Re: Cocoon Portal - User Roles

[Richard Reyes]

Hi Matthew,
 
If I understand it right, I have to change 
the sunrise-newrole.xml into something that the sql transformer would 
understand and remove the cinclude and writesource transformer on the 
pipeline?
 
In this case...
 
Whats the advantage of using transformer than an 
action?
 
In the end of this map:match pattern it is 
returning an xml like this...
 
 xml 
version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

If I'd use an action, do I have to serialized these 
kinds of xml?
 
And can you tell me where the sunrise-newrole 
resource is being called and returned to?
 
Thanks again.

  You

  the information contained in there. Because sunrise-newrole.xml also flows

  the browser. It is serialized to xml because it is being used inside the 
  portal (in this case).
   
  If 
  you wanted to write this to a database you would need to change the 
  sunrise-newrole.xml and use the sqltransformer instead of cinclude and 
  write-source. In all this should take you around 5 minutes or less to adapt.

Hi Matthew / Guys,
 
Just want to confirm some 
things
 
Since the the "new role" function in the portal 
sample is mapped to  uri, it is 
using this sitemap snippet right?
 
        
    
    
    
    
    
    

and the 
documentations says that 
 
The new-role resource creates a new role in the system. 
It gets the parameters "type" with the value "role" and "role" with the new 
rolename.  
 
Where is the "type" and "role" 
parameter?
and why does it have to serialized in an xml 
type in the end?
 
Also, for the sunrise-newrole 
resource, the only thing this pipeline does is save a new role in the 
xml file ( sunrise-roles.xml )? whose responsible for displaying the 
next page after saving the new role?
 
And since this sitemap snippet is called inside 
a map:pipeline internal only clause I think it is being called by the portal 
generator or action. 
 
If in case I'd used custom actions over this 
pipeline, How would I know the parameters 
that 
have been passed and are being expected by the 
caller of this pipeline?
 
Thanks a lot
Richard

Re: XMLForm and dates

[Ivelin Ivanov]

Try the following:

Use a Date property with its own getter and setter for the database access.
Implement an extra property named dateString.
Then write the getter of the property to convert the Date object into String
when invoked.
Also write a setter to convert a string to a date. The Java DateFormat class
can help.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/text/DateFormat.html


In your XMLForm documents refer to the dateString property, instead of the
date property.
In your Java code, use the date property.


Hope this helps.

Subject: XMLForm and dates


Hello,

I use XMLForm and I want to put the today date in a form.
The problem is that the today date has to be a String because the XMLForm
simply display the value of the Bean class attribute. If this value is not a
String, the date can't be read!
But I want to store the today date in a Date format (because I have a
timestamp format in my database).

How to store the date in a Date type and display it like a String?
How to do this??

Thank you

Hmm, what exactly do you mean? You request an XML page, but you don't 
see anything? Mozilla has no built-in stylesheet by default like IE. But 
you can see the source of the document (Ctrl + u).

Back to aggragation: I see I can use it like a 'multiple generator' now 
I should read the docs/references. There is not so much difference than 
a Xinclude I think, and I'm going to (hopefully) use Cocoon by command 
line to generate static html, pdf, so performance isn't a key feature.

Many thanks, this discussion clarified my ideas!

sunShine resource via cinclude or aggregate

[Steven Cummings]

Hello all,

I'm trying to build up a web-application interface by separating the header and 
sidebar (menu of options) into different pipelines. Those two pipelines are built from 
resources and transformed with sunShine (session) and look like this:

  
  




  
  



  

If I request these resources directly, they resolve just fine and I get the  exact XML 
output that I expect. But then I need to include them in the final page that the user 
will see in the web-app. I've tried two methods so far: using cinclude pointers in the 
main document and then using the cinclude transformer, or aggregating the parts on the 
sitemap. In both methods I get the exact same exception message. In both methods I'm 
also using the same URI to reference the parts: cocoon:/header and cocoon:/sidebar. 
I've also tried with two slashes: cocoon://header. So the best I can figure is that 
for some reason sunShine is having trouble doing it's resource-resolution when it is 
included in another request via the cocoon protocol as opposed to being requested on 
it's own. For anyone who thinks they might be able to help, the exception messages and 
stacktrace follow. Thanks a bunch.

i get the following error while loading cocoon start page (note
that I running on WinXP Pro PL and Tomcat 4.1.12.):

CInclude was an earlier implementation. Later the standard conform 
XInclude was implemented and the CInclude refactored. Now they have in 
general the same functionality AFAIK and somebody wanted to bring them 
to the same code and functionality (so that only the namespaces are 
different and both are usable and do the same).

Good question.  I downloaded Cocoon-2.0.3 as a source tar/gzip.  I then

and told me during build that it was built for 1.4 and wouldn't work

So... Hopefully that answers your question, as it is a rather important one.

RE: Separation of concerns?

[Lenz, Evan]

I've taken this approach in the past. I've found that it involves heavy (or
at least essential) use of the document() function. This approach has been
documented in a couple articles on XML.com.

http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2000/07/26/xslt/xsltstyle.html
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2002/03/27/templatexslt.html

But I learned there are apparently problems with use of the document()
function in Cocoon, given current limitations with respect to caching.

http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faq/faq-xslt.html#faq-6

I was pleased to find Leigh Dodds' note on the Cocoon Wiki for
"metastylesheets".

http://outerthought.net/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=MetaStylesheets

I'm now successfully using this approach in my current project to implement
custom tag libraries in Cocoon without needing to use the document()
function.

However, I am wondering how much this approach really scales. I guess I will
find out.

I believe that putting XSLT into the hands of graphic designers and average
Web developers does *not* achieve separation of concerns. Custom tag
libraries is the way to go. XSP addresses that. But Cocoon appears yet to
directly address the problem of implementing tag libraries *in XSLT*.
Perhaps "metastylesheets" is the way to go. Or perhaps the document()
function is the way to go, and the caching problems just need to get
addressed. Or perhaps there is another approach that I haven't considered.
In any case, this needs to be addressed, IMHO. It's also quite possible that
this has been fully addressed and I just haven't seen it. In that case, I
would appreciate a link to that discussion :-)

XSP from EJB?

[EKasunic]

Hello.  I am new to Cocoon and XSP and was wondering if it is possible to
use the XSP's on their own outside of the pipeline framework.  More
specifically would I be able to use a ServerPagesGenerator to process a XSP
using ESQL to get an XML document from within a session bean? Currently we
are constructing JDOM documents with the results of our SQL queries and
returning these from our session beans.  I was thinking XSP could offer a
flexible means of doing this.  If this is possible does this sound like a
reasonable idea or are there other issues that I don't see at this time? In
addition to this, is there any way of utilizing the connection pool defined
in my app. server (I am using webLogic) rather than creating a cocoon
connection pool?

I would appreciate any comments, ideas, criticisms that anyone may have to
offer.

Regards,
Eric

Re: Separation of concerns?

[Andy Lewis]

I have found it a great advantage to have someone who is a developer, not a designer, 
work with
the designer to create the XSLT to produce a particular design. Most designers 
struggle with
dynamic components and web-related efficiency concerns. The developer and designer 
working
together usually produces a good rendition of the design, but adapted in a way that 
makes sense.
Never let a pure designer produce your templates.

Re: cinclude and sitemap parameters

[Jakob Praher]

yeah the question is what is then more efficient:

the map:aggregate mechanics or a compiled xsp page
I am only wondering since Ovidiu, on his weblog,
states that map:aggregate is harmful.

given that you can do dyamic includes with
map:aggregate it is the question what is more
performant...

Yes. I mean create a default value for this. Then in the insert I omit to send 
a value for the date field and the database server make it for me.

I am sure that in MS SQL Server must be a similar instruction to do that. Lets 
check the command for CREATE TABLE (or something similar) and how to create a 
default value for a date field.

For example in PostgreSQL I write use:

CREATE TABLE CanjeEstado
  (
can_id   int4not null,
tec_id   int4not null default 1,
usr_id   int4not null,
ces_tiempo   timestamp   not null default now(),

primary key(can_id,tec_id),
unique(can_id,tec_id),
);

As you can see, the ces_tiempo is of type TIMESTAMP can not be null and there 
is a default value for the field tha is defined using the built-in function 
"now()".

Check for something similar in your database I am sure there must be a similar 
approach.

Antonio Gallardo

Re: cinclude and sitemap parameters

[Geoff Howard]

IMHO it makes more sense to make aggreate.xml dynamic
- a very simple xsp taking a parameter from the
sitemap would do what you want and involves no further
transforms beside the cinclude.  Look into xsp.

RE: enctype="multipart/form-data" problem

[Geoff Howard]

It is already fixed in 2.0.3, the release version:

private Hashtable readHeaders(TokenStream in)

Hashtable headers = new Hashtable();
String hdrline = readln(in);

while (!"".equals(hdrline)) {
StringTokenizer tokenizer = new
StringTokenizer(hdrline);

headers.put(tokenizer.nextToken("

tokenizer.nextToken(" :;"));

// The extra tokenizer.hasMoreTokens() in
headers.put

while (tokenizer.hasMoreTokens()) {
headers.put(tokenizer.nextToken("

tokenizer.hasMoreTokens()

Re: Installing: javax.servlet.ServletException: Servlet.init()

[Geoff Howard]

Check that the user tomcat _is running as_ has write
permission to webapps and tomcat/work - but I don't
know who serviceconf makes as the user.  If it's not
the same user that you're logged in as, the chmod you
did didn't help even besides the work dir.

Also, it doesn't look like you did anything to the
tomcat/lib/endorsed  as mentioned in
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=103121674125637&w=2.

sending an xml document with POST

[Barbara Post]

Hi,

Is there a way to get an XML document from somewhere (xml stream in a normal
pipeline) and POST it through an html form ? Or another way ?

My issue is POSTing something to an XML database (Tamino) with the value of
"_process" request parameter being the document's content.

I tried to use xsl:copy in a stylesheet to fill this value but it did not
work (missing "<" and ">" tags).
I tried something with cinclude transformer but xalan grumbled about
 tag not being where it should...

In fact I want to check the time processing improvement I get instead of
using xml:db driver... this driver makes reads from database very slow
compared to direct reads !! So what about writes ? :-)

Thanks if you have an idea, otherwise don't worry.
Have a nice day, just trying to improve my app...

Babs

With esql:get-string it is included as text, hence the escaped
<,>. With esql:get-xml it is included as XML (i.e. sax-events). For
this it needs to be valid XML (i.e. exactly one root element, all
namespaces declared).

good idea.
but it invokes another transformation.
given that the transformation could be chached, this
should not matter too much.
but it would be a good thing to be able to access the
sitemap parameters within a resolver uri like that:
cocoon:/{uri} ... this would denote the parameter uri
or something like that... .

XMLForm and dates

[Sylvain.Thevoz]

Hello,

I use XMLForm and I want to put the today date in a form.
The problem is that the today date has to be a String because the XMLForm simply 
display the value of the Bean class attribute. If this value is not a String, the date 
can't be read!
But I want to store the today date in a Date format (because I have a timestamp format 
in my database).

How to store the date in a Date type and display it like a String?
How to do this??

Thank you
Sylvain

my data is rather simple so I don't need chapters and subchapters. Maybe

R: Separation of concerns?

[Luca Morandini]

Lorenzo,

to ease the burden on your graphic designers, you could even build a sort of
"taglib" with XML elements to be expanded by an appropriate XSL.

I've done a lib which allows me to specify "smart" HTML without the need of
XSL (well, it works behind the scenes)... here's an example:



I hope you got the idea :)

Re: How to handle xml-fragment from db

[Mohamed El-Refaey]

Hi Robert

mainly the returned XmlFragment  that u retrieve from DB as String must 
be parsed before u can deal with it ... that is why u have the code 
string for the symbol "<"--- >

"<"  ... I faced this problem also but I didn't use XSP ...I implemeted a Transformer to get this String fragment and parse it and stream it out into the pipline to be proccesed as u want through ur stylesheet.

so u must parse the String before u deal with it.

I wish that will help

cinclude and sitemap parameters

hi all,

is it possible to access a sitemap parameter, within
the cinclude tag in a page like this:

sitemap:


   
   
  
   
   


aggregate.xml


   


this would be great since one could use this pattern
for site-frameworks which don't know which pages they
include 

thanks

RE: Cocoon Portal - User Roles

[Matthew Langham]

>>
Since the the "new role" function in the 
portal sample is mapped to  uri, it is 
using this sitemap snippet right?
 
        
    
    
    
    
    
    

and the 
documentations says that 
 
The 
new-role resource creates a new role in the system. It gets the 
parameters "type" with the value "role" and "role" with the new 
rolename.  
 
Where is the "type" and "role" 
parameter?
and why does it have to serialized in an xml type 
in the end?
<<
 
You 
need to take a look at the file sunrise-newrole.xml. That file contains most of 
the dirty work. The transformers session, cinclude and writesource act on the 
information contained in there. Because sunrise-newrole.xml also flows through 
the pipeline it is then formatted by the stylesheet and returned to the browser. 
It is serialized to xml because it is being used inside the portal (in this 
case).
 
If you 
wanted to write this to a database you would need to change the 
sunrise-newrole.xml and use the sqltransformer instead of cinclude and 
write-source. In all this should take you around 5 minutes or less to adapt. 
:-)
 
So it 
really is quite simple really.

I think you pointed out quite a big issue, though from my point of view this
is not such a problematic one.

I currently work in a co-founded small company. We are 1 programmer, 1
HTML/graphic designer, 1 HTML/Flash developer, 1 junior developer which has
no actual programming skills, but quickly learned HTML and XSL.

You could ask: why Cocoon in such a small team? The answer is XSL itself.

Currently, our application development work in the past few years (we are
focused on small-medium businesses) has been mainly on e-commerce,
data-driven, customer-updatable sites and, later, content management for
small-to-medium publishing needs.

We ended up in producing many, many times the same mini-applications,
branding them differently each time. This led us (even on the ASP platform
we were, and still mainly are, working on) to XSL. ASP already (no .NET) has
a few underlooked features (XML serialization of a Recordset object to a
Stream object, for example, which is quite fast and can support XSL
transformation) which allowed us to separate the presentation layer from the
content/logic one. This actually allowed me to totally drop the production
of such applications to the junior programmer. He also benefits from the
separation, by actually reusing 99% of the code (we embedded database write
logic in a single "library" .asp file, the only required code changes are
for changing SELECT queries), and by being able to personalize the look by
only changing one XSL template file.

This simple implementation of a XML/XSL separation, much simpler but similar
to Cocoon's approach, already gave us these benefits.

The next step, which we are experiencing in the development of quite a large
e-learning site (with Cocoon), is to directly let the designers access the
XSLs, by giving them the basic XSL skills required to do the job.

I find that The XSL skills required are not really heavy. Heavy XSL skills
are, in my opinion, required in working on complex structure transformations
that come *before* the final, presentation-aimed XSL transformation. Our
experience is that, instead, the final transformation deals 99% of the time
with: a) a container with many rows of data (a master, which can be easily
handled even with a simple ; b) an item of data with many
fiels (a detail). Such XSL-drive HTML renderings are done mostly using
 inserted into traditional HTML markup and I found that even
the HTML designer and the Flash developer are comfortable with them.

Of course you need designers who know HTML. But even this requirement could
fade in the future, since tools like Dreamweaver already support XHTML
conformance, and they could easily be scripted to allow insertion of XSL
value elements and for-each loops.

Oggetto: Separation of concerns?


I have a (multi-part) question about the suggested "separation of concerns" 
that it is proposed that Cocoon achieves.

I would like to ask how Cocoon is being used in a production environment, 
specifically how does separation of roles work out. Does it actually work 
in practice? How easy is it in production settings to find "graphics 
designers" who are also fluent in XSLT?

Aren't such bi-skilled people essential to achieve the implementation of 
the "style" concern? Or, in practice, are "real" designers and "real" XSLT 
coders working together on the XSLT stylesheets?

I guess that the suspicion that is lurking at the back of my mind is that 
the "confusion of concerns" (to coin a phrase) is, to some extent, being 
shuffled off into the "style" box. Of course, that may be a signficant 
improvement over other workflows.

I can see pretty clearly the cleanness of the current approach for 
programmers/administrators ... designers don't touch the content nor the 
sitemaps ... but I do have slight doubts about the cleanness of the style 
concern. Or maybe my doubt is about the realisticness of finding graphics 
designers comfortable to code in XSLT.

I notice, too, that style is little mentioned in the online documentation 
and doesn't appear as a term in the index of the Langham/Ziegeler book. 
That makes me wonder if others either have doubts too about the style 
concern or, perhaps, haven't looked (yet?) in a detailed way at how this 
will work.

I wonder if what has mostly been happening up to now is XSLT-coders 
dabbling with design? :)

I would be interested in any stories about the reactions of "pure" graphics 
designers in a production setting when first faced with the Cocoon approach 
and how they and, I suspect, XSLT-programmer colleagues actually worked out 
a practical workflow.

Re: Cocoon Portal - User Roles

[Richard Reyes]

Hi 
Matthew,
 
Thanks for the reminder!
 

Hi,
 
each function of the 
portal is mapped to a pipeline. So in order to change the storage - all you have 
to do is to modify the pipeline to use say the SQLGenerator 
etc.
 
Read the 
documentation. http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/developing/webapps/authentication.html
 
It explains this in 
detail (see under User Administration). Then look at the pipelines that are 
currently used to get a feel for how it works at the moment.

Right, this appears to be a bug in Xalan, see
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8734

If you don't use the same type of quotes inside the string it is OK
IIRC. The other option is to use search and replace all \" with '
s/\\"/'/g

Please be aware that the above code may allow a user to substitute
sNachname with a string like '"; close database; drop database somedb;' 
what is probably not intended. Consider using prepared statements like

select distinct nUserID, sUserName from users where
sNachname like sNachname+"%"

Hi Andrew,

Andrew Watt wrote:

Yup.


I would be interested in any stories about the reactions of "pure" 
graphics designers in a production setting when first faced with the 
Cocoon approach and how they and, I suspect, XSLT-programmer 
colleagues actually worked out a practical workflow.


What we do here is:

- Designers build HTML, WML etc prototypes.

- Programmers modify the prototypes to be XHTML+CSS compliant. Usually, 
the prototypes are enhanched during this stage (designers are very bad 
when it comes to download time, accesibility, usability etc. They give 
you huge images that can be replaced with much smaller versions 
manipulated with CSS). Many images are removed completely, using some 
common background image and real text. This is the most tricky stage and 
talented people are importand; I'm talking about programmers opening 
Gimp, editing images and code at the same time...

- Programmers translate the prototypes to XSLT.

IMHO, the only reason we need designers is for not eating up even more 
time from people that can code. Plus we always feed designers to the 
marketing dpt ;-)

In general, I've been a designer, a programmer and whatever. I think the 
most valuable people are the ones that can wear many hats, thus able to 
coordinate the work of different people. Design tools suck and we only 
use them for prototyping.

If it counts to anything, I believe Cocoon will help a lot in delivering 
different content from the same data. Doing that with 
JSP/PHP/ASP/whatever prooves to be a pain in large projects.

RE: enctype="multipart/form-data" problem

[Volker Schneider]

Hi myself,

this is a bug in MultipartParser.java in the readHeaders() method within
Cocoon 2.0.2.

When you define  and you use a  field,
the header will contain:

...name="uploadedfile"; filename=""

When filename is empty the StringTokenizer in readHeaders() will have no
more tokens, but will get a nextToken() call.

Here's an approach for a bug fix:

...
while (tokenizer.hasMoreTokens())
{
  // old code
  //  headers.put(tokenizer.nextToken(" ;=\""),
  //  tokenizer.nextToken("=\""));

  // new code
  String key = tokenizer.nextToken(" ;=\"");
  String value = "";
  if (tokenizer.hasMoreTokens())
  {
value = tokenizer.nextToken("=\"");
  }
  else
  {
value = "";
  }

  headers.put(key, value);
  // end of new code
}

This helps unless the filename="" is not followed by an additional
attribute, but it helps for the moment.

Please fix this bug, if it is not done yet.

Best regards

[Josema Alonso]

I know, thank you.

Btw, what about filling a DOM node in the model from outside?
For example, I'm using Xindice, and there's that nice pseudo protocol
working on Cocoon.

I would like to query the DB using the pseudo protocol. It returns me a
collection. Now I want to feed the Form with this collection. A first
approach would be to load the collection in a DOM node for example. But I
can't see how I could do it, maybe with a sitemap parameter? May I load that
result there and then get it in the action in the act method?
The alternative is to query the DB directly inside the model or the action
and load the values, but I think it is a worse approach.

Well, that would be a first step. The second would be to have the model
empty. Then, after loading the coleection, properties would be 'created at
runtime' for every element. I do not know if it would be possible, but it
sounds too hard to me. Just a random idea...

Best.

class files from the build directory cocoon-2.0.3/build/cocoon/classes.  
 The following worked for me.  Maybe this will help.

cd /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12/webapps/cocoon/WEB-INF/lib
setenv CLASSPATH  
".:/usr/local/cocoon-2.0.3/build/cocoon/classes:avalon-framework- 
20020627.jar:avalon-excalibur-vm12-20020705.jar"
java org.apache.cocoon.Main --help

Hope that helps.

Darren

But the versions of the libraries are not those. For instance, it

be avalon-framework-20020627.jar instead.

I've tried to modify the MANIFEST file but at the end it didn't work  
the
same. It's likely I'm not able to build a JAR, however it seems Cocoon
can't be used from the command line right now out-of-the-box, am I  
wrong?

SourceWritingTransformer and sub-sitemap

[Barbara Post]

Hi,

I use SourceWritingTransformer 3 times, and the XML stream that is processed
by this transformer is produced by a sub-sitemap. So that my XML database
queries are gathered there.

The bug : my transformer wants to write in the "ino" folder, where is placed
the sub-sitemap. Not the folder of the main sitemap. I tried to understand
the transformer's code but it's a bit too hard for me :-(

So here are the info :
Cocoon CVS from 10/02 with JDK 1.3.1

Main sitemap snippet :

   
   

 
 
  
  
  
  
   
  
  
 

   

and in the same pipeline :



  


writelicensehtmlbody.xsl :


 
 
../licensekeys//htmlbody.h
tml



   

You see that I have to add "../" to the  URI.
I wonder why the call to a sub-sitemap changes some cocoon environment
variable ?...
Is the map:mount misconfigured ?

Thanks a lot,

Barbara

PS : I am just doing cosmetics (to my project), this is why I reappear on
the list...

RE: Cocoon Portal - User Roles

[Matthew Langham]

Hi,
 
each 
function of the portal is mapped to a pipeline. So in order to change the 
storage - all you have to do is to modify the pipeline to use say the 
SQLGenerator etc.
 
Read 
the documentation. http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/developing/webapps/authentication.html
 
It 
explains this in detail (see under User Administration). Then look at the 
pipelines that are currently used to get a feel for how it works at the 
moment.

So do you see anything wrong in those installation notes?

Clearly copying the jars has had some effect.

Re: Cocoon Portal - User Roles

[Wouter Scheele]

ey,

i am not totally aware of the ideas behind the authentication-fw but i think
you could use xsp/esql to generate an xml file from your database conforming
to the authentication-fw specs.

HTH,

RE: : Bug with Cocoon? or Bug with programmer?

[Tom Place]

After searching the created "Java" file (apologies for my earlier
mistake), the request helper is the only place it could be trying to set
the variable.
For example the following XSP (entire file) :

+-+


http://apache.org/xsp";
  xmlns:xsp-session="http://apache.org/xsp/session/2.0";
  create-session="true">

  
Apple

  

 
+-+

Generates the following Java

+-+
public class test_xsp extends XSPGenerator {

  static {
dateCreated = 1037088922427L;
dependencies = new File[]{
   };
  }

  /* Built-in parameters available for use */
  // context- ServletContext
  // request- HttpServletRequest
  // response   - HttpServletResponse
  // parameters - parameters defined in the sitemap

  /* User Class Declarations */


  /**
  * Generate XML data.
  */
  public void generate() throws SAXException, IOException,
  ProcessingException {



this.contentHandler.startDocument();
AttributesImpl xspAttr = new AttributesImpl();



this.contentHandler.startPrefixMapping("xml",
"http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace";);

this.contentHandler.startPrefixMapping("xsp",
"http://apache.org/xsp";);

this.contentHandler.startPrefixMapping("xsp-session",
"http://apache.org/xsp/session/2.0";);


this.contentHandler.startElement("", "page", "page", xspAttr);

xspAttr.clear();


this.characters("\n");

XSPRequestHelper.setSessionAttribute(objectModel,
 String.valueOf("fruit"),
 this.characters("Apple");
);

this.characters("\n");


this.contentHandler.startElement("", "fruit", "fruit", xspAttr);

xspAttr.clear();



XSPObjectHelper.xspExpr(contentHandler,
 
XSPRequestHelper.getSessionAttribute(objectModel,
 
String.valueOf("fruit"), ""));


this.contentHandler.endElement("", "fruit", "fruit");


this.characters("\n  ");


this.contentHandler.endElement("", "page", "page");


this.contentHandler.endPrefixMapping("xml");

this.contentHandler.endPrefixMapping("xsp");

this.contentHandler.endPrefixMapping("xsp-session");


this.contentHandler.endDocument();
  }
}

+-+

So as you can see from the above the only place it is possible creating
the session variable is 
XSPRequestHelper.setSessionAttribute(objectModel,
 String.valueOf("fruit"),
 this.characters("Apple");
);
And this is where the rogue semicolon appears.

I can remove the rogue semicolon by creating the String "Apple" and
reverencing that string through  tags. But this leads to a
nullPointerException.

I think that either I am being really dim with this or some powers that
I can't control are at work here!

Thanks for everyone's help so far

Tom Place
