Wait, one more thing...

I have this programed saved in ...

C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\WebLog\Entries\bin

and it's working fine, but I need the .xml to be saved in....

C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\WebLog\Entries

How can I change the following to save the .xml file in the \Entries folder?

string fileName = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMdd_hhmm") + ".xml";<br />
			XmlTextWriter writer = new XmlTextWriter(fileName, null);

Help with XSL

I have a xml file which has at the top but the file contains all printable ascii characters except one line.(This line is optional)
I am converting this file into html using xsl.
My xsl files top line is like this

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
However, when this non-printable ascii character exists xslt conversion does not work. When it is absent it works.
I searched google but no luck. How can I solve this?

I have a weblog thing I made in C#, ASP.NET, it works fine and everthing and stores each entry into and .xml file. Now usually I edit and make new entrys though internet explorer, but then I though how cool would it be to make an application in C# to take the .xml file edit it in the program, then click the save button and have it update the .xml!

Does anybody have any tips or places to look, for help on this???

open two XmlDocuments at same time

Hi,
I need process two nodelists. so I have to open two
XmlDocuments at the same time.
Why does this code crash?

string filename = "D:\test.xml";
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load(filename);
XmlNodeList nl = doc.SelectNodes("TestSequence");

string filenameOpt = "D:\Options.xml";
XmlDocument docOpt = new XmlDocument();
docOpt.LoadXml(filename);

readXML(nl);

One thing that is wrong is that the filename strings are not properly escaped.

Try changing
string filename="D:\test.xml"
to
string filename=@"D:\test.xml"
or
string filename=@"D:\\test.xml"

You will also need to do the same for "D:\Options.xml"

"\t" will translate to a tab character, which will cause the load of the first document to fail as it can not find the file, or possibly that the filename is invalid.

Another problem is that when you are loading the second document you are using LoadXml and not Load. "D:\Options.xml" is not a valid xml string.

I have made both these mistakes far too many times myself WTF | :WTF:

Have you made sure that the second document is valid xml? The best way to do this would be to load the document in internet explorer. You will get an error if the document is not valid.

What exception message are you getting when the code crashes? This can usually lead you to the source of the problem.

I have put off learning XML for as long as I could. I don't know why, I just did. Poke tongue | ;-P

Anyhow, everywhere I turn, there it is, so it's high time I get my butt in gear and read up on it.

Any suggestions on a good place to start? Books? Web sites (besides w3c - already started reading the spec)? CP articles?

I've worked with XML a lot, but I've only read the XML Parser SDK. It also has info about XSL, but I'm finding that part a little hard to digest. So I'd be interested in both XML and XSL books/websites/etc. too, but especially about XSL.

Access Denied when saving DOM document in JS

Jesse Rosalia18-Apr-03 9:10

18-Apr-03 9:10

I am using Javascript, accessing a MSXML4.0 DOMDocument, in conjunction with a .XML and .XSL document. The .XSL document transforms the XML into a web page with a few forms, and a save button. There is javascript code to load the XML document into a DOM object on page load, modify the XML document in memory when the forms are modified, and save the DOM object when a button is pushed, but when I attempt to make a call to the DOM objects save(...) method, it throws a "Access Denied" javascript error. I have written a C++ app with a web browser control which does basically the same thing...browse to the file in the browser, open the file into a DOM (this time in C++, not JScript), and save the DOM in C++ and this works with no problem. Is there some sort of massaging I need to do to the filename, or some permissions I need to adjust to be able to save a file using the DOMDocument object in Javascript? Thanks in advance

Javascript running in IE is not allowed to access the file system of the local machine.

Why are you trying to save the document, is there another way you can get the same result?

I was writing an editor, using the XSLT bound to an XML document to generate a HTML form, which used Javascript to tie into a XML DOM. I wanted to be able to save, and I found a way using a FileSystemObject activex control, but I was just wondering why I couldnt save using the Javascript. Thanks

Hi CPians,

I need to convert Word docs and Excel to XML. The problem is that I need to do this in my ASP.NET application. I am not looking for an application that does this. I need information on how I can implement it myself.

I have been looking around but haven't found anything usefull.

Anyone has any idea?
any links ?

Thanx!

two solutions
1) get word to save the doc as html and convert that
2) use automation to generate an xml documnet directly.

I new about saving as HTML etc... and this is not good for me, but automation seems to be what I need. Big Grin | :-D

It looks as if I have to spend some time on reading about automation, haven't used it before. Confused | :confused:

But I guess this is what soft. dev. is all about!!;P;P;P

In case you didn't know, html is a different thing than xml. Office Xp provides both xml and html support, for import and export. And these are different namespaces and file formats.

For instance, Excel XP outputs a spreadsheet to either .xml using the internal XML-SS file format, or the VML+MSO based .html web archive.
