Thanks for your help. I will have a go at it now and let you know how i'm doing. I'm taking a course called Computer Studies and there's 6 modules in the course. The course contains a mixture of everything, 1 module is database development, another is web design and so on. The module i'm doing at the moment is advanced internet development and this assignment happens to be on XML. My lecturer is useless and all he's said is to search for tutorials to help.
I have managed to get the XML text displayed in the browser so that's a start, at least i'm making progress! Now I can do that, i'll concentrate on writing some code to help me create a default opening page. I suppose i'll have to look through more tutorials to help me with that! Thanks for your help so far

For some reason the <cd> titles etc aren't copying. If you could just type http://www.w3schools.com/xml/cd_catalog.xml into your browser you will see what code I am on about. I copy it into notepad, save it as a .html file, but when I try opening it up in IE, the XML files aren't rendered, there's no red + and - symbols like there should be?

I have studied my own way to an advanced degree in computer science and taught a number of programming courses along the way. I would love to help...
Go to class on the days that it is taught, engage your professor during office hours and ask for assitance from him. Study the lecture material and ask for clarifications in class. Do your homework when it is assigned to the best of your ability. Don't take classes you have no business taking and hope you can beg your way to a good grade on the Internet.
CodeProject is not a site to come to to get professionals to do your school work for you.
There is a part of the assignment that you may want to reread: "YOU are required to demonstrate YOUR understanding." I'd do this for you, but I already passed all my classes.

What's the point of this messageboard existing if you can't ask for help? Don't you have a go at me, I attend all the lectures and have read all the notes, looked at websites and have even taken a book from the library but i'm still struggling. Luckily a helpful guy above has assisted me and now i'm alright. If you're not posting to help me out, don't bother posting to me at all!

Hi Friends,
I am developing a web application using C#.net and using xml as a database.
I am using xml Schema for all my xml files.
NO I want to export data from those xml files to excel sheet to create reports.
For that I create xml stylesheets means .xslt files.
and Using XsltTransform I am exporting data from xml files to excel sheets.
Now the problem is if my xml files r bound with schemas this idea is not working.
I have to remove schema attribute from the root node of the xml file. and if I am doing this then there is no mean to using schema.
Is there any way to use xslt file with the xml file which is bound with xml schema?
If any one of u have any idea regarding this, plz let me know.
Thank u all in advance.
Chetan Ranpariya.

How can I do this? I simply want to add the "im" field (which is in the XML file) at the end of the path of the new Bitmap line of code, so that the correct jpg is shown. I've created filestreams and everything works fine for the the text fields. The images are located in the "Program Files\SmartDeviceApplication1" directory, as is the XML file. If I type in the actual name of an image, it works, but of course the image is shown for every entry. (So I know the directory path is correct) Right now I'm getting "cannot convert string to System.Drawing.Image"
In the simplest sense, I want to do this:
\\Program Files\\SmartDeviceApplication1\\<im>
so that it reads:
\\Program Files\\SmartDeviceApplication1\\kopf_ap.jpg
Any help is appreciated! Martina
Snippet XML file:
<im>>kopf_ap.jpg</im>
Snippet Code (C#)
<br />
<br />
picbox.DataBindings.Add("Image",dt,"im");<br />
<br />
Bitmap bmp= new Bitmap("\\Program Files\\SmartDeviceApplication1\\");<br />
<br />
this.picbox.Image = bmp +"im";
|
|
|
|
|
Maybe you need to do this?
picbox.DataBindings.Add("Image",dt,"im");
Bitmap bmp= new Bitmap("\\Program Files\\SmartDeviceApplication1\\" + im);
this.picbox.Image = bmp;
|
|
|
|
|
Thank you, I had tried that, but it didn't seem to work.
I ended up doing this:
string root = "\\Program Files\\SmartDeviceApplication1\\";<br />
DataRowView drv = (DataRowView)ca_id.SelectedItem;<br />
<br />
ca_bildurl.Image = new Bitmap(System.IO.Path.Combine(root,drv.Row["im"].ToString()));
I now have another problem - the SelectedItem doesn't seem to work, but at least the first image is being shown.  Thanks for your reply, though!

Hai,
I have grouped the paragraph styles of same type using the following method.
<!-- match paragraph nodes that are part of a Bullet list -->
<xsl:template match="w:p" mode="insideBulletList">
<!-- output this bullet item paragraph -->
<li><xsl:apply-templates /></li>
<!--go to next one-->
<xsl:apply-templates
select="following-sibling::*[1][self::w:p/w:pPr/w:pStyle[@w:val='BulletList']]"
mode="insideBulletList" />
</xsl:template>
My Wordml contains the following paragraph styles
w:p[w:pPr/w:pStyle[@w:val="para1"]
w:p[w:pPr/w:pStyle[@w:val="para2"]
w:p[w:pPr/w:pStyle[@w:val="para3"]
I want to group the above 3 different styles under one parent node like
<newnode>
<para1>38293</para1>
<para2>sdjfkj</para2>
<para3>eiruwio</para3>
</newnode>
I brought the above output using <xsl:for-each select="*" group-starting-with=""> method. But I want the above output using <xsl:template match> method so that it will maintain the position.
anybody help me!!!!!!!!!

Questions:
---------
1. I would like to group 'quest' & 'answer' under 'qanda'
2. I would like to group 'stanza' under 'poem'
I want to read each element dynamically and should group the orphan nodes such as quest & stanza under another parent element. But, with your suggestion, I could group one at a time. I couldn't do it in a loop. When I tried, I am getting duplicate of orphan nodes and all the attribute values are discarded.
If you could help us to design a xslt that groups "quest & answer" and "stanza" dynamically and retains all other elements untouched.
I sincerely appreciate your help in this regard.
Thanks & Regards,

Try this...
<xsl:template match="/">
<authorgrp>
<xsl:for-each select="fname">
<author>
<fname><xsl:value-of select="."/></fname>
<surname><xsl:value-of select="../surname[position()]"/></surname>
</author>
</xsl:for-each>
</authorgrp>
</xsl:template>I haven't tested it, but it should get you close.

I want function in one namespace to create instance of class defined in
another namespace.
(more detailed - I try to make independent "Seralizer" dll, to be used
by different application, each calling it from its own class which
defines the application configuration)
I failed to make it work.
Notify that in the Seralizer source I dont know the definition of the
class I get.
Foe example, how do I make lines like below working?
public void Deserialize(Type cfgType)
{
myType obj = Activator.CreateInstance(cfgType);
XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer( cfgType);
FileStream stream = new FileStream("some file...", FileMode.Open,
FileAccess.Read);
cfgType configuration = (cfgType)serializer.Deserialize(stream);
}
thanks
