Have you installed the BeanShell plug-in? If you did that, it should be listed by the dialog box displayed by Help|Plug-ins. Otherwise, download the plug-in from http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/plugins.shtml and install it. > Besides, I wonder how to write such a script so that an action is > performed when opening and antother action is done on closing.

Find attached to this document, tdochook.bsh, a skeleton of such script. Register it by adding documenthook.xxe somewhere XXE find its configurations, for example, on Unix, in ~/.xxe2/config/. A document hook can also be document type specific, in which case, add it to the configuration file of the corresponding document type. Use the Java API http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/docs/api/com/xmlmind/xmleditapp/dochook/DocumentHook.html and the developer's guide http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/docs/dev/ar01s06.html to learn how to write a document hook. (The developer's documentation can be freely downloaded from http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/download.shtml.) Our advice is to write everything in Java rather than in a script language, that's why use of scripting in XXE is not promoted at all. For example, BeanShell, while pretty smart, is very, very, very slow and is harder to debug than Java. -------------- next part -------------- import java.net.URL; import com.xmlmind.xmledit.doc.Document; import com.xmlmind.xmledit.doctype.Diagnostic; void creatingDocument(Object self, boolean copy, URL url) { System.err.println("creatingDocument '" + url + (copy?
