RE: XPathDirectory generator styling help
Thanks, Andrew. Yes, that worked perfectly. It lops off the .xml extension to give you a Cocoon-style url. Now...on to another issue. ;) Joe On Fri, 2006-11-10 at 18:09 +, Andrew Stevens wrote: From: J.D.

RE: XPathDirectory generator styling help
Hi Ard,
I did, in fact, get it to work with some tweaking of the xsl. The
snippets follow.
What I would like to do now is strip the .xml file extension from the
resulting href in the html. Suggestions?
Joe
P.S. Here is what works.
From this sitemap matcher...
map:match pattern=articles/
map:generate type=xpathdirectory src=articles
map:parameter name=xpath value=/topic/title/
map:parameter name=xmlFiles value=\.x.*$/
/map:generate
map:transform src=mydir2html.xsl/
map:serialize type=html/
/map:match
...we get the title of each article for use as text in the resulting
html a element.
The following xsl...
xsl:template match=/dir:directory
xsl:apply-templates select=dir:directory/
/xsl:template
xsl:template match=dir:directory
xsl:apply-templates/
/xsl:template
xsl:template match=dir:file
xsl:element name=a
xsl:attribute name=href
xsl:value-of select=@name/
/xsl:attribute
xsl:apply-templates select=dir:xpath/
/xsl:element
/xsl:template
xsl:template match=dir:xpath
xsl:value-of select=title/
/xsl:template
...uses the name attribute of each file in the XPathGenerator result as
the href of the a elements in the resulting html...
html
head
title/
/head
body
table id=body
tr
td id=articles
h4 class=menuheaderArticles/h4
a href=article1.xmlArticle the first/a
a href=article2.xmlArticle the second/a
/td
/tr
/table
/body
/html
...which is all ready for tweaking and CSS-ifying and whatever you want
to do to it.

I would like to be able to drop valid xml files into a directory and
have them appear automagically in a menu, with the ability to
transform
the title of the article in the file into the text of a link
if I want.
I get the XPathDirectory generator to work with the following pipeline
matcher.
map:match pattern=articles/*
map:generate type=xpathdirectory src=articles/{1}
map:parameter name=xpath value=title/
map:parameter name=xmlFiles value=\.x.*$/
/map:generate
map:serialize type=xml/
/map:match
The above matcher produces the following output.
?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1?
dir:directory xmlns:dir=http://apache.org/cocoon/directory/2.0;
name=articles lastModified=1162301516000 date=31/10/06 07:31
size=4096 sort=name reverse=false requested=true
dir:file name=article1.xml lastModified=116231223
date=31/10/06 10:30 size=136
dir:xpath query=title
titleArticle title/title
/dir:xpath
/dir:file
/dir:directory
So far, so good.
However, I would like to transform the XML so I can do other
things with
it, such as a quick and dirty dynamic HTML menu or aggregate into
another web page as XML and subsequently transform the title elements
into links. I have attempted the following.
xsl:template match=/
xsl:apply-templates/
/xsl:template
xsl:template match=article
xsl:value-of select=title/
/xsl:template
When I add this XSL to the matcher, still serializing as XML
I get this
result (when viewing the source).
?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1?Article title
Which looks OK, but Firefox complains with the following error.
XML Parsing Error: syntax error
Location: http://localhost:8080/sandbox/articles/
Line Number 1, Column 44:?xml version=1.0
encoding=ISO-8859-1?Article title
---^
Why is it encoded as ISO-8859-1? Everything in my sitemap says UTF-8.
This happens regardless of the charset I specify in Firefox.
Amaya also
complains.

Hi Andrew, I will give this a try and report back. I have a couple other things before I get back to this particular project. Joe How about xsl:attribute name=href xsl:value-of select=substring-before(@name, '.xml')/ /xsl:attribute ?

Re: XPathDirectory generator styling help
Your output is not correct XML. You need to add an element around the text for example change you XSL to thisxsl:template match=/ articles xsl:apply-templates/ /articles/xsl:templatexsl:template match=article article xsl:value-of select=title/ /article/xsl:template On 11/1/06, J.D.
