The real documentation of XXE is found here: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/documentation.shtml The online help is just the reference of menus, toolbars and dialog boxes. How to create a configuration for XXE (including the XML catalog trick) is explained here: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/configure.html. I've already done that for you (see below) but if you are curious you can look at what I've done. > I'm guessing that the namespace dialog plays in here some how, but I'm > still confused about how all the parts fit together. I've created a simple configuration for OSIS Core. It works fine except that it lacks a CSS style sheet. Therefore, when you'll open an OSIS Core document you'll see the tree view. I just hope this will give you a quick start. This configuration is available from this download area: --- http://www.pixware.fr/_download/KurtAndrews/osis_core_config.zip 14094bytes, Tue Apr 11 10:57:43 AM CEST 2006 http://www.pixware.fr/_download/KurtAndrews/osis_core_config.xxe_addon 588bytes, Tue Apr 11 11:03:22 AM CEST 2006 --- * osis_core_config.zip is contains the configuration * osis_core_config.xxe_addon is a pointer to the configuration for use by XXE's download manager. There are *2* ways to install it. [1] Manually. Download the .zip with your Web browser and unzip it in <XXE_user_preferences_directory>/addon/ (on Windows, it is something like C:\Documents and Settings\Kurt\Application Data\XMLmind\XMLEditor\addon\). This creates a directory called "osis_core_config" which contains the configuration. That is "dir /W C:\Documents and Settings\Kurt\Application Data\XMLmind\XMLEditor\addon\osis_core_config" should list something like: --- catalog.xml osisCore.2.1.xsd osis_core_config.xxe_addon osisCore.xxe sample.xml text.xml xml.xsd --- [2] OR Using "Options|Install Add-ons". Before that you need to specify to the add-on manager that configurations are also found in http://www.pixware.fr/_download/KurtAndrews/. For that: [a] Use Options|Options. Select "Install add-ons" section. [b] Use the "Add..." button which is at the left of the "Download add-ons from these servers" list. [c] Replace what is suggested by: http://www.pixware.fr/_download/KurtAndrews/osis_core_config.xxe_addon [d] Click OK. [e] Now you can use Options|Install Add-ons. "A configuration for OSIS Core" should be listed by the dialog box. [f] Click on the corresponding "Install" toggle. Click OK and restart XXE as asked. After that, open one of your OSIS Core documents or use "File|New" "OSIS Core|Text" to create a new "Text". > > P.S. is there a preferred location where I should keep local xsd > files.
