!
In the filter, as each byte is read you could write out the Hex value. That way you should be able to find the offending character(s).

Printing invoice with only XML file

Hi all,
I have a problem. When the invoice print with XMLP 5.6.2 is OK, but users want the possibility to reprint the same invoice with the same informations when they want (same if the bill's addresse has changed, for example). Is it possible to reprint the invoice with the XML file generated at the first time and how?
Thanks

You can do this by running XML Report Publisher and selecting the original request that was run. This will pick up the original XML and apply it to the specified template to recreate the original invoice(s).
Cheers,
Dave
