XSL , XML, Chilisoft ASP

I have created a asp page that shows xml data using a xsl
transform. It works great on my IIS ( testing server) but not great
when the site go's live as my service provider uses Chilisoft ASP (
or whatever the new name is from sun).
Here is the error message!
MM_XSLTransform error:
Required object ("MSXML2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument") from
Microsoft XML Core Services (MSXML) is not installed.
Download and install the latest version from
http://msdn.microsoft.com/xml
before continuing.
Dreaweaver assumes I will be using an IIS server.
Has anyone got experience with chilisoft ASP and what I can
do to get the page showing correctly. Or a link to a page that
could help me get the correct wording and include files.
Thanks in advance

Chilisoft is aptly named - much like a bad bowl of Chili,
it'll give you
heartburn and sleepless nights! Save yourself and avoid it!
Like Nancy
said, go with a Windows server for ASP.

Using XSL-XML template to convert name value pairs into XML elements

Hi,
I have a xml document in the format:
<?xml version=”1.0”?>
<body title="Mr" firstName="Joesph" middeNames="George Harry" lastname="Smith" countrycode="GBP"/>
I need to convert this using a XSL-XML template in BI publisher to return XML in the following format, while doing some conversion, e.g. converting countrycode from GBP to UK:
<?xml version=”1.0”?>
<body>
<title>Mr</title>
<firstName>Joseph</firstName>
<middleNames>George Harry</middleNames>
<lastname>Smith</lastname>
<countrycode>UK</countrycode>
</body>
Would appreciate if anyone could point me in the correct direction.

Hi Sweta,
Why MTB??? Message Transformation bean is used to change the format of the message... If you are planning to call any XSLT or java mapping through that then you can give it a try..
>>how to get the last and first 3 special characters in the output text using MTB?
Put them in message mapping itself and write it in File

XSL-XML Templates

Hello,
My requirement is generate xml output file using BI Publisher. I think xsl-xml template will generate xml output from xml extract.
Is there a easy way of developing xsl-xml templates using BI Publisher for given XML Extract? I know we can write a xsl file manually but looking for a tool where I can drag and drop. I read this article: http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/entry/building_xsl_templates
However, In my Jdev, I do not see an option of Inregration tier to map. Any info. on this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I have changed the filter but still not showing up Integration tier. I am on JDev 11g Release2. Please let me know if I have to switch to different version of JDev or any other settings that I need to do.
Thanks again for your info.

Multiple XSL Transformations in ASP

Dreamweaver will permit multiple inserts of XSL
Transformations in PHP but when attempting the same in ASP -after
inserting and testing the first, the option: Insert >
Application Object > XSL Transformation is greyed out.
If I try pasting in the transformation code I get a server
error. Separately both XSL transformations work fine.
I need to import two RSS feeds - does anyone have a clue what
I'm doing wrong or know why this is not permitted in ASP?

Yes.
You can post the XSL transformations one after another.
Take a look at my code for inserting data into 5 different tables:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<database connection="dvddb" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
<xsql:include-request-params/>
<xsql:set-stylesheet-param name="maxdvdid">
SELECT tbl_dvd_sequence.NEXTVAL
FROM TBL_DVD
</xsql:set-stylesheet-param>
<xsql:insert-request table="TBL_DVD" transform="/dvd/xsl/admin/tbldvdtransform.xsl"/>
<xsql:insert-request table="LNK_DVD_FEATURE" transform="/dvd/xsl/admin/lnkdvdfeaturetransform.xsl"/>
<xsql:insert-request table="LNK_DVD_STARS" transform="/dvd/xsl/admin/lnkdvdstartransform.xsl"/>
<xsql:insert-request table="LNK_DVD_GENRE" transform="/dvd/xsl/admin/lnkdvdgenretransform.xsl"/>
<xsql:insert-request table="LNK_DVD_DIRECTOR" transform="/dvd/xsl/admin/lnkdvddirectortransform.xsl"/>
</database>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="/dvd/xsl/admin/createeditdeleteuserdvdconfirm.xsl"?>What I've done here is pull out the ID value from the main table that I'm updating. For these purposes lets just say the value is 10. I then use that variable in each of the XSL files to update each particular table.
The ID is a foreign key for the other 4 tables, so they all update with the correct ID. If I submit one record or 100 records, they will all share the same unique row ID in the database.
Hope that helps.

How to generate an .xsl , XML data schema when we are using BI publisher

We are using BI publisher to generate our invoices
and we are using 3 rd party to print invoices and mail invoice to customers on our invoice template
We are planning send XML payload to the 3rd party.
How can we send the 3rd party our xml schema and our style sheet (.xsl file)
This is question asked at demo at Starbucks

Print from what? If you aren't licensing ID for the sales staff that sounds like they print from PDF. I don't know anything about Easy Catalog, but I don't think there's any way to edit the PDF using it.
I think you should ask the folks at Easy Catalog about this, and maybe post the question over in ID scripting. It may be possible to write a script that will automatically update the PDF when the ID file is closed or saved, which I suspect is about as close as you are going to come to what you want.

Can we build custom code in xsl-xml

Hi, We are using one of the .xml dump which is stored as a row in the table iby_trxn_documents
We are mapping .xsl (a custom template with the above .xml tags)
We are getting the below tags in .xml (which is stored in table iby_trxn_documents) but the value is not populated in the tags,
We have build one one sequence in the database, where we need to map the incremented value of the sequence in that place.
My (xml looks like any of the below two options)
- <PaymentSequence>
<SequenceName />
<LastValue />
</PaymentSequence>
In this case i am getting output as W
- <PaymentSequence>
<SequenceName>XX_SEQ</SequenceName>
<LastValue>1</LastValue>
</PaymentSequence>
in this case i am getting output as W1, but for next run i want it as W2 etc... or is there any option we can get incremented values in <Creation_Module>
as my above value is coming null, in my output also i am getting null.
Is there a way i can get the value of sequence in my xsl template.
I am writing some thing like this in my (.xsl)
- <Creation_Module>
<xsl:value-of select="concat('W',/PaymentSequence/LastValue)" />
</Creation_Module>
For every run i want this last value to be incremented by 1
Appreciate if some one has any knowledge in this.
Thanks...

I'm not sure, but I think you have to use XSLTCSource in stead of StreamSource. Check the Xalan API docs at xml.apache.org .

XSL, XML, and Metadata Names in Web Gallery Templates

I don't know exactly how to ask the question, but what I want to do is customize the information that appears below a full-size image in an HTML web gallery. For the existing HTML gallery templates, this is the area where "caption" data is placed. You can display just about anything you want there, but you are essentially limited to a single line with no ability to format spacing. I would like to be able to show mutiple lines and format the way I want, which would be pretty easy in HTML.
I have created a custom web gallery, and I have learned where in the transformer.xslt file the caption information is placed. However, I do not know what the metadata field names are, or more importantly how to place them in HTML. Does anyone here know enough about XSL to give me hand? Any kind of direction would be greatly appreciated.

Try John Nack's blog
there was some initial info there.
Also Sean McCormack has done a lot of work on hacking the templates

Xsl/Xml - How can I print the date?

That might sound like a silly question but no matter what I do, I get an error when I try to select or copy the value of fn:current-dateTime(). All I want to do is display the date and time. Is this only available in XSLT 2.0? If so, what could I use in XSLT 1.0 that would allow me to print the date and/or time?
Thanks,
tech_isis

I just discovered that you can call java within an xsl stylesheet. What I need is to capture the "system time" when the stylesheet is processing. So here's a snippet of what I have in my stylesheet:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:date="java.util.Date" xmlns:format="java.text.SimpleDateFormat" xmlns:cal="java.util.Calendar" xmlns:java="java">
<xsl:value-of select ="java:util.Date.new()"/>
gives me a long date i.e. Tue Nov 7....
what I want is YYYYMMDDHHMMSS
I've tried formattng this use SimpleDateFormat but with no success.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
tech_isis

You don't "pass" the namespace in your transformation. Simply declare it in the root element, exactly as you declared it in your XML document.

I get the error "The uploaded file TEST_temp.xsl is invalid. The file should be in XSL format."
Where am I going wrong?
I am trying to create Excel XML spreadsheets, because the excel files created using RTF templates are very huge in size. And it is taking an unacceptable amount of time to open the file. Is there any other solution to overcome this performance issue?
Regards
Nishka

Nishka,
Looks like your XSL stylesheet is missing the XML header at the top.
So normally it would look like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet....>
</xsl:stylesheet>
as an Example a stylesheet which just outputs a field:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xdoxslt="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/oracle.apps.xdo.template.rtf.XSLTFunctions">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:text>My field:</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="MYFIELD"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Created Excel Template XSL, but XML output always open IE (not Excel)

Hello,
We are using :
- XML Publisher : 10.1.3.4.1
- Oracle Appli : 11.5.10.2 ( DB : 10.2.0.4.0)
- Oracle Reports Builder : 10.1.2.0.2
We use Reports for building the query that is used with XML Publisher.
We would like to use XML Publisher with an output Excel.
After noticing a problem with display of numeric cells when using a RTF template ( decimal places, there's a lot of threads on this), we decided to follow an advice on xlspe.com, and we created a Excel template, that we saved as a XML Spreadsheet, and using the xlspe tools, we generated the XSL file.
Then we defined everything in Oracle Applications EBS:
- data definition
- template ( XSL-XML as input, and XML as output. Note that XML is the only option)
- executable ( execution method "Oracle Reports" )
- program request : ( output format XML )
This works fine when the use a RTF template with an output Excel. (except the issue on the decimal places). in the concurrrent requests form, the output button opens Excel correctly.
When we go with a XSL template, with an output XML, the output generation works fine, but, in the concurrent requests form, the output button opens internet explorer IE instead of Excel (probably because it's a XML output file)
I hope my explanation is clear.
Did I make a mistake in the definition ?
Is there anyone who has experienced and solved this issue ?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Olivier

Hello,
After many talks, I found out how to fix this issue.
Basically, the issue is in Oracle Application where the MIME type is not defined for XML Excel type files.
By default, XML is open with the browser.
For solving the opening of XML Excel files with Excel (and not Internet Explorer IE), we had to add under the "System Admin > install > Viewer Options " a new entry for " XML - application/xnd.ms-excel - Microsoft Excel "
And also, under the System profiles, for option "Viewer: Application for XML", set the value to Microsoft Excel, and, as well, for option "Viewer: Application : Text", set the value to Browser.
This resolves the issue, and a XML Excel file generated by XML Publisher (from a XSL-XML template), is opened directly with Excel.
Thanks for your contributrion,
Olivier

Docbook.xsl processing error on XSQL XML output

Hi all,
I've got an XSQL page query which returns a docbook-schema-valid document in XML. I've written a simple xsl stylesheet to test the output and the results are as expected. I now want to use the docbook.xsl designed by Norman Walsh but I'm getting an error with some of the included templates. When I investigate the problem templates, I notice a document declaration that I've never seen before. When I exclude the offending template by commenting out the include statement, processing continues until it reaches another template which has the the same 'mixed' document declaration. Due to the way the docbook stylesheet elements and variables are structured, it is not possible to exclude all the stylesheets with the 'mixed' declaration - plus it defeats the purpose of using the docbooks framework in the first place.
The details of the various pages are:
1) XSQL page
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'UTF-8'?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="/WEB-INF/docbook/html/docbook.xsl" ?>
<page xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql" connection="jdbc/DBConnection1DS">
<xsql:query max-rows="1" null-indicator="yes" tag-case="lower">
SELECT extractValue(x.DOCBOOKS_DOC, '/book/part/title', 'xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"') "BOOK_TITLE",
extract(x.DOCBOOKS_DOC, '/book/part/chapter/sect1/sect2', 'xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"') "BOOK_CONTENT"
FROM DOCBOOKS_STORE x</xsql:query>
</page>
2) The docbook.xsl
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:d="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"
xmlns:ng="http://docbook.org/docbook-ng"
xmlns:db="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"
xmlns:exsl="http://exslt.org/common"
exclude-result-prefixes="db ng exsl d"
version='1.0'>
<xsl:output method="html"
encoding="ISO-8859-1"
indent="no"/>
<xsl:include href="../VERSION"/>
<xsl:include href="param.xsl"/>
<xsl:include href="../lib/lib.xsl"/>
<xsl:include href="../common/l10n.xsl"/>
<xsl:include href="../common/common.xsl"/>

<xsl:include href="autotoc.xsl"/>
<xsl:include href="autoidx.xsl"/>
<xsl:include href="lists.xsl"/>
<xsl:include href="callout.xsl"/>
3) When the XSQL page is run, the follwing error is encountered:
Oracle XML Developers Kit 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
XML-25011: Error processing XSLT stylesheet: /WEB-INF/docbook/html/docbook.xsl
file://var/app/oracle/appserv/product/10.1.3/OracleAS_1/j2ee/home/applications/MCMCIntroHomePage1/MCMCIntroHomePage1/WEB-INF/docbook/html/docbook.xsl: XML-22002: (Fatal Error) Error while processing include XSL file (autoidx.xsl).
4) The included stylesheet - autoidx.xsl - has the following declaration
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [
<!ENTITY % common.entities SYSTEM "../common/entities.ent">
%common.entities;
]>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:d="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"
xmlns:exslt="http://exslt.org/common"
extension-element-prefixes="exslt"
exclude-result-prefixes="exslt d"
version="1.0">
It's this 'mixed' stylesheet declaration that appears to cause the XLST processor problems.
Any suggestions as to how I might overcome this issue?
Thanks
George

Unfortunately yes. I get the following error message from JDeveloper's XML editor.
' Missing entity 'primary' '
I've even tried excluding all the xsl's with similar DTDs but then you start to get the following error messages from after running the XSQL page:
XML-25011: Error processing XSLT stylesheet: /WEB-INF/docbook/html/docbook.xsl
file://var/app/oracle/appserv/product/10.1.3/OracleAS_1/j2ee/home/applications/MCMCIntroHomePage1/MCMCIntroHomePage1/WEB-INF/docbook/html/index.xsl<Line 62, Column 50>: XML-22049: (Error) Template 'generate-index' invoked but not defined.
or
XML-25011: Error processing XSLT stylesheet: /WEB-INF/docbook/html/docbook.xsl
file://var/app/oracle/appserv/product/10.1.3/OracleAS_1/j2ee/home/applications/MCMCIntroHomePage1/MCMCIntroHomePage1/WEB-INF/docbook/html/param.xsl<Line 287, Column 36>: XML-22031: (Error) Variable not defined: 'pixels.per.inch'.
And the problem just escalates the more stylesheets you exclude. It's the cross-referencing structure of the docbooks that causes this.
I'm now wondering if there's anyone who has managed to use the standard docbook.xsl with Oracle XSQL?
