I trie to display a greeting Message in an html by redaing the words from xml.This was a my first simple progrma on xml.Use XMLDOM to load xml and xsl to memory.Transfomed into html. The html page dispplay only words of greeting.It doesn't display the text read from xml.
This my xsl code:
<body> words of greeting:
xsl:value-of select="greeting"
</body>
The Xml code
Hello world.

You have to change your <'s to <'s and >'s to >'s. We can't see your XML text.

The Xsl stylesheet File used by xml to display html page
<small><?xml version="1.0"?><!--hellohtm.xsl-->
<html xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/xsl/transform" xsl:version="1.0">
<head><title>Greeting</title></head>
<body><p> words of greeting:<br/>
<b><i><u><xsl:value-of select="greeting"/></u></i></b>
</p>
</body>
</html></small>
The Xml file hodliing greeting message to be printed
<small><?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="type/xsl" href="Hello.xsl"?>
<greeting>Hello world.</greeting></small>
The Html page should display the greeting message read from the xml file:" The page displays only the word of greeting on the page it must also display the xml greeting message Hello World."
<small><html>
<body>
<script language="javascript">
var xml = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
xml.async = false
xml.load("Hello.xml")
var xsl = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
xsl.async = false
xsl.load("Hello.xsl")
document.write(xml.transformNode(xsl))
</script>
</body>
</html> </small>

Excellent, that helps a lot. You have to divide the XML from the XSL. Here's what the XML should look like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<greeting>Hello world.</greeting> And here's an example XSL:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>
<xsl:value-of select="greeting"/>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet> You had the XSL tags in the XML source document. The XML source document should be free-form, meaning that it can be pretty much anything as long as it's legal XML. The XSL is the transform and is pretty specific to the input and output expected. Check out zvon[^] or w3schools[^] for some tutorials on XSL.

Hi Guys
This a ticklish one and espite hunting around the web I cannot find an answer.
Basically what I would like to do is to extract a single instance of any node. For example imagine an XMl file which contains loads of books, authors and keywords for each book. What I would like to do is to extract a single intance of each author.
If you like you could call it an index.
any pointers would be immensley useful.
for the more SQL orientated the relevant code code would be select distinct author from books.
Thanks in advance

In this case, XSL is a little weak. There is a distinct-values[^] function in XPath 2. Microsoft doesn't like XPath 2 and has decided not to support it. You can use another parser like XmlSpy and it will work fine. If you're using an XSLT, you can do a sort on a for-each so you could get all the like author names together, but that's about it.

Hello,
This is my first delve into XML namespaces and I'm having a VERY difficult time parsing the XML because of the Namespace. If I remove the namespace then I get no problems. It would really be appreciated if anybody out there can cure my headache!
Here is my code:
Dim xmlDoc As New System.Xml.XmlDocument()
Dim resolver as XmlUrlResolver = new XmlUrlResolver()
Dim datasource as XmlDataSource = new XmlDataSource()
resolver.Credentials = New NetworkCredential("username", "password")
xmlDoc.XmlResolver = resolver
xmlDoc.Load("http://somedomain.com/webservicename")
Dim xsn as XmlNamespaceManager = new XmlNamespaceManager(xmlDoc.NameTable)
xsn.AddNamespace("t", "urn:ahw:itemlist")
xmlData.Document = xmlDoc
xmlData.TransformSource = "test.xsl"
Here is the XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<itemlist xmlns="urn:ahw:itemlist">
<item name="Photos" friendly-name="Photos" />
<item name="Videos" friendly-name="Videos" />
<item name="OtherMedia" friendly-name="Other Media" />
</item-type-list>
Here is the xsl:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="itemlist">
<TABLE BORDER="2">
<TR>
<TD>Display Name</TD>
<TD>Name</TD>
</TR>
<xsl:for-each select="item">
<TR>
<TD><xsl:value-of select="@friendly-name"/></TD>
<TD><xsl:value-of select="@name"/></TD>
</TR>
</xsl:for-each>
</TABLE>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Here is my asp.net page (the main part where I want the XML to display):
<form runat="server">
<asp:Xml ID="xmlData" runat="server"/>
</form>
Thanks so much for your time!
Chris

Well, first I gotta ask if there's a typo in your input XML. The end tag for the document element doesn't match. The next thing I'd like to know is what is the error you're getting? Do you get the error when you load the document, when you put it in the data document, or when you run the transform?
|
|
|
|

Sorry. Here is the correct XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<itemlist xmlns="urn:ahw:itemlist">
<item name="Photos" friendly-name="Photos" />
<item name="Videos" friendly-name="Videos" />
<item name="OtherMedia" friendly-name="Other Media" />
</itemlist>
I'm not getting an error. Its just nothing appears on page.

Try putting two slashes before itemlist: <xsl:template match="//itemlist">

I got it working now!!!
Heres is what I needed to change in the XSL:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:t="urn:ahw:itemlist"
exclude-result-prefixes="t">
<xsl:template match="t:itemlist">
<TABLE BORDER="2">
<TR>
<TD>Display Name</TD>
<TD>Name</TD>
</TR>
<xsl:for-each select="t:item">
<TR>
<TD><xsl:value-of select="@friendly-name"/></TD>
<TD><xsl:value-of select="@name"/></TD>
</TR>
</xsl:for-each>
</TABLE>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Ah the namespace. Of course. Should have seen that

hi,
How to display XML document in the Standard RSS 2.0 format in asp.net?
I am writing XML through Dataset but it is not in the format of RSS 2.0.
How I should convert this XML in RSS 2.0 format so that it can be readable by any RSS news reader.
I want a tag related to <rss version="2.0"> instead of <newdataset> and <channel> instead of
My code snippet is as follows:
<newdataset>
<title>fgdhfgjkhdf<>@#%#%%#%&*&)&){}gggg'jkk;<ghghgjgh>

Hi,
i am working on asp. i am new to .Net technology & xml.i am trying to learn .net technology.
my question is where can we use xml in our project?? i mean when i think of using xml, i am not getting any ideas.i have gone thru xml (from w3schools.com). when i read the topics, i am understanding the topics, but when i want to implement them in my sample project (it's a just simple banking application. which deals with opening accounts and managing accounts...)
any suggestions please..................
thanks,
Rahi

IMHO, XML is basically a readible hierarchical data container in a text document. Optionally, you can enforce its structure and data types using a schema. You have several methods of reading, updating, creating and transforming this data using DOM, XSLT, and push and pull streaming.
Using XML with a banking application is possible. However, you have to be aware of security issues that will come up.

I cannot answer where and how since I don't know your application's requirements. XML is a generic technology, and I don't have the time to list all of its possible uses that you may entertain. Nevertheless, the .NET Framework uses a lot of XML technologies. For example, a dataset object relies on XML technology for database activities on and off-line.

Hi Rahi,
Just like you, I'm new to .NET and had a similar question a couple of months ago. While I will not be able to provide a comprehensive answer as to when and where to use XML, I can tell what I've done with it, and maybe it'll help you see one of its uses. I've been working on the client side of an application that uses web services provided by a number of search engines. Before the user can start querying the search engines, he needs to specify some data, such as the names of the supported seach engines to use, the number of queries to submit per engine, the names of the files containing the queries, etc. Squeezing all these options into one interface along with the actual "start-stop-search feature" would make for a busy-looking GUI, especially since the ultimate client does not need to have access to all these options all the time--only to the start-stop-search feature and an options file containing all that info. So as not to hardcode the search options, I split the application in two: if the user has an options file (with all these options set), he can simply specify it in the dialog box and click the "Start Search" button. If there is no such file, he can click on the menu option that starts the other form with the GUI allowing him to fill in the data and create an options file. I use XML to store the data created by the options builder form into the options file. When the user specifies the options file (containing all this data); he only sees a very simple GUI, where he needs to specify the location of the options file and click the "Start Search" button. While the user doesn't mess with XML at all, the application does, since the format helps it access the data in a more organized manner, where I can extract the relevant data, say for the number of queries for Google, Yahoo, or MSN by extracting the data in the options file stored under the tag of "GoogleQueries", "YahooQueries", or "MSNQueries". Hope this makes it a little clearer for you. If not, you may want to grab a book (I used "C# Programming") and take a look at the examples given there.

You can check out "C# Cookbook" written by Jay Hilyard and Stephen Teilhet: there are a lot of useful examples there. Perhaps, you'll be able to find something that'll suit you.
Good luck!
