Xml to html conversion using xslt

xml contains exponential no i.e. number in scientific notation. When it is converd to HTML, we get NaN for that number. It happens in JDK 1.4 i.e. WLS8.1 with jdk 1.4 bea jrockit jvm.
It worked fine with wls7 using xalan-j_2_1_0/bin/xalan.jar
ANy solution?

Do you know of a method in the xdk that takes a well formed HTML doc and using xsd / xslt convert back to original xml spec?
Because you created (and as long as you create) the HTML from XML it will be well formed (every tag will be ended with an end-tag) and you can therefore transform it back into XML.
Most times it will not be possible to convert HTML found on the 'internet' into XML because this HTML is not well formed. For example, many people forget to end a paragraph of text within HTML with the tag.
We are evaluating using xslt to convert the XML to a form based medium for content maintenance. Wondering if once a XML document is parsed to HTML (DOM) can it be parsed back to XML for subsequent update to stored value in blob column. Specifically interested in conversion (parser) from HTML to XML
Simply can HTML (in DOM format validated against a xsd) be transformed back to XML ?

String to XML conversion using XSLT

Hi all,
I have a scenario when my source input XML is in the form of a string which needs to be transformed into an XML target fields.
I am using XSLT mapping to do that and its working but unfortunately, input XML contain xml declaration <?xml version='1.0'?>. Because of which it fails.
I need to remove this. Can any body please suggest how to do this?
Any help will be appriciated.

Simple XML to Text onversion using XSLT and Java?

Hi all!
I'm completly new to using XSLT and Java and are trying to convert a XML file into a ordinary Textfile that I am gonna import into another application.
I started up writing a ordinary XML parser in Java which interpreted the XML file, but realized later on that it was possible to do with a ordinary XSLT.
So far it is a 2-step process right now, I've tied my XSLT to the XML file and then just open the XML file up in a ordinary browser and then get the result.
I found an example (http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/excerpt/java_xslt_ch5/index.html?page=3) where u hook up a XML file and a XSL file separately and the process it, and dump it to Stdout. But do I need to hook up a XSL file like this when the XML file is tied to a XSL file internally?

Just to give you an example to show you how easy it is: http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread137587.html

How to feed data to generate a html file using XSLT?

I need to implement email content generation in the hmtl format using XSLT. The document information is stored in a xsl file and the data is generated dynmically in the application. How to feed the data to have the file?
Thanks,

Thanks for your information. I, however, already thought about using string stream instand of a XML file to pass in data. I am looking for a more intelligent method. It doesn't seem to have one so far.

This is not the complete XML file as it exceeds the 15000 characters and then I cann't post here. So I have deleted much part of it.
The hierarchy is as following: Shipment->Delivery->Order->Carton->Item.
I have created a XSLT for it which is working fine.
But when I execute my report program it gives CX_SY_XSLT_FORMAT_ERROR saying that

there are a number of java libraries that can read PDF files. Once you can read them, you can convert them to xml/html/etc.

XML to CSV routine using XSLT. Oracle bugs?

I'm trying to write some XSLT so that I can apply it to any given XML using XMLTransform to generate a flattened CSV structure. My input can be any XML document, with any number of nested levels so the structure isn't known to the XSLT. I'm fairly new to XSLT but am having problem with Oracle's version of it. I've tested on both 10gR2 and 11gR2.
CSV Rules :
Adjacent fields must be separated by a comma
Embedded commas in fields are escaped e.g. 15, Maple Street => "15, Maple Street"
Embedded quotes in fields are escaped. e.g. O'Brien => "O'Brien" or John "Jonner" McNabb => "John ""Jonner"" McNabb"
Embedded CR / LF or CRLF in fields are escaped with quotes.
Records are separated with CRLF pairs
Flattening Rules :
The text of leaf elements (elements without children) are output even if they are empty
Any element with text is output
A new line occurs whenever the nesting level changes. i.e. If an element has children.
When I run the following XML and my XSLT through Oracle I get results inconsistent with results I get when I run the XML and XSLT through online XSLT utils (including W3C's test pages).

Oracle's XSLT handling appears incorrect in several ways:
1. There is no comma delimiter separating fields and on investigation, position() is always returning 1, which is incorrect. From XSLT reference "The position function returns a number equal to the context position from the expression evaluation context." ...."the position, or index number, of the node, relative to all the selected nodes in the node list." Therefore any node in a node list should be indexable with position. I am selecting a node list *[text() or not(*)] => Any nodes with text or with no children, yet position of each node in this list is always 1.
2. My XSLT says the output is text, yet Oracle is still using HTML character escaping which is not text! " instead of " and ' instead of '. I could search and replace, but I shouldn't have to.
Can anyone explain why Oracle's XSLT differs from other XSLT processors and offer suggestions to solve these issues. Are these bugs?

Convert XML Node to String using XSLT

Hi,
Perhaps this has been discussed before. But i am looking at creating a XSLT mapping to take the entire inbound message and put it into a single node of the target.
Is there a way?

I have a target <tgt></tgt>
I need to have the target xml as
<tgt>&lessthansign;root&greaterthansign;&lessthansign;a&greaterthansign;&lessthansign;/a&greaterthansign;&lessthansign;/root&greaterthansign;</tgt>
Using the XSLT that you mentioned
I am getting the format
<tgt><root><a></a></root></tgt>
Now the consumer of this message expects the data in the first type of format
That is where i am getting stuck
Thanks and Regards
Venkat

XML to SQL conversion using OracleXML putXML

Hi,
How many rowTag values can I use when I use OracleXML putXML ? I have an XML file in the following format.
I have to use "ABC" as rowTag. What Can I do with "GRANT_ROW" ? I have a table with
R_DATE and
GRANT columns
where GRANT is an object type with elements
NAME and ATYPE.
Thanks.
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<EXCH>
<ABC num="1">
<R_DATE>5/21/2003 0:0:0</R_DATE>
<GRANT>
<GRANT_ROW num="1">
<NAME>GUNACAR</NAME>
<ATYPE>TE</ATYPE>
</GRANT_ROW>
<GRANT_ROW num="2">
<NAME>GUNACAR</NAME>
<TYPE>TE</TYPE>
</GRANT_ROW>
</GRANT>
</ABC>
</EXCH>
I get the following error when I run
java OracleXML putXML ....
oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: 'The XML element tag 'GRANT_ROW'
does not match the name of any of the columns/attributes of the
target database object.' encountered during processing ROW element 0.
Thanks....

Reg XML to Plain Conversion using B2B add on

Hi All,
This is an outbound scenario where the message is sent to AS2 receiver channel and the output is Plain file. I have added all the module parameters
and the content type as application/plain. While testing I am facing the error,
Exception caught by adapter framework: XML-Parser error occured while parsing: Cannot initialize XML to plain handlerCan not find a matching configuration for sender party "", service , receiver party ,service , namespace , action in table B2B_PLA_CTRL_IF.
Can anyone help me on this issue.
Cheers,
Neethu

Hi Neethu,
Did you import the content? See How to install the new B2B add-on , see step 5.1
You need to do this for the message type you want to exchange ((EDI, ansi X.12, ...).
Also, please do step 5.2. I guess this is not the case.
Kind regards,
Dimitri

String to XML using XSLT..

Hey folks
Am having a XML in a single string in ma request and wanna convert that into a XML. Tried that using XSLT but seems am missing out on some point...It works fine with Stylus but fails within PI
Following code am using :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:a="http://www.sdn.com/xslt">
<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
 <xsl:template match="/">
 <xsl:for-each select="//*:string">
 <xsl:value-of select="." disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
 </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The name of the element in which i get the whole XML is "string".
My request string is something liek this :
<xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><ProductDefinition><RefNo>23232323</RefNo><Description>dfdfdfdfdf</Description></ProductDefinition>
Now am trying to generate a XML using the XSL but its failing in PI...
Kindly point out where am i going wrong?

Thanks, but graphical mapping does not expose <![CDATAhttp:// ... ] to be removed. Surely this must be done with XSLT?+
Don't worry about <![CDATA ... pass your whole string in source message like this : <![CDATAhttp://<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?><ProductDefinition><RefNo>12345</RefNo><Description>Test</Description></ProductDefinition>]>
1st the graphical mapping where you use replace string will replace <?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?> and then the XSLT mapping would get a input like this : <![CDATAhttp://<ProductDefinition><RefNo>12345</RefNo><Description>Test</Description></ProductDefinition>]> which would eventually form your target structure...
I tried it myself few days back so its a sure shot method ... just try it
Cheers!!!

XML 2 HTML. Please help..

Is there any standard API / programme(already written) in Java, to convert a HTML document to XML and also XML to HTML.
Any suggestions, tips, links are appreciated. Please help.
Thanks in advance,
Xej.

Hi!
For XML to HTML conversion I use XSL transformation utilizing Xalan for Java(xml.apache.org). The other way round is not such an easy task because HTML is a little bit unpredictable with its tag usage. For example a tag as line break is ok for all browsers but it's not well formed XML - in this case it should be
If HTML is well formed in XML terms it's called XHTML and since that is a XML language you could use XSL for transforming it into another XML document.

Handling Multi hierarchial Structure using XSLT or Java Mapping in XI

Hello Experts,
I have an requirement wherein i have sender as IDOC and File as Receiver.My target File structure is multi hierarchial with parent level and many child sub level node.
I tried to generate flat structure using graphical mapping by creating an intermediate structure and then mapping it to flat structure but that seems to be very complex for my scenario as there are many sub level at target structure..
Is there any simple way of handlng these????
Thanks

Hi ,
I tried to implement your solution ..I am able to convert my idoc to XMLusing XLST but i have a question that how to convert that XMP to flat file as XI Receiver File adapter understand only 1st level of hierarchy..It doesnt understand nested level of hierarchy which is in my case...
Below is the xslt code which i have written:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
 <xsl:template match="/">
 <MT_SALES_PO_DATA_INBOUND>

Any idea how do i convert these XML to falt file USing XSLT or File Receiver adapter in XI???
Thanks

Idoc to flat file mapping using XSLT

Hi,
i am using XSLT mapping. my requirement is mapping between idoc and flat file(xml to text). as i do not want to use FCC, i have opted for xslt mapping. please let me know any article which would be helpful for this.
regards,
Meenakshi

Hi Meenakshi,
Two things:
1. Achieving this functionality using XSLT is very difficult.
2. Secondly you may not be able to find a direct document to convert IDoc-XML to flat file using XSLT in sdn. Try google.
I found one link like that may be you can get some idea from there
http://www.stylusstudio.com/SSDN/default.asp?action=9&read=6453&fid=48
Also if you have a XSLT editor like XMLSPY or stylus studio then creating your specific XSLT will b much more simpler
