yes guys you are right but not to have the possibility to use bold character
or dotted list etcetera sometimes makes hard a good description.

Re: [Dspace-tech] [Dspace-devel] [Dspace-general] show HTML data

2009-07-13 Thread Antonio Cuomo
Dear Mark, it's the common behavior with all the DSpace installation i have
seen (MIT included).

The problem is that all the data in the field dc.description are saved as
plain text for security issues.

so the data must to be reconverted in html before being pushed to the UI.

so, do you know what is the java class that retrieve the information from
the database and pass it to the UI?


thank you very much
Antonio

Re: [Dspace-tech] [Dspace-devel] [Dspace-general] show HTML data

2009-07-11 Thread Antonio Cuomo
Dear Mark, thank you for your reply,

unfortunately i didn't worked.

The problem is:
cocoon throught a java class take the data from the data base and pass them
directly to manakin without any change.

manakin build up the layout the sent it to the browser with the data cocoon
passed


the "problem" that the data inside the database are saved as text and
special character are added to avoid SQL-injection
so if i write:
 Ciaoforever

the data appears in the data base in this way

<h3>Ciao</h3> <br/> <p>for ever <p>

and so what the browser receive is

<h3>Ciao</h3> <br/> <p>for ever <p>

that is visualized as
 Ciaoforever

what i need is to decode this special carachers <  and  >  in < and >

to do this i can try to modify the xsl DIM-Handler (do u know how?)

or the java cocoon class (do you know witch one and how?)

Thank you very much
Antonio

[Dspace-tech] show HTML data

2009-07-10 Thread Antonio Cuomo
dear D-Space developer/user

i have a question:

i have some html code in my Database in the description field, of course the
html have been transformed in plain text.
so the database entry is:
 hello  it is a description 

when DSpace shows the database content it actually shows the text:
 hello  it is a description 

while i wuold like to say the html resoults instead:

*hello*
it is a description



How can i do it?

i see two possibilities:

-  Overwrite the java class that take data from the database and send them
to manakin in order to decode the html


- working at Mankin level(but it seems me pretty much more complicated):in
the file DIM-Handler.xsl

 
 ...
 <-- call some
html decoder here
 ...



I'm sure i'm not the first one who had this need... and i can see some
security issues concerned with the solution
can somebody give me some indication or "a solution"?

Thank you very much
Antonio

Thank you very much.
After a period I have been busy with other internal job i can now go back to
this!

The link to the page doesn't work, it takes too much time to be opened and a
have a time out error message.

I tried many time during the last week and i can browse pretty easily so i
think that the problem is on the server-side.

Anyway i want to ask you if the customization done are for JSP interface or
for the manakin or for both.

Thank you

[Dspace-tech] Arabic Support in Dspace

2009-06-10 Thread Antonio Cuomo
Hi dspace community, I'm writing to ask if D-Space support the Arab
language:

Does D-space come in Arabic ?

has DSpace the support to allow typing from right side to left side?  (e.g.
http://www.google.co.ke/language_tools?hl=ar all the input form use the
right left sense)

Thank you very much!

[Dspace-tech] Language customization

2009-05-21 Thread Antonio Cuomo
Hi d-space community, please let me me ask you a couple of questions:

- where can i find a list of the supported language in d-space?

I'm having some unexpected problem with Portuguese and Arabic... since they
are very popular language I expected to find it supported by d-space... am i
that i'm doing wrong?

i used the abbreviation por for Portuguese and ara for Arabic  (ISO
standard)

webui.supported.locales = en, fr, es, swa, ara, por (swa is Swahili)

Am I correct?

Thank you

[Dspace-tech] Add meta data to the dublin core - any possible inconvenience?

2009-05-07 Thread Antonio Cuomo
Hi!

To describe our Capacity building material we need to use some metadata that
are not in dublin core (like the web url).
I have then to add new metadata, my question is:
is it better to add metadata to the dublin core schema or to create a new
schema and define the new metadata needed in the new schema?

Is there any problem for the on-line user to use ad-hoc created metadata
once we will publish our data on line ?

Thank you very much

[Dspace-tech] Modify the upload step behavior in the submission process

2009-04-30 Thread Antonio Cuomo
Hi all, I have a question about the Upload step in the submission process:

Playing around with the item-submission.xml and the input-form.xml I have
been able to customize my submission process...
But:
modifying the item-submission.xml file i can only choose to keep or not the
upload step but I can not change its behavior:
I want to have the possibility to choose in every submission when upload
something or just keep submitting leaving it blank... how can i do it?

Is there some configuration I am missing?
Should I modify the processing-class? and in case where is it located?

[Dspace-tech] Force the dubling core or add new metadata?

2009-04-30 Thread Antonio Cuomo
Hi All, We need to store some meta data that are not provided by the Dublin
core...

Those data are:
- Macro-region  in who's jurisdiction the resource is exercisable or the
document is about.   (it's supposed to be an enumerate North Africa, East
Africa etcetera)


- Country the country in who's jurisdiction the resource is exercisable or
the document is about

- url link to the document (since we have some copyright issues that don't
allow us to upload the material in our repository)


so I have 3 question:

- Is it better to "force" the dublin core assigning those values to metadata
that can have similar purpose or add metadata description to the dublin
core?

- if you suggest me to "force" the existing metadata can you make some
soggestion? (expecially for url link)

- In case i will have to add new metadata definitions is it more suitable to
extend the dublin core
dc.area.countryEgypten dc.area.regionNorth Africaen dc.link
www.just_a_test.com


or to create a new schema (considering that appart of this 3 cases i will
continue to use the dubling core definitions)

apkn.area.countryEgypten apkn.area.regionNorth Africaen apkn.link
www.just_a_test.com

Thanks to everybody!
