XSL doesn't output markup in XML file

Hi all.
I'm developing a webapp that will allow me to post news about the product I manage.
This is a small part of the portal I'm building for the product.
So far I've managed to implement a very nice pattern that implements a clear separation between data, logic and presentation using xslt transformations, EJB's to access database data, servlets and some util classes to do the cleaver stuff.
With the news webapp I want to be able to post some news in a formatted manner.
My idea was to use html tags along the news content everytime I felt I should highlight something, or indicate a web link, etc.
Now I realize that this is not so simple as I supposed it would be.
I ran some simple tests to this idea and noticed that the parser 'eats' html tags I've put in the xml file.
For example, with a xml file similar to this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<contacts>
<contact>
<name><b>Pedro Gaspar</b></name>
...and a xsl file containing, somewhere:
<xsl:value-of select="contacts/contact/name"/>I get the output "Pedro Gaspar" in the browser.
If I escape the markup characters, I get them as text in the browser so the markup won't work either.
I have a solution for this and that's having the servlet produce the html output itself through out.println(...) lines but I'd rather not go that way and mantain a single architecture in the entire portal.
I also tried to use '[' and ']' instead of real markup and use the XPath function translate(str,"[]","<>").Didn't work either.
I thought that was the way this posting funcionality at java.sun.com worked but I guess not.
Right now I feel I would rather prefer to have plain text in my posted news than having them in a more beautiful format but through html embedded in servlets.
If someone knows how can one pass html tags to the bowser using xslt transformations, please advice.
Thanks!

<xsl:value-of select="x"/> produces a string that consists of all text nodes in x.
<xsl:copy-of select="x"/> produces an exact copy of x.

XML publisher report not generating output for huge XML files

Changed Depreciation Projections Report output type to XML.
Defined a Data Definition and a new Data Template (RTF) for this report.
Ran the Depreciation Projection Report to generate the XML output.
Ran the XML Report Publisher report to generate teh PDF/Excel output of the above report.
Output generated for smaller XML files. When XML size is big, the program is running for hours without generating the output.
Teh RTF template is basically a matrix report in which the number of columns in the report is based on the number of periods the report is run for.
The same is not working in the Desktop version also. The system is hanging when i try to view the preview pdf.
The XML file size is approximately 33 MB.
Please let me know if there is any way we can increase the memory size to see the output.
Thanks,

How to change the output directory of .xml files

Hi,
There are lots of .xml files generated under
$ORACLE_AS_HOME/j2ee/home/applications/xmlpserver/xmlpserver/xml.
(ex:/usb/bipub3/oracle/oc4j_bi/j2ee/home/applications/xmlpserver/xmlpserver/xml).
I found these files are generated in the following operation;
1.Log in BI Publisher.
2.Select the Schedules tab.
I think they are kind of temp files so we will be able to delete them.
But I'd like to know how to change the output directory.
Can we change the above directory to other path?
Regards.

Why? As that may invalidate support since you configure/alter the deployment.
The location is specified in oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\xmlpserver\xmlpserver.war, so you could go into the war file and alter it.

How do I create individual xml files from the parsed data output of a xml file?

I have written a program (DOM Parser) that parses data from a XMl File. I would like to create an individual file with the corresponding name for each set of data parsed from the xml document. If the parsed output is Single, Double, Triple, I would like to create an individual xml file (Single.xml, Double.xml, Triple.xml)with those corresponding names. How do I create the xml files and give each file the name of my parsed data output? Thanks in advance for your help.

None of the above works fine after importing xml to Indesign document/templete, it is not renderting equivalent out instead it is showing the same text inside tags in the Indesign document.
I have lot of content in our database, I will export to XML, import to Indesign, Indesign should render required output like what we see in the browser and export the output to printed format.
Import formated XML to indesign --> Export to Quality Print Format
Can any one guide me and let me know whether it is posible to do with Indesign, if so let me know in case if I am missing anything in importing xml and get required output.
Thanks in advance. Waiting for reply ASAP.

Possibly your expectations are too high. ... Scratch that "possibly".
XML, in general, cannot be "rendered". It's just an abstract data format. Compare it to common markup such as *asterisks* to indicate emphasized words -- e-mail clients will show this text in bold, but InDesign, and the vast majority of other software, does not.
To "render" XML, HTML, MathML, or LaTeX -- you seem to freely mix these *very* different markup formats, unaware of the fact that they are vastly different from each other! -- in the format you "expect", you need to apply the appropriate software to each of the original data files. None of these markup languages are supported natively by InDesign.

Hi Ritehere,
I know this is simple but am beginner in Powershell Script so I was looking for logic to go through however the output you provided is not what i am looking for and your script is too complicated, as under timestamp i wanted display value and correspoding
to display value the OID name and then name value correspoding to that OID. May be u got it wrong.
Thanks anyways.

Unwanted / Special Characters in XML File Output

Hello Seniors,
I am downloading an XML File which has some code from include's. The XML file is well formatted and the output is fine when I downloaded programs. But this include is from user exits and the code has some commented lines in it also with a blank line in between. Now the problem is that I am getting a "VT" in the XML file which is an unwanted character where there is a blank line in the include "ZXRSAU01". Other than this include, all other includes are downloaded fine.
Here is the code from the include "ZXRSAU01":
     select single * from knvv where kunnr = l_s_icctrcst-kunnr
                                and vkorg = l_s_icctrcst-vkorg
                                and vtweg = l_s_icctrcst-vtweg
                                and spart = l_s_icctrcst-spart.
Here is the output in the XML File:
     select single * from knvv where kunnr = l_s_icctrcst-kunnr
                                and vkorg = l_s_icctrcst-vkorg VT
                                and vtweg = l_s_icctrcst-vtweg
                                and spart = l_s_icctrcst-spart.
Please give me a solutions for this. Each of your answers are very important and will addressed with the best deserved.
Thanks and regards,
Chaitanya.

Hello Madhan,
Firstly, Thank You for the reply. We cannot remove the space in that include because the system is not the original system. Please let me inform you that this is a 4.6C system. We have used CDATA to get the code as it is onto the XML file. I observed that, firstly, the character "#" has come into the internal table with the read report itself. In the debug I saw it to be "0B" in the binary format, but in the downloaded XML file output, it is displayed as "VT". Please let me know how to get rid of this special/unwanted character.
Thanks and regards,
Chaitanya.

Convert Data to XML File

Hi all
I want a sample procedure in which i would to like to fetch data and save the output to a XML File.
Someone please help me in giving me the sample procedure.

see this link, may be it will help

Well that shows you how to extract data on the database as XML, but it doesn't show how to output it to a file.
I'll give a hint. If you have your data as an XMLTYPE you can convert it via CLOB to and XMLDOMDocument type (as in the DBMS_XMLDOM package). Once you have an XMLDOMDocument you can use one of the DBMS_XMLDOM procedures to write out the XML to a file...
DBMS_XMLDOM.WRITETOFILE(
doc IN DOMDOCUMENT,
filename IN VARCHAR2);

Modifying XML files with JDOM

Hi:
I've been trying to get up to speed with JDOM, and while it seems pretty intuitive, I've been having a problem w/ modifying XML documents.
Namely, once I get a Document object from a (skeleton) XML file, do changes made to the Document object through, say, addContent() propagate to the original file? My gut feeling is no, although this was certainly what I had expected initially.
Here's a code fragment of what I had tried to do to populate a barebones XML file:
               Document doc = builder.build(output);
          // add 100 elements, all the same
          for (int count = 0; count < 100; count++)
               Element curr = new Element("book");
               // create child nodes for book
               Element title = new Element("title");
               title.addContent("Book " + (count + 1));
               Element author = new Element("author");
               author.addContent("Author " + (count + 1));
               Element price = new Element("price");
               price.addContent("Price " + (count + 1));
               curr.addContent(title);
               curr.addContent(author);
               curr.addContent(price);
               doc.getRootElement().addContent( curr );
          }

Mikael,
This sounds like one of the many quirks (perhaps bugs) related to how FrameMaker handles non-FM files in books. The current book model doesn't play well with XML files as chapters and this seems like yet another problem. Apparently, if an xref does not target another .fm file in the book, Frame assumes that the target file is not in the book and therefore will not be in the book PDF.
There have been discussions here about this in the past. The solution that I use is to run an API client before publishing that converts all XML files to .fm files, and redirect all xrefs appropriately. Then, book features work as expected and PDFs come out as normal. This is not feasible, however, without the automation from the API client.
There may be some who would say that the best approach is to use XML and books the way that the designers did account for... that is, the whole book becomes an XML document with entity references to the separate chapters. In my work, though, this model was not appropriate... rather, I needed a binary FM book to act like a book, except with XML files as chapters. So, I think I understand your situation.
Is API programming or FrameScript an option for you? I think it may be the only way to get what you are looking for.

Help on converting xml file to text file

Hi,
I have xml file and i want to convert to text file ...
How do i write a perticular tag in perticular line by the time converting xml to text file using xsl ...
Ex:
input XML file:
<NAME> venkat </NAME>
<ADDRESS>
5800 Lander Brook Drive
</ADDRESS>
output ASCII File:
245 venkat
300 5800 Lander Brook Drive
In this example TAG <NAME> should write into line 245 and
TAG <ADDRESS> should write into line 300 etc...
here is the xsl file to above xml file ..
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" >
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:value-of select="Name"/>
<xsl:value-of select="Address"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
how do i write Name value in line number 245 in the text file , similarlly how do i write Address value in line number 300 in the text file ...
How do i specify the value has to go to a perticular line ... i know name has to goto some line number, address to some line number etc ,,,
Any help on this please .....

sorry read: XSL.
you will have to create your own tool to generate your text file in order to truly ensure the position of your data in the text file.

Preserving Line and Tab Spaces in XML File

Hi all,
Question is in detail
I want to preserve spaces in my XML Document.
XML File is as follows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<desc xml:space = "prserved">          AAA

Customer Id: [ customer_id ]
Customer Id: [ customer_id ]
Customer Id: [ customer_id ]

Media files prevent Flash from fully loading external XML file

Im trying to debug a flash widget we created, and it loads
fine on the 20 odd computers we tested on EXCEPT for one computer
where, the application doesn't load an external XML file that calls
for 3 small mp3 files and a FLV file to load as well.
In a debugger, we noticed that when it tried to load these
mp3 files it was getting a Forbidden access message. The FLV just
prevents the FLV player from showing up at all (not even the skin).
Can anyone figure out why, that it would work over all the
other computers and NOT the one? On that person's computer, we
tried it in IE, Firefox, even Chrome and the application doesn't
load. We even cleared the cache, did a hard refresh and still
nothing.
However, the other computers work just fine.
ALL the computers have the latest Flash software installed.
What could cause this problem?

Actually what worked was removing 'xmldoc' from the php script. So $data =$GLOBALS["HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA"]; instead of $data = xmldoc($GLOBALS["HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA"]);
Couldn't find anything about 'xmldoc'. Is it used for anything in php?
Anyway, the loading error went away, but then I got into problems with getting the return echoed values back. The textfield stayed empty even when saving the data.txt file worked.
I then placed the <stuff> tags between <root> tags and then flash got the sentences between the <stuff> tags back. Why does Flash need the returned xml output to be between <root> tags for it to see the content between the <stuff> tags? So why do I need to use echo("<root><stuff>Server unable to create file.</stuff></root>"); instead of cho("<stuff>Server unable to create file.</stuff>");?
