Advanced tables
Hello group, I try to do the following: I want to label my file folders. My xml looks like this: University WBS XML XSL 2003 Insurance Barmenia LVM HUK ADAC 2003 ... I have A4 sized paper. I have 1 to n folders. I would like to have a table that creates 1 to n columns. Then it should have 3 rows. In the first row - the main topic. The second row - subtopic. The last row - year. The problem that I (assume to) have, is that I only can use the only once. On the one hand I have to tell that there are 1 to n On the other hand I have the 3 rows in 1 to n columns (example bottom) I haven't figure out how to put 1 to n columns to a page and still display the content of top, middle, bottom , so here is a snip that each folder will have his own table. I hope you understand what I am trying to do! Thanks for any hints. Example folder2fo.xsl: - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Pass xsl:param value to FOP through command line
Clay Leeds wrote: That's what I'm trying to do by passing the PARAM in the COMMAND line. It may just be that I don't completely understand the process. I have a system which outputs an XML file, and if a setting exists, will print that file using XSL:FO. I have a 2nd page in the XSL:FO that is static (it's a government form). Understood. If the printer can handle DUPLEX (print on front & back) then I output the 2nd page. If it does not, then they must purchase pre-printed paper with the government disclaimer stuff on the back. You want to keep the information in a file or should it be done "on the fly"? I'd like to have my .BAT/.sh script which runs FOP pass a parameter to FOP so it "knows" whether or not to print the 2nd page. ok, on the fly. But your .bat is sending the files, which should be printed (front/rear // front). So why not keep a record whether it is front/rear or front. Then "normal" if bla =true then bothPages else frontPage. I guess I could set up the system to always output both pages, but then only "print" ODD pages, but I have no guarantee that I'll have that much control over the environment. I do, however have control over the .BAT/.sh script So I would store the information in that script. Then you need two fop-Stylesheets. 1) with the rear page 2) without Thanks for your help!

Re: Converting FOP to HTML
Hi Vladimir, you can c'n paste from PDF! e.g. with Acrobat Reader 5.0 you can prevent c'n paste or allow it. you can set a password and so on. I am not sure whether you can tell fop to pass that properties? But I can c'n past my pdf! King regards Thorsten Vladimir Sneblic wrote: Thanks everyone for your feedback. The reason I wanted to create HTML documents as well is simply because PDF documents don't allow you to copy/paste parts of them.

Re: [Wyonacms-users] XOpus
This is an open appeal to the XML Open Source Community. Please support this appeal to keep an Open Source Project alive! How can we keep the following project Open Source? Please post this message to people who may help! "Xopus is a browser based in-place wysiwyg XML editor. Xopus allows users to edit their XML data in an intuitive word processor alike way." http://xopus.org/index.jsp The following notice is on the above mentioned page. (my comments) are in the brackets. Hello groups, hello Laurens van den Oever, Sjoerd Visscher, Lon Boonen! Here is the notice of Q42: Hi all, Today we made a decision concerning the Open Source future of Xopus. Originally, the Open Source project was intended to be our marketing. We hoped for huge exposure and many new projects and funding. (How long are you open source now? Since August/September? I think it will take a while to spread the word. I talked to many people that are thinking to use Xopus and support the project, but it takes some time to really get in to it.) And of course to change the world for the better. (Would be if you stay Open Source! Your Editor is one good piece of work! I really like it! If we spread the word into the cocoon community I think you will get more support and projects) We indeed got a lot of positive feedback, a few contributions (thanks guys!), but no projects nor funding. The only serious leads and paying customers so far haven't found us through the Open Source community. Most of them don't like the Open Source idea all together. (That's to bad. But part of the idea is as well that the user will develop the software because the know best want they want. I think your client will understand that they will profite of the work of the Open Source Community. They have ideas, spirit and a powerful community.) Building the ideal XML editor, our goal, turned out to be somewhat more ambitious than we estimated. We have made a huge investment building this product and can't continue to deliver free software without revenues. (If some organisation listen: There is a Xopus Version for sale that have this * Advanced features: o Complex pipeline resolving o Richtext editors o Table editing o Lookup editors o Animations o Fast-pace editing (allows fast-keyboard-typing while xml nodes are created automatically according to the schema) o Date editors o Integer editors o Enumeration editors) Therefore we have been forced to the conclusion that we will not release new Xopus versions to the Open Source community as long as we don't find serious paid projects or funding. (The product is really awesome try it out @ http://xopus.org/index.jsp?menu=demo) We hope we will be able to return to the Open Source development soon. Thanks for your support and "we apologize for the inconvenience" (THHGTTG IV), **** What can we do?
