| XML/XSLT in WebFocus | Login/Join |
| Master |
Not 100% sure here, but don't you need a third party tool to perform the transformation? I would suggest getting a tool off the web that allows for XML source to be passed via a URL. The URL can then be http:\\server\ibi_apps\WFServlet?IBIF_ex=fexname... | |||

Sorry, should have specified that we already have the parser software. We're already using XML/XSLT, though our web developer has used JAVA to control the processing of the XSLT. (Now I'm being "challenged" to use FOCUS/WebFocus to get the same result) To be more specific, what I am looking to do, either in FOCUS or WebFocus, is to : -run the report which generates a HOLD file in XML format (I have created this report in WebFocus) -run the XSLT, which generates an FO file -generate the PDF from the FO file I know that I will need commands which will point to each of the components in the XML parser. I'm looking for some suggestions as to how I can call these outside processes. Any help is GREATLY appreciated. | ||

Lisa, I've not played too much with anything beyond the XSL application but can generate an XML file with an applied XSL using the following - -* File xml_sample_1.FEX FILEDEF XMLTEST DISK XMLTEST.HTM -RUN -WRITE XMLTEST <?xml:stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="http://server/approot/baseapp/WebFOCUS.xsl"?> FILEDEF XMLTEST DISK XMLTEST.HTM ( APPEND -RUN TABLE FILE CAR SUM RCOST DCOST BY COUNTRY BY MODEL BY CAR ON TABLE SAVE AS XMLTEST FORMAT XML END -RUN -HTMLFORM BEGIN !IBI.FIL.XMLTEST; -HTMLFORM END It may or may not work for you or even get you a bit further along the line. Good luck and please post your eventual solution as I would be most interested. | |||

In case anyone would like t he xsl template to go with the above - here it is <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl"> <xsl:template match="/"> <TITLE>Created by WebFOCUS from <xsl:value-of select="fxf/report/target/@destination"/> </TITLE> <BODY scroll="auto" border="0" oncontextmenu="return false;"> <table border="0" bgcolor="#a0a5ff"> <xsl:apply-templates select="fxf/report/column_desc"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="fxf/report/table"/> </table> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="column_desc"> <tr bgcolor="#a0a5ff"> <xsl:for-each select="col"> <td width="100"> <xsl:attribute name="align"> <xsl:value-of select="@valign"/> </xsl:attribute><xsl:value-of select="@title"/> </td> </xsl:for-each> </tr> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="table"> <xsl:for-each select="tr"> <tr bgcolor="#f0f5ff"> <xsl:if test="td"><xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:if> </tr> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="td"> <td> <xsl:if test="@rawvalue"> <xsl:attribute name="align">right </xsl:attribute> </xsl:if> <xsl:value-of select="."/> <xsl:if test="td"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>Very basic and may not be to everyones exacting standards but it's a start  This message has been edited.
