--> Despite the fact that it works with Cadaver and Windows Web Folders, the WebDAV server you use is not conforming to this very basic point of the specification: http://www.webdav.org/specs/rfc2518.html#METHOD_PROPFIND --- 8.1 PROPFIND The PROPFIND method retrieves properties defined on the resource identified by the Request-URI, if the resource does not have any internal members, or on the resource identified by the Request-URI and potentially its member resources, if the resource is a collection that has internal member URIs. --- In a nutshell, the list returned by your WebDAV server is missing the item concerning the Collection which is the subject of the PROPFIND request ("http://localhost:9000/workspaces/W1/classifications/"; in the above example). We strongly urge you to report this bug to the developers of your WebDAV server. (By the way, which is this WebDAV server?) --> It worked with XXE v4.9.1 because the old WebDAV virtual drive plug-in had a *workaround* for this bug. We have rewritten the WebDAV virtual drive plug-in in order to better support the new "Open Folder" feature found in XXE v5. We have omitted to port the workaround, thinking that after all these years, WebDAV servers could not possibly have such trivial bug. We were wrong. We'll port the workaround today[*] and point you to the new WebDAV virtual drive plug-in (v2.1.5). Because we have no way to test this workaround, please be kind enough to confirm that it actually solves your problem. After you do that, we'll officially publish the new plug-in on our Web sites, making it available to all users. Thank you in advance. --- [*] This is probably wrong as this encourages the developers of WebDAV servers not to fix their bugs. -- XMLmind XML Editor Support List [email protected] http://www.xmlmind.com/mailman/listinfo/xmleditor-support
