0.20.2RC infinitely loops if there are tables in fo input





--- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2001-11-24 08:52 ---
Hi,

I've tracked this down: if you've got elements like this:
fo:table-column column-number=1 /,
without column-width attribute, fop goes into this loop.

If you omit the table-column element altogether,
you get a warning that fop needs a table-width (and I think
fop skips the table).

Unfortunately, the above is what is generated by
Norman Walsh's docbook stylesheets.

Oh well, we can live without tables for a while.

Re: 5.11 country and language

2001-11-24 Thread Peter B. West

Chris,

I have posted again to the xsl-editors on this.  Here is the text.


Eds,

My apologies for not having followed this up more doggedly.  Through RFC 
3066 I found my way to the ISO 639-2 3-letter codes, ISO 639-2/T 
(Terminology) and ISO 639-2/B (Bibliographic).

Fortunately, Section 2.3, Choice of language tag, of RFC 3066 includes:

  2. When a language has both an ISO 639-1 2-character code and an ISO
   639-2 3-character code, you MUST use the tag derived from the ISO
   639-1 2-character code.

This is handy, because it resolves the 639-2/T vs. 639-2/B selection 
problem.  However, it contradicts the XSL spec quoted below.
-

So, your two-letter stuff is The Right Stuff after all.

On a related issue, I was spanked by Max for CCing fop-dev on this, 
because of the risk of directing subsequent discussions of the topic on 
fop-dev into the xsl-editors list.  I see that this has happened.

Sorry Max.

Peter

In 5.11 the spec. has:

country
A string of characters conforming to an ISO 3166 country code.
language
A string of characters conforming to the ISO 639 3-letter code.

In the copies of the references that I have been recovered, ISO 639 is a 
2-letter code.  ISO 3166, on the other hand, defines both 2- and 3-letter 
country codes.  Is the spec correct here?

 
 By definition, yes... (-:
 
 ISO 639 defines both 2- and 3-letter language codes; see URL: 
 http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/IG/ert/iso639.htm .  I actually hadn't noticed 
 that the Recommendation requires the 3-letter form; that's a bit of a 
 bummer since XML itself allows the two-letter form, which means that a lot 
 of my content has things like xml:lang=en-US in it, which apparently 
 can't just be copied into FO output.

Not necessarily.  RFC 3066 covers language selectors ll-CC, and is 
referenced by MIME, HTML, and XML, so my xml:lang attributes are 
right.  But it only governs things that reference it, and since XSL 
doesn't...  XSL probably *should*, but right now, there's just an 
irritating incompatibility.

Martin Dürst pointed out on the I18N IG that the XSL language and country 
settings were mainly intended for cases where xml:lang was insufficiently 
expressive.  So the problem isn't that huge.

Re: Merging jfor into FOP - what's the plan?

 Would it be possible to have one RTFRenderer
 and then have an option use either the full FOP layout or bypass the FOP
 layout for quick RTF?. . .

I don't know about using the full FOP layout - last time I tried (beginning 
of this year) it looked hard - my understanding is that the Renderers receive 
graphical area events from FOP, whereas jfor works more at the document 
elements level.

But I don't know much about what's currently going on about the layout 
mechanism - maybe it would be easier now.
