iam creating a reporting webpage. we have several types of reports like sales , customer ,....... if the user selects sales it will redirects to a separate page where they need to enter different parameters using the dropdown,textbox or listbox. for example they have different parameters like product,month,year,location. the user can enter any combinations. like either they select product and location or month and year like any combinations. once they submit the webpage , we have to pass those parameters to the XML and then query the database according to that. hope you've understood my explanation. so for this i just want to know how to send the parameters to the XML and then query the database. Please help me out

see if this helps[^], I have not read it.

What does 'can't read data' mean ? What happens ? What does your XML look like ?

.NET 1.1

Working with the XmlValidatingReader object with an xsd in the XmlSchemCollection to validate a serialized version of a class.

I am getting this XmlSchemaException when I read through the stream to validate my XML.

"The 'TransactionMethod' element is not declared. An error occurred at , (22, 4)."

I am not an XSD expert and would like to get some feedback as to what may be the cause/solution of/for this exception. Included is an XSD that was generated from the actual class as well as the xml I am trying to validate.

Post the code that you are having trouble with and explain specifically what happens, what is wrong, what the problem is.

Also read this[^]. Pay attention to item #2.

led mike

string file = "D:\\sampleXML2.xml";
XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader(file);
while (reader.Read())
{
switch (reader.NodeType)
{
case XmlNodeType.Text:
Console.WriteLine(reader.Value);
break;
}

FileStream stream = new FileStream("D:\\manohar.txt", FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write);
StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(stream);

sw.WriteLine(reader.Value);

sw.Close();
stream.Close();
}
Console.WriteLine("Enter Any Key");
Console.ReadLine();
}

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load("..\\..\\NavData.xml");
StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter("MyData.txt");
XmlNodeList nodes = doc.SelectNodes("//text()");
foreach (XmlNode n in nodes)
    sw.WriteLine(n.Value);

sw.Flush();
sw.Close();

Hi!

I have a file with next format

<root_xx xmlns="x-schema:mxschema://docsearch">
<docid>36511453

and have to extract from it a docID element with xpath

But when i'm trying to execute something like
/*/docID

it doesn't work.

Could you help me with maitaining xpath expression?

First your post is not accounting for the '<' and '>' characters. Pay attention to the posting guides on the screen to get them posted correctly.

Also are you using some XPath documentation to learn how XPath works? www.w3schools[^] is a good source.

Can anyone help me regarding generating XHTML dynamically using asp.net.........
Thanks in Advance Smile | :)

Reposting your questions is considered rude. If you have specific questions about the materials I pointed you to in your original thread you should use that thread to ask them.

Also perhaps you should read some CodeProject Guidelines[^]

Hi Mike .........
I didnt reposted the question.......
Please once go through these question thoroughly....
In the previoues post i posted the question as how to transform xml to XHTML...
and now the post is how to generate XHTML code Dynamically ..........

Only because you refuse to study the subject yourself. There is an enormous amount of information available on the internet and probably even articles on this site that discuss and provide example code for doing just that. Lazy people who won't do their own work do not frequently find help here on CodeProject. In case you don't realize it, studying and reading documentation is part of a developers work. Wink | ;)

Hi everyone:

I'm having trouble exporting the follow query to XML in a valid format. For some reason it wraps in the middle of a few elements causing .NET to say the end tag is missing. I'm using SQL '05 and when I show the query results in text the same exact thing happens.

Is it possible for to "Export to File" from within Management Studio and specify the format?

<br />
SELECT DISTINCT origin_location AS location<br />
FROM famis_locations<br />
WHERE origin_location <> ''<br />
ORDER BY origin_location<br />
FOR XML AUTO, ELEMENTS<br />

Thanks!

I'm assuming you mean inserting the SQL String as text into an XML TextNode yes?

nickiii wrote:

you can't store text in XML that contains the lessthan and/or greaterthan ('<', '>') characters since they are XML syntax characters. There are various methods to account for this like using entities or encoding the string and then decoding it when you read it back into memory.

led mike wrote:

No. The posted query is what I use to get the locations from SQL. I want to export the location list to XML and read the XML with .NET. The query is actually being ran in Query Analyzer.

Ah, I should have figured that from the FOR XML, by bad.

However it's probably the same problem with the results from the query containing invalid XML Text characters.

You might find more detailed answers in places like this[^]

I Googled this issue earlier and that site came up. Just thought I'd take the easy way out hoping someone has tried the exact same thing as myself.

Thanks for responses led mike!
