XSL for starter

I am new to XML/XSL world. Finding it really difficult to XSL processes the XML tree. I am getting unexpected nodes to be selected using XPATH expressions. Can any one suggest any good books on XSL for starter or any web site for learing XSL. Any other tips will be great
Thanks,
Sunil

Take a look at:

Good luck.

Tool for creating xsl for .xsql

I am looking for tool that will give me the
default code for xsl base on a .xsql file as imput.
What I am looking for is a xsl designer.

If you are doing HTML you can just start with a well-formed HTML file and:
(1) Add the xsl namespace to the top element,
(2) Add in <xsl:for-each> tags where you
need to loop
(3) Add in <xsl:value-of> tags where
you want to plug-in values.
<html xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform xsl:version="1.0">
<body>
<xsl:for-each select="ROWSET/ROW">
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="ENAME"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="SAL"/></td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</body>
</html>
That's it. We don't yet offer an XSL visual editor.

Is there a way to change the hotkey for starting firefox in safe-mode?

The current default hotkey is shift. Holding it when starting firefox will start it in safe mode (true story). My super duper favorite handy windows hotkey for starting programs pinned to the task bar in windows 7 is windows_key + shift + #, and that conflicts with the firefox setting, and i always end up starting firefox in safe mode because im that lazy.

Greetings!
I'm an irssi user, and I have awesome mouse gesture addon for it, and I'm afraid I can't live without it anymore.. But it requires Shift key for opening links, therefore Firefox, as my default browser, always starts in Safe mode :(
I'm not a programmer, easiest workaround would be modifying the irssi addon, but I suck on that, too.
If there's a way to bypass Safe Mode in Firefox, or at least a way to change the Shift key to something else, that would make my miserable life a tad easier.

How to create business operation for starting workflows

How to create business operation for starting workflows from worklist?
When I call methods that implements business operation from java class everything
works fine(wlpi-ejb.jar is required), but when I call business operation from
Studio I can't use classes from wlpi-ejb.jar.

Business operation is called by WLIS. So, I include wlpi-ejb.jar into WLIS classpath.
Studio uses deployed EJB from wlpi-*.jar, I don't know why Studio doesn't see
methods from deployed EJBs when WLIS classpath contains wlpi-ejb.jar.

When studio starts, what is your classpath? If you use the included batch
file to start it, then your class path may not include this :-)

hi Guys,
I have got the same issue. This blog helped me with tcode WF_HANDCUST. I have generated the url
http://waspgh.kcc.com:8083/sap/bc/webflow/wshandler-->Click on Generate URL and click on distribution.
Immediately u will get click on Test url . Click Test url . Then It is not successful. It stopped at
http://waspgh.kcc.com:8083/sap/bc/webflow
Getting http page error. So use tcode sicf >sap>bc-->webflow service and activate it.
Then test the connection. It will be successfull.

Your main template selects MPRoot elements. You don't have any MPRoot elements in your example XML. However let's suppose that your example XML is a lie and that those Root elements are MPRoot elements in real life. Then, your xsl:for-each selects cd elements. But your Root elements don't have any cd elements as children. They do have CD elements, though. So if that part of the example wasn't a lie, try <xsl:for-each select="CD"> instead.

Xsl for-each not working in BPEL

Hi,
My input xml would contain the attribute @SourceModified at many places. In a xsl, for each occurence of that attribute I need to assign a set of values and then invoke a partnerlink.
My code is
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="//@SourceModified">
<db:InputParameters>
<db:before_text>
<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(.)"/>
</db:before_text>
<db:after_text>
<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(..)"/>
</db:after_text>
</db:InputParameters>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
Say if my input xml has the @SourceModified at 3 places, 3 different sets of values should get assigned to
<db:InputParameters>.
When I test the xsl in jdeveloper, i can see <db:InputParameters> coming 3 times. But when I deploy and test the BPEL process, only for the first occurence of @SourceModified, <db:InputParameters> is getting assigned in the transform.
Please let me know how to fix this.

hi,
I am sending multiple @SourceModified elements. Also, i could not see any <list><db:InputParameters></list>.
Only 1 set of value for <db:InputParameters> is getting assigned.
I achieved the requirement in another way.
1. counted the occurence of @SourceModified using ora:countNodes & assigned a variable count = 0
Inside a while loop, while count<ora:countNodes(@SourceModified)
1. i tempCountVar = count + 1
2. pass the tempCount variable to my xsl using passing parameters to xsd.
3. Inside the xsl, add a if condition
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="//@SourceModified">
*<xsl:if test select="position() = tempCountVar>*
<db:InputParameters>
<db:before_text>
<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(.)"/>
</db:before_text>
<db:after_text>
<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(..)"/>
</db:after_text>
</db:InputParameters>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
4. increment the count
This worked for me. I am able to get different values of <db:InputParameters>

Conditions for starting WF - BO BOR Purchase contract

Hi all,
we have SRM application rel. 5.0 (Server 5.5) and our need is to deactivate contract's approvement, about a contract just approved, whe user modify some fields in header or item data on contract.
Under dir SPRO --> SRM --> SRM Server --> Cross-application basic settings --> SAP business workflow --> Define conditions for starting workflows i have selected following values: "BOR" - "Purchase contract" and event "CHANGEVERSIONSAVED" and i tried to managed Start routine n° WS14000086 e WS14000088 with expression "Changed fields" using field CRMD_ORDERADM_H-DESCRIPTION, for example, but in this way i only got issue that approvement flow doesn't go !!!!
Did i follow right way ? miss i something ?
May you help me ?
Best regards,
Nick.

Hi,
It is either possible to use workflow (or) not to use workflow.
It is not possible to deactivate workflow in the middle of the approval process. for example if the approver changes the contract and approves, then the contract will be approved if it is single step approval.
if the approver changes the contract and then approves , then it will be send either to the next approver (or) creator depending on workflow security leve.
But i am sorry it is not possible to deactivate workflow in the middle of workflow process.

Using DAQ occurrence to wait for start trigger

Hi,
I'm trying to use digital triggers to start and stop datalogging. Every time start trigger appears, new file is created and data is acquired to file until stop trigger occurs. Now I'm using set DAQ occurrence and wait for occurrence functions to wait for start trigger before creating a new file. The problem is that after first stop trigger this occurrence method doesn't work. I believe it's because AI is not cleared and configured before calling DAQ occurrence again. Number of scans acquired is not zero, if I don't clear and configure AI again? Am I right?
Do I have to clear and init AI everytime before occurrence config or is there a better way to make program wait for start trigger?
Thanks in advance,
Jakke

Hi Matt99eo,
Have you configured your device for triggering? Although you have not mentioned your device specifically, the M series user manual provides a great explanation of digital triggering. Using the DAQ Assistant, this can be configured from the triggering tab. Hopefully this helps!

The Flex Quickstarts will be a place for starters, if you want to know
about Flex/CF integration the first to know would be some basics of CF.

Why is it recommended to have a separate PeopleSoft ID for starting Application Server in PeopleSoft

HI,
Why is it recommended to have a separate PeopleSoft ID for starting Application Server in PeopleSoft

Hello:
You can put the JS function into the HTML Header section of the Page defintion.
<script>
function doDelete(id) {
$x('P14_DEL_ID').value=id;
doSubmit('DELETE');
</script>Define a new page process whose process point is 'On Submit: After Computations and Validations'. For the Process Source specify
Delete from <table> where key_column=:p14_del_id;Under Conditional Processing select 'Request=Expression 1'. For Expression 1 specify 'DELETE'
Hope this helps.

Hi Jocelyn,
Thanks for that reply.
I tried the transactions SICF and WF_HANDCUST.
1. In SICF under sap>bc>webflow-->wshandler when i double click on wshandler it shows that the service is active. But when i right click on the same and try to TEST it, i get an error
<b>Error in Web service execution
The launch handler was called with an incomplete parameter list </b>
I am not sure what this error means.
The configurations available in this service are as follows,
ICF path --> /default_host/sap/bc/webflow/

Decription --> English
Logon Procedure --> Standard
Security Requirements --> Standard
Basic Authentication --> Standard R/3 user
Anonymous logon data

I am not clear what id and password should be maintained here. Can you please help us on this.
2. When i try to generate the URL in WF_HANDCUST and test them i get a success message.
<b>Handler test

The ones of BASEMAP are kept unchanged but the ones of MAP1 are having a new attribute value for id.
