XML data set picture gallery for thinkbox/lightbox/lightwindow ?
Hi, I want to do a gallery using thickbox or lightwindow or
lightbox. I have the pictures in XML file. How can I make a
pictures gallery using data set. I loaded the XML hive and I
pointed to the pictures and gave them ds1
but when I put link reference to {perspImage}
I click the link and I get new browser window not even
lightwindow. Can someone with some experience help?
(I linked all scripts, css already in the HTML and I tested
it on a single picture and it worked but I need to get a gallery
based on images in XML file) please help.
Thanks
I managed to mash Spry/thickbox/jquery/XML together
http://www.stjohnhistoricalsociety.org/Photographs.htm)
several years ago. I can't really remember the details very
well - but I
had to reverse the normal sequence of thickbox magic
enhancement followed by Spry region expansion.

Formatting tags in xml data set used for spry region
I am trying to put <p>,,,</p> tags in my xml data set but they cause the field to not load. For example I would like to create an xml file as follows:
<blog>
<blogentry>
<blogdate>Jan 2009</blogdate>
<blogtitle>January Blog</blogtitle>
<blogtext><p> this is a paragraph</p>
<p>and so is this</p>
</blogtext>
</blogentry>
</blog>
When I do this I don't get anything in the spry region. If I remove the <p>,</p> tabs it works.
Is there anyway to do this (not just with <p> but with any tags ... ie. tables, etc.).
Thanks/HalI have an online example:
http://www.pearlmanpr.com/perspective_test.html
The spBlog.xml file contains test junk. If I put the <[[CDATA....]]> inside the BlogEntry/BlogText tag it doesn't work at all.
http://www.pearlmanpr.com/perspective_test_2.html
If I use it without the <[[CDATA..]] it doesnt work either.
http://www.pearlmanpr.com/perspective_test_3.html
If I use it without any <> within the tag it sort of works (still needs to be aligned). -
Designing a 'sample time feed' for Spry XML Data Set
Hi!
Often when I call a Spry XML Data Set I find I can't get the
schema. If offers you the option to design a sample time feed but
doesn't give you enough info to be able to even guess how to do
this.
Is the answer in modifying that php line somehow?
Any guidance would be much appreciated!
MikeThe idea for Design Time XML is that you can use a static XML
file instead of a dynamic source, in case you don't have access to
the real data. You can use the Design Time XML to make the query
and design the page.
This gives you access to the data references for designing
the page.
If you are getting schema errors, the numbers that the dialog
shows is the line number and character number (1,1)
You should be able to see the XML directly in the browser. If
you can, then DW should be able to consume it. -
STATIC "HTML Data Set Photo Gallery" with CAPTIONS
Because of search engines and validation I would really like to use the STATIC "HTML Data Set Photo Gallery" http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/demos/gallery_pe/static/china.html.
But I definitely need captions for the Photos. I found possibilities to add them via XML, but not for the HTML-Version.
As far as I got I think I have to edit this function from "gallery_hds.js" and add some RegEx, to extract caption text.
function PhotosFilter(ds, row, rowIndex)
var tnStr = row.thumbimg;
if (tnStr)
row.path = tnStr.replace(/.*<a[^>]*href="?([^"]*)"?.*/i, "$1");
row.thumbpath = tnStr.replace(/.*<img[^>]*src="?([^"]*)"?.*/i, "$1");
return row;
In the following rows within the html-document
<span class="thumbnail"><a href="../../gallery/galleries/paris/images/paris_02.jpg"><img src="../../gallery/galleries/paris/thumbnails/paris_02.jpg" alt="paris_02.jpg" /></a></span>
I would insert text before the closing span-tag (or before the closing a-tag?) - like so
<span class="thumbnail"><a href="../../gallery/galleries/paris/images/paris_02.jpg"><img src="../../gallery/galleries/paris/thumbnails/paris_02.jpg" alt="paris_02.jpg" /></a>Here is some HTML Text</span>
This text must be extracted via RegEx - similar to the rows within the if-Statement of the upper mentioned function "PhotosFilter". But here my RegEx-knowledge is definitely to short!
Thank you very much in advance for any help or suggestion.

XML Data Set with Spry Slides - Please Help
Hi, I'm trying to combine XML Data Set with sliding tabs.
I've created two keys responsible for sliding the tabs:
<a id="previous" href="#"
onclick="sp1.showPreviousPanel();">Previous</a>
<a id="next" href="#"
onclick="sp1.showNextPanel();">Next</a>
Then XML Data Set is used to populate the tabs, but only a
single tab remains visible, and a "Next/Previous" buttons are used
to move to the next tab. And this is where the problem arises.
The problem is that, every time I refreash the gallery or
load it for the first time, I have to press TWICE the "Next" button
to move to the next image. After that, its all fine, and slides
well. It's only the FIRST time when loaded.
Please help.
Here's the full code:

I've just completed two tutorials by Don Booth.
1/Building a Spry Sliding Panels widget
2/Building a photo album with the Spry framework
But what I try to COMBINE them - display the photos in
sliding panels, I also need to DOUBLE click the "next" buton before
it starts scrolling.
Why is that Double Click needed? Help Please.

I have an issue with Spry XML Data sets that is driving me nuts.
The setup is quite straightforward. I have a PHP script which submits a SOAP request, the result of which is pure XML. I echo this XML out as the result of the script.
I have another page on which is one or more Spry XML Data Sets. These data sets use the previous script as the source. I know this works OK because when i 'Get Schema' in the XML dataset dialog in Dreamweaver, the schema is properly displayed. This page also has a Spry Table on it, which uses the dataset as the source. There is nothing else on the page at all.
Now, when I preview this page in Firefox, Chrome, Opera or Safari, it displays fine. However, when I preview it in IE, the table briefly flashes up then disappears. A quick look at the source of the page shows the HTML all laid out very licely, but the Spry fields still show with their placeholders (e.g. {Balance}) instead of the actual value. Im left with a totally blank page in IE.
I have tried running in compatibility mode with no effect. I found a posting on Experts Exchange (yuk!) where someone else was having the problem but this turned out to bedue to badly formed XML. I have run my XML though XMLSpy and several online validators and it checks out every time.
Any ideas? I am slowly losing the will to live....
SiHi,
I'm trying to debug the same problem...I think.The pages work in firefox on PC & MAC but stop with the {data_name} in IE on both PC & MAC.
I'm using Dreamweaver CS3 with ADDT. I've read the posts about adding the content-type to my file that ADDT created for me just before the XMLExport, so I've added that to the get_menu_1_info.php file (see lines 42-46). I've peeked into the XMLExport.class.php file to see that the Execute function is supposedly already sending the header info (see line 223). But I'm not getting the data into IE.
Any help would be appreciated!
here's where you can see the page:
https://hbblearning.org/Takv3uMYsX7cVK5eRo/newcomer_info.html
here's where I generate the xml file to be consumed:
https://www.hbblearning.org/get/get_menu_1_info.php
I've attached the files for you to see. -
Build a table based on XML data set with Spry
Hi there,
I'm new to spry technology therefore forgive any basic question of mine.
I'm trying to fill content in a table based on XML data set values but nothing is shown :-(
here is my code.... any suggestion? pls tell me where I'm wrong.
Thank you in advance
<script src="SpryAssets/xpath.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">
var uscite = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("data/Calendario 2011.xml", "csv_data_records/record", {sortOnLoad: "Date", sortOrderOnLoad: "ascending"});
uscite.setColumnType("Date", "date");
uscite.setColumnType("km", "number");
</script>
<div class="RankContainer" id="UsciteDiv" spry:region="uscite" >

Spry xml data set, accessing specific rows
Hello. I've been trying to build a website using Spry XML
Data Sets, and while I've accomplished my goals for now, I don't
think the solution I came up with is the best.
The website consists of several areas that show projects.
Each project has several fields that are to be filled with content
retrieved from the xml files, but the projects are not all exactly
alike and some have specific fields that others don't require.
All the info is available in several languages, so for now
I've created an xml file for each one. An xml file could be like
Code Part1. (Why I can't add several code snippets along the post
baffles me. I mean, I can't, right?)
This dataset, for simplicity purposes, is not dependent on
the language (Code Part2).
And then there are the content areas (Code Part3).
So as you see, each project has its own structure. This makes
using spry:repeat a not very effective method for filling in all
the content. Ideally I should be able to access each row in the
dataset through some sort of value, like id, or one of its
children's values. The ds_RowID depends on the row order, so unless
there's another way to use it, it doesn't solve my problem.
Here's what I've come up with (Code Part4).
This works (in FF3 OSX, at least), although there are some
other problems that might make it necessary to create a spry:region
(or at least use spry:repeat) for each field. Anyway, it sounds
silly and wasteful to go through every row of the dataset everytime
for each of the fields that need to be filled.
My hope is that I'm ignorant of some much better method of
achieving my goals, something more direct and elegant.
Can anyone help me out with this? Thank you very much in
advance.Hi there
You are indeed absolutely correct a spry region should have been shown, my appologise for that, the code is wrapped in a standard spry region.
That being said i have used a work around in the SQL SELECT statement of the xmlExportObj, Recordset to find the information required without having to do any IF, ELSE on the page.
Many thanks for your reply and for pointing out my mistake in how I had presented my question.
My next question is to follow seperately

Including HTML tags in Spry XML data sets
How does one add HTML tags to Spry XML data sets so that the displayed items include that markup?
For example, I might want to bold-face words within XML data items. I have tried adding the markup, but instead of seeing, for example:
This is bold face
in the Spry table, I see:
This is <b>bold</b> face
I have tried using CDATA elements in the XML to no avail.Set the data type for the column as per
var ds1 = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("myData.xml", "rows/row");
ds1.setColumnType("myColumn", "html");

Spry Tables and Xml Data Sets viewed in IE7
Has anyone ever run into a problem with Spry Tables and Xml
Data Sets viewed in IE7? Work fine in IE6 and Firefox, but get the
error "exception caught while loading feed.xml: [object Error]" in
IE 7. Any ideas?
Attached is the xml I'm using.
ThanksI came looking for the answer to this question. I could not
find an answer. Eventually I found it the answer that worked for
me, a graphic designer with not much experience in xml.
The following url provided an errata file in PDF format:
www.peachpit.com/dwcs3cib
which includes the following addendum to the incomplete
instructions in the book i was using to learn about spry:
"If Internet Explorer 7 is your primary browser, you'll nee
to take some extra steps to view spry dynamic content locally.
First, your site must be within the local server webroot; be sure
your Lessons folder is stored within the Inetpub>wwwroot folder.
Next, double-click the site name in the files panel to open the
Site Definition dialogue. Click the Testing Server category; from
the Access List choose Local/Network. Click Okay to close the Site
Definition dialogue. Now, when you preview your page with Internet
Explorer, your local Web server (localhost) serves the page as
designed."
Horray for me! Now i can move on from here and actually get
some work done! -
XML Data Set selection by attribute?
I am new to Spry and was trying to work with the XML Data Set
feature. I have an XML file with the schema listed below. I wanted
to know if it were possible to only grab the data from this XML
file if it matches a certain type? For example, grab data from
seminarType where @type="condition1"? Is this able to be done or
will I have to generate an XML file for each type? My goals was to
have one large file to grab data from.
<seminars>
<seminarType type="">
<seminarSession type="">
<seminar>
<location><![CDATA[]]></location>
<date></date>
<time></time>
<seats></seats>
<directions><![CDATA[]]></directions>
</seminar>
</seminarSession>
</seminarType>
</seminars>The seminar node contains all the information I want to grab.
I need to be able to select those nodes based off seminarType @type
and then seminarSession @type.
Example:
<seminars>
<seminarType type="type1">
<seminarSession type="session1">
<seminar>
<location><![CDATA[location]]></location>
<date>12-12-2007</date>
<time>14:00</time>
<seats>23</seats>
<directions><![CDATA[mapquest
directions]]></directions>
</seminar>
</seminarSession>
<seminarSession type="session2">
<seminar>
<location><![CDATA[location]]></location>
<date>10-08-2007</date>
<time>10:00</time>
<seats>15</seats>
<directions><![CDATA[mapquest
directions]]></directions>
</seminar>
</seminarSession>
</seminarType>
</seminars>
So I would want to grab all the session nodes where
seminarType @type="type1" and seminarSession @type="session1"
Does this help? -
Spry XML data set and dynamic post variables
Hi,
I am trying to create an XML data set that has dynamic post
variables.
Everytime something is pressed on the page a variable changes
and I then want to reload the XML data set using the new variable.
I know I can just pull in an XML with all possible variables
and filter client side but this would make it way too large.
Does anyone know what I may need to do.
I tried this:
var myVar = 0;
var dss = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet (
'../../cgi-bin/server_details.pl' , 'top' , { method: 'POST' ,
postData: sid=ajaja21&ip=127.0.0.1&cid=' . myVar ,
subPaths: [ "auth" , "plugins" , "plugins/plugin" ] , keepSorted:
"true", sortOnLoad: "plugins/plugin/order", sortOrderOnLoad:
"descending", useCache: false, loadInterval: 10000 } );
onclick="myVar=1";
But the script doesn't understand the post variables sent (it
does when I remove the . myVar part and put in a static value). I
think it isn't sending that dynamic variable with the post
variables.
Any ideas anyone?
ThanksWell I had it working when I stripped back everything and
just had the dss data set and a single onclick function, but now
that I put it back together it hash foobared again.
Here are the relevant bits of code that I've changed.
The function to change server id:
//function to run when changing the server id
function changeServer ( sid ) {
//set the url to use the current server id
dss.setURL = ( '../../cgi-bin/server_details.pl' , { method:
'POST' , postData:
'sid=7gv1m3vjvagfl7h7qeefb8iodj8evhmb&ip=127.0.0.1&cid='+sid
//force a reload of the server data
dss.loadData();
The inital load of the data set
var dss = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet (
'../../cgi-bin/server_details.pl' , 'yams' , { method: 'POST' ,
postData:
'sid=7gv1m3vjvagfl7h7qeefb8iodj8evhmb&ip=127.0.0.1&cid=0' ,
subPaths: [ "auth" , "plugins" , "plugins/plugin" ] , keepSorted:
"true", sortOnLoad: "plugins/plugin/order", sortOrderOnLoad:
"descending", useCache: false, loadInterval: 10000 } );
And the part that changes the server id
<td align="left" style="cursor:default; width:174px;"
onclick="changeServer({dsv::servers/server/@id})">{dsv::servers/server/name}</td>
I checked that the function is receiving the correct server
id and I even tried hard coding the cid variable to 2 in the change
function but it still wasn't changing on the server side.
Any ideas?
Thanks -
I have posted this over on the Spry forum but wonder if someone else has had a similar issue and found a solution as I am trying to find the answer to this quickly if possible; I want to use a tooltip with an xml data set.
I have an xml data set of events and within it there is a tooltip element. How can I get another element to act as a trigger so my tooltip appears when I mouseover the element?
My data set is displaying correctly. I'm trying to get the event title element to act as the trigger and the code that I have so far:
<div spry:region="eventsDS">
<table width="533">
<tr>
<th width="108" spry:sort="date">Date</th>
<th width="105" spry:sort="title">Title</th>
<th width="98" spry:sort="location">Location</th>
<th width="202" spry:sort="price">Price</th>
</tr>
<tr spry:repeat="eventsDS">
<td>{date}</td>
<td><a href="#tooltiptrigger">{title}</a></td>
<td>{location}</td>
<td>{price}</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<div class="tooltipContent" id="sprytooltip" spry:detailregion="eventsDS">{tooltip}</div>
<p><a href="#top">back to top</a></p>
<script type="text/javascript">
var sprytooltip = new Spry.Widget.Tooltip("sprytooltip", "#tooltiptrigger");
</script>I see & chars in your xml, try wrapping it in <[CDATA[
]> tags like this:
<description> <[CDATA[Beer (B), Beer & Wine (BW)
or Beer, Wine & Liquor (BWL)<br />
Off sale only, no consumption on the licensed
premises]]></description>
Also if check out your xml in firefox, you will see that it
shows a parsing error, most likely caused by the issue i addressed
above. -
Help with Spry Detail Regions, XML Data Sets, for IMG gallery
Hello,
I'm working on a site for a friend of mine, a photo gallery. You can see the gallery here, it's a temporary one I'm working on
http://www.emiliajozefa.com/a_index.html
Here are some important parts of my code:
//initially load these data sets. the function will be called by the links to update components later<script type="text/javascript">
var intNumPhoto = 0;
dsGallery = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("photofile.xml", "galleries/ride/photo");
dsNav = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("photofile.xml", "galleries/ride");
function updateSpryComponents(galleryDir){
alert("updating spry components for " + galleryDir);
intNumPhoto = 0;
dsGallery = Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("photofile.xml", "galleries/" + galleryDir + "/photo");
dsNav = Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("photofile.xml", "galleries/" + galleryDir);
dsGallery.setCurrentRow(intNumPhoto);
//document.getElementById('nav').innerHTML='<H1>'+enlarge.inp.value+'</H1>';
document.getElementById('nav').innerHTML=
"<span spry:detailregion = 'dsGallery'>
<a href = 'javascript:' onclick = 'if(intNumPhoto > 0){intNumPhoto -= 1}; dsGallery.setCurrentRow(intNumPhoto);'><</a> {@id} / </span>
<span spry:detailregion = 'dsNav'>{@numPhotos}
<a href = 'javascript:' onclick = 'if(intNumPhoto < ({@numPhotos} - 1)){intNumPhoto += 1; }; dsGallery.setCurrentRow(intNumPhoto);'>></a>
</span>";
</script> <--- later ----><!-- SIDEBAR NAV. When link i clicked, set DataSet to the location of the new gallery -->
<div id = "sideBarNav">
<a href = "javascript:" onclick ='updateSpryComponents('ride');">Tannersville</a>
<br />
<a href = "javascript:" onclick = "updateSpryComponents('dive');">Dive</a>
<br />
<a href = "javascript:" onclick = "updateSpryComponents('poland');">Poland</a>
<br />
<a href = "javascript:" onclick = "updateSpryComponents('alaska');">Alaska</a>
</div>
</div>
<div id = "content2">
<!-- PHOTO CONTAINER I think I somehow need to refresh this section of the code to reload new data-->
<div id = "fotoContainer" spry:detailregion="dsGallery"><img src = "photos/{@path}" width = "{@width}" height = "{@height}"/></div>
<!-- IMAGE NAVIGATION -->
<div id = "nav">
<span spry:detailregion = "dsGallery" id = "galSpan">
<a href = "javascript:" onclick = "if(intNumPhoto > 0){intNumPhoto -= 1}; dsGallery.setCurrentRow(intNumPhoto);"><</a> {@id} / </span>
<span spry:detailregion = "dsNav" id = "navSpan">{@numPhotos}
<a href = "javascript:" onclick = "if(intNumPhoto < ({@numPhotos} - 1)){intNumPhoto += 1; }; dsGallery.setCurrentRow(intNumPhoto);">></a>
</span>
</div>
You could view source there to get the code. Here is what I believe is my problem
I'm trying to automate the site so that when you click on one of the links on the left, without refreshing the page, the paths to the galleries xml file changes, and the spry Detail Regions (1 for the images, 1 for the navigation - left and right arrows). I think the problem is that once the link changes the set and calls my updateSpryComponenets() function, the detail regions need to be refreshed. I'm currently trying to solve this by dynamically rewriting the HTML thru .innterHTML, everytime I call updateSpryComponents().There may also be a problem in the Javascript function updateSpryControllers because if I put the alert after the spry calls, I never get the alert
Thanks in advance for any help!Update:
Ok, the first query on the Recent tab doesnt work for me because it wont show unless its already voted, and since these are supposed to be new blurts, that kind of breaks the whole site:
"SELECT Blurt.Id_blurt, Blurt.Name, Blurt.Location, Blurt.Blurt,Blurt.`Date`,DATE_FORMAT(Blurt.`Date`, '%l:%i %p on %M %D, %Y') as Date, ratings.rating_id, Avg(ratings.rating_value) as average_r FROM ratings Left Join Blurt On ratings.rating_id = Blurt.Id_blurt Group By Id_blurt ORDER BY Blurt.`Date` DESC";
So I replaced it with what I originally had.
"SELECT Blurt.Id_blurt, Blurt.Name, Blurt.Location, Blurt.Blurt,Blurt.`Date`,DATE_FORMAT(Blurt.`Date`, '%l:%i %p on %M %D, %Y') as Date FROM Blurt ORDER BY Blurt.`Date` DESC";
But this doesn't provide me with the initial average rating:( -
XML data and duplicating MCs for gallery
Ok big question...
how would i go about loading XML data in this format ,
<info>
<category></category>
<subcategory></subcategory>
<picture>
http://img.</picture>
</info>
<info>
<category></category>
<subcategory></subcategory>
<picture>
http://img.</picture>
</info>
Then About 20 additional Infos like that. Now the whole xml
list has the same tags. How would i go about displaying them in
flash? I wanted to use one MC and have it duplicate for each info
category and place the MCs on the stage so it looks like a gallery.
Each MC would have a picture with some info on it loaded form the
XML.
I think i would need to use the Dataset but im not even sure
how i would go about doing this.Something like this
http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/flashpro/video/gallery/
But for pictures only i don't need something that complex
also i don't need to sort anything. I was hoping to just use the
components and bind them. Also the xml feed would be updated every
couple of minutes with more content so i might need to list like 20
thumbs then make a button to seperate the loaded content. So maybe
like 20 thumbs showing then they click a page 2 button and it shows
the next 20 thumbs. That layout out is perfect though.
