Thanks. Anyhow, I've added both xml.xsd official URLs  to the main XML 
catalog of XMLmind XML Editor. Which means, that from next version 
(3.8.1, released in a couple of days), it  should work fine out of the box.

   <!-- Local copy of xml.xsd ===================================== -->

   <uri name="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd"
        uri="common/xsd/xml.xsd"/>

   <uri name="http://www.w3.org/2001/03/xml.xsd"
        uri="common/xsd/xml.xsd"/>

I'm really sorry but even after trying to reproduce what you have 
described, I didn't manage to reproduce the problem.

All my tests were conducted on a DocBook 5 document.

Re: Errors opening an IMS Content Package file

Fine, thank you. I am trying now with QTI
(Question and Test Interoperability) but
it seems much more complex. I'll let you
know.

RE: RE: Redraw command actually reverts to saved version?

Hm. I tried a little test here and I also cannot reproduce the problem.  Maybe there was another factor I
didn't notice.

Sorry for the false alarm.

Thanks for the excellent product BTW.

How do you set the background color for a property in a dita properties list.

Hi

 

I have text that I want to flag for filtering in dita, and I want to be able to see that visually. I used

/* ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Shade programmer audience

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- */

 

<at> media XMLmind-XML-Editor {

    *[audience="programmer"] {

        background-color: #FFFEDD;

    }

}

 

Here’s a sample of the XML: (this is for a DITA reference topic).

<properties>

      <property>

        <proptype audience="programmer"><xref

        href="../../DataDictionary/DELIVERTO.dita">DELIVERTO</xref></proptype>

 

        <propvalue><uicontrol>Pickup By</uicontrol></propvalue>

 

        <propdesc>Displays the name of the person picking up the

        order.</propdesc>

      </property>

</properties>

 

To create the shading. This works great for text or proptype, propvalue, propdesc. However, for the parent element, property, it doesn’t work. So I can shade text or one cell, but not a whole row.

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

Tyrin

Re: Errors opening an IMS Content Package file

Hello Hussein

I am trying to change the image directory
path when generating HTML with docbook.xsl
I am unable to find where this directory
is configured to "resources", when I
use parameter img.src.path set to
"images" then the images directory
becomes "imagesresources".

Regards

RE: relationship between dtd and base xml file

Thanks! I'll carefully try out these helpful suggestions, and if need be
take up the offer of a review. Good support for a good product!

* The template document needs to be valid. It is validated against the
schema referenced by the document if any, or the schema specified in the
configuration file otherwise.

* Make sure that your template document is really detected as being
associated to your configuration.

To check this, move your mouse over the Tab of the document view
(normally showing Untitled.xml). After 1 second, the tooltip shows
"/xxx/Untitled.xml : Name of the configuration".

* The DTD and W3C schema are persistently cached in fast loading,
binary, form. May be the schema cache has not detected that you have
modified your DTD. In such case, the template document is validated
against the old, cached, version of the DTD.

Please, use Options|Preferences, "Advanced|Schema Cache section", and
press "Clear cache". Or better, uncheck "Enable cache" while you are
developing your configuration.

More info. in: 
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/com.xmlmind.xmleditap
p.dialog.PreferencesEditorDialog.html#d0e9399

* If all this fails, do not hesitate to send me your prototype
configuration. I'll very quickly tell you what's wrong (probably
something very simple).

Nothing at all.

The property element is styled using "display:table-row;". In XMLmind 
XML Editor, a table row is just a logical container not directly 
represented by any gadget on screen. This means that specifying a 
background-color for it is useless...unless you force its child elements 
to inherit this background-color.

We've made small changes in the DITA CSS of next release (3.8.1, 
released today) to make this work.

One of these small changes is:

proptypehd,
propvaluehd,
propdeschd,
proptype,
propvalue,
propdesc {
     display: table-cell;
     margin-left: 0;
     border: 1 solid #F0D0FF;
     padding: 2px;
     background-color: inherit; /*NEW in 3.8.1*/
}

The menu items contained in "Convert Document" have not been designed 
for experts like you but for average users who are not likely to change 
``system parameters'' like "img.src.path" (but they may want to change 
parameters such as "profile.condition" or "paper.type" using 
"Options|Customize Configuration").

That's why graphics files are automatically copied/converted to a 
(automatically created) resources/ subdirectory  when generating HTML.

If you want XXE to behave differently, I'm affraid you'll have to 
redefine a couple of process commands found in 
XXE_install_dir/addon/config/docbook/xslMenu.incl.

Process command docb.convertStep1:
---
<command name="docb.convertStep1">
   <process>
     <mkdir dir="resources" />
     <mkdir dir="raw" />

     <copyDocument to="__doc.xml">
       <resources match="(https|http|ftp)://.*" />

       <!-- Support for textdata/ <at> fileref.
            add your favorite text file extensions here: -->
       <resources
         match=".+\.(txt|text|htm|html|xml|h|c|cpp|java|js|tcl|py|pl|rb)"
         copyTo="." />

       <resources match=".+\.(png|jpg|jpeg|gif)"
                  copyTo="resources" />
       <resources match="(?:.+/)?(.+)\.(\w+)"
                  copyTo="raw" referenceAs="resources/$1.png" />
       <resources match=".+"
                  copyTo="resources" />
     </copyDocument>

     <convertImage from="raw" to="resources" format="png" />

     <mkdir dir="images/callouts" />
     <copyProcessResources resources="xsl/images/draft.png"
                           to="images" />
     <copyProcessResources 
resources=" <at> xsl/images/callouts/png_callouts.list"
                           to="images/callouts" />
   </process>
</command>
---

Notice configuration elements such as:
---
       <resources match="(?:.+/)?(.+)\.(\w+)"
                  copyTo="raw" referenceAs="resources/$1.png" />

Re: Errors opening an IMS Content Package file

I noticed about this command but the problem
is not about copying files in "resources" folder,
that is ok, what I am trying to change is the
href attribute of img elements in the generated
HTML by means of docbook.xsl. ¿Is this command
affecting this inside XXE?
