Re: [Dspace-tech] Mapping page elements - stylesheets in XMLUI?

2008-04-03 Thread Valerio Minetti
Hi,
 just a quick tip, first of all when you have to deal with templates
defined in some
of the system xslt files like structural.xslt don't modify it but copy
it inside
of your theme xslt. This kind of override is a good practice because
it simplifies
platform upgrade procedures: just backup your custom themes folders and upgrade
from vanilla sources, avoiding the need to hunt/track down all changes
you have done.

About getting properties about your bistreams/items you could try
exporting an item with
org.dspace.app.mets.METSExport   and see which metadata it has.

i hope this could help.

[Dspace-tech] Mapping page elements - stylesheets in XMLUI?

2008-04-01 Thread Mark H. Wood
Is there any sort of guide as to where elements of the XMLUI come from
in the stock theme library?  For example, if I need to add a column to
the table of bitstreams in an item summary or detail view, this part
of the page seems to be built near the bottom of
dri2xhtml/DS-METS-1.0-DIM.xsl.  Is there any shortcut around starting
in dri2xhtml/structural.xsl and pretending to be an XSLT processor
until the affected template is found?

Typically when a software vendor says that a product is intuitive he
means the exact opposite.

Not really, no, but I'd be open to helping build one!

  For example, if I need to add a column to
  the table of bitstreams in an item summary or detail view, this part
  of the page seems to be built near the bottom of
  dri2xhtml/DS-METS-1.0-DIM.xsl.  Is there any shortcut around starting

What I do is hunt up class and id attribute values that I see in the
output. This can be something of a black art, because some such values
are cobbled together in the relevant Aspect, but it does often help.
