Dear all,
I would like to use the combination feature from an XML source.
My XML environment file includes the following definitions:
\defineXMLenvironment[combination]
{\expanded{\startcombination[\XMLpar{combination}{layout}{2}*\XMLpar{combination}{rows}{1}]}}
{\stopcombination}
\defineXMLpickup[combinationentry]
{\defineXMLpush[combinationitem]\defineXMLpush[combinationcaption]}
{\expanded{\bgroup\XMLpop{combinationitem}\egroup\bgroup\XMLpop{combinationcaption}\egroup}}
The XML source that I use looks like this:
<combination columns="2" rows="1">
<combinationentry>
<combinationitem>Image A</combinationitem>
<combinationcaption>Caption for image A</combinationcaption>
</combinationentry>
<combinationentry>
<combinationitem>Image B</combinationitem>
<combinationcaption>Caption for image B</combinationcaption>
</combinationentry>
</combination>
ah, real trickery is needed here:
\defineXMLenvironment [combination] [columns=2,rows=1]
{\scratchtoks\emptytoks
\expanded{\appendtoks \noexpand \startcombination
[\XMLop{columns}*\XMLop{rows}]}\to \scratchtoks}
{\appendtoks \stopcombination \to \scratchtoks
\the\scratchtoks}
\defineXMLprocess[combinationentry]
\defineXMLpickup [combinationitem]
{\appendtoks\bgroup}{\egroup\to\scratchtoks}
\defineXMLpickup [combinationcaption]
{\appendtoks\bgroup}{\egroup\to\scratchtoks}
I can add such thing to x-contml.tex if needed
Hans
