I'm writing a bit of Javascript (not quite a total newbie but gosh-darn close, though I have experience in other programming languages) to display some XML transformed by XSL. I've created the files to do this and if I use them seperately (sans Javascript), it displays just fine. And that's fine for browsers that have that capability and can handle that without issues, but I'd like to see if I couldn't increase its compatibility a bit by using (drum-roll) Javascript.

Here's the contents of the two files. All of the info is completely made up.

I've got a question about XSL. I currently have it turn one XML document into another XML document to make sure the first one passes all requirements of the template. It removes empty tags (ie, ) - the spec clearly says it will do so when using - but I would like to keep them. Is there a way to keep these tags?

So for the website I work on, a new blog is up that replaces the old one. Some outside-my-control websites previously referenced the atom.xml file on the old website, but since the address for the new atom.xml is totally different, i want all the people trying to reference the old xml file to be redirected to the new one instead. the only major problem is that because i'm using Y!SB (ps: boo), i can't use any .htaccess files.

when i wanted to redirect something before, i would use some php (http://mag1.olivesoftware.com/ActiveMagazine/welcome/plm/plenty.asp");?>), but since i'm now trying to redirect an xml file and not a php one, i sadly can't do that.

so how do i redirect something while being unable to use .htaccess?

Hi guys,
I was just fooling around with AJAX for the first time and it's working fine so far, but of course some problems are around.

My question is, is there some possibility to insert PHP code in Javascript?
I have my JavaScript file, and now I need to tell it somehow which ID to select from the database.

function showFan(str) {
var url="getFans.php?id=" + Math.random() + "&q=" + str
xmlHttp=GetXmlHttpObject(stateChanged)
xmlHttp.open("GET", url , true)
xmlHttp.send(null)
}

The second line is the one that bothers me. There should be the SQL table variable after the id=, like this; getFans.php?id=$country. The +Math.random() stuff is from the tutorial, no idea what it does, and the rest of the line is also from the tutorial, they used ASP there but I have no clue about asp. So can anyone help me out with and and tell me what PHP code I need to have in my getFans.php in order to make this work? My getFans.php is just a file with the usual database connections and printing stuff, nothing else.

Thanks is advance :)

Hi there.

I'm trying to load an XHTML file as a DOMDocument, and get its

Body

query($path, $context);

        $obj = new ReflectionObject($list);
        print("
Search from \"" . $context->nodeName

            . "\" (" . $obj->getName() . ")
\n");

        print("
\n");
        for ($i = 0; $i < $list->length; ++$i)
        {
            print("
" . $list->item($i)->nodeName . "
\n");
        }
        print("
\n");
    }

    $dom = new DOMDocument();
    $dom->load("page1.php");
    print("
Document Element node name: "
        . $dom->documentElement->nodeName . "
\n");

    pathsearch($dom, $dom, "/html/head/title");

    pathsearch($dom, $dom, "/");
    pathsearch($dom, $dom->documentElement, "/");

    pathsearch($dom, $dom, "/*");

I'm trying to utilize the System.Drawing.Drawing2D.HatchStyle enumeration in order to define a Brush type. The thing is, I need this to be dynamic in that I want to be able to change the HatchStyle changing a value in an XML file.

The XML looks somewhat like this:

System.Drawing.Drawing2D.HatchStyle.Weave



Anyway, I get the HatchStyle node but I can't get it to explicitly convert to the right type.

This is how I thought it would work:

System.Drawing.Drawing2D.HatchStyle objHatchStyle = (System.Drawing.Drawing2D.HatchStyle)Stylenode.InnerText;


but the line fails stating that it can't convert from type string to type HatchStyle.

Any ideas?

I just finished the beta of ZMLC, which can be located at:
http://www.mathgladiator.com/jeff/code.html

In a nutshell, the software lets me (and anyone that wishes) to define an object model in one large file. This file is compiled to produce C++ headers, serialization code to and from XMLjr, and serialization code to and from flat binary. Furthermore, a C# class library is built with the same behavior (except for binary serialization). My goal was to create a C# scene editor for a C++ scene graph that evolves constantly.

Anyone want to beta test?

Okay. So I've been trying to install SQL Server 2005 for about a month now, on and off. I keep running into the usual problems. My boss wants it installed now now now, so this time I went whole hog. I uninstalled everything remotely Microsoft (including all versions of Visual Studio, all versions of the .NET framework, Office, and a bunch of little add-ons I assumed went to Visual Studio, like WSE and the XML parsers) from the machine. I physically deleted every file I could from the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server directory. (instapi.dll, from the Microsoft SQL Server\90 directory could not be deleted, no matter what I did, but everything else went away). I try to install, and when I get to the point where it's actually going to install the software< I get the following dialog box:

The following components that you chose to install are already installed on the machine. To view a report of available options and alternatives click on Details.
SQL Server Database Services 9.00.1309.06
Analysis Services 9.00.1309.06
Reporting Services 9.00.852
Notification Services 9.00.852
Integration Services 9.00.852
Workstation Components, Books Online, and development tools 9.00.852

Each of these has a checkbox next to it, but all the checkboxes are blank. When I hit Next, I get the following dialog box:
None of the selected features can be installed or upgraded. Setup cannot proceed since no effective change can be made to the machine. To continue, click Back and select features to install.

Now, I know the physical fiels aren't there, since I uninstalled the software and then deleted any artifactas, so the problem must be that there are some stray registry keys telling the install procedure that the software still exists on the machine. Does anyone have a comprehensive list of registry keys written by SQL Server 2005, so I can make sure everything is gone before I try this again?

Was talking to a fellow programmer today at work and he was saying that there is a function or routine in PHP to alter a title of a page in an include file that has been called AFTER the head tag. But of course, he couldn't remember right off hand how to do it. I wouldn't doubt there's a way to do it though I thought PHP works asynchronously. But maybe not with output (???). This isn't the first time I've heard of it being done. But such a routine would be quite useful when using PHP as a page template with include files (not that that's common or anything ;)

Generally in the past I've just used but if there's a way to do it within PHP alone, could someone put up such an example or explain how it's done?

There's a lot of circumstances where it's not just convienent to set all page content in variables, call an include before output then shuffle them into place within different places on the page. I know about the xml_set_processing_instruction()/eval() design and using XML but in many cases that's more work than simply calling a short javascript tag (call me lazy).

Any enlightenment welcome :)

This issue has been solved to a satisfactory level. Working example here.

Hey folks. I've been attempting to replace some AJAX stuff that refreshed every X milliseconds using the XMLHTTP object, with a streaming equivalent using inline frames and PHP delays. However, i've hit a snag in that data seems to be sent out in 4kb chunks - far too large for my intended purpose.

While this streaming example is fine providing that 4096 bytes of data is sent between each portion, this dosen't go very far towards increasing consecutive update speed and efficency (by preventing the constant cycle of connect-download-disconnect). I am aiming to only send out about 512 bytes from the server, per portion. I have yet to work out if the 4kb limit is being implemented by the client or the server.

So basically what I want to do is be able to have the code below work without needing 4kb of useless padding.

This code is not currently Moz/FF compatible, due to an issue with the way I move the content from the iframe with javascript (window.frames["streaming_iframe"].document.body.innerText returns "undefined" in FF).

header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate");

echo "";

  if (@$_GET["stream"]) {
  
    for ($i=0;$i<10;$i++) {
        
      for ($x=0; $x<(1024 * 4); $x++) { //4kb chunks seem favoured?
      echo " "; // Padding
      }
      
    echo $i."\n\r";
    usleep(500000);
    }
  
echo "";

  exit;
  }
?>

I’ve been challenged at my work to develop something on the order of a mobile helpdesk.
We run clientele as our helpdesk software, not that it’s important but it’s pretty popular.
Also my department just got new Windows Mobile devices and I’m been exploring different ways to use them and I’m looking into being able to view a database remotely.
Is it possible to extend a database view with ASMX is that what ASMX does, or should I be looking at straight XML for just simply viewing a remote database table.

First time on this server, last night I tried

$doc = domxml_new_doc()

Got a function undefined error. Apparently domxml isn't installed by default on PHP 5? I thought it was.

I did phpinfo and I do lave libxml2 installed, it also says that XML is enabled. But what was really wierd is that no configure command came up on phpinfo. Is everything handled through php.ini on PHP 5??? Me confused. Nowhere could I find a file that has my install configuration.

Give me the tools and I can code, make me install this crap and I get the urge to go out and kill a penguin. Grrr.

Any ideas?

I'll *try* to make this short and sweet without getting into too much gory detail.

I'm working on some Flash games (as best I can call them). Player results stay recorded in an XML file which is written and modified by PHP scripts, called by Flash when game results are in. The method Flash uses to send this data to PHP is via GET or POST. Upon receiving the data, the PHP script reads and writes to an XML file that's been reserved for that user. Easy enough so far. No worries. Got that mastered. But here's the trick...

A script to access this PHP script must be in a visible directory in order for Flash to call it. In watered down terms, the user is calling it via Flash. But obviously I can't allow a user to DIRECTLY invoke the script. So how the heck can one decipher between Flash appropriately calling the script or a user trying to directly invoke what is basically the "gateway" to their stored XML info? I don't care so much as whether a user was able to see the XML, I just don't want illegal ability to write to it!

Unlike my past encounters wish such issues, I don't believe there's an environmental variable to assist. For instance, HTTP_REFERER (which you shouldn't depend on anyway) has a null value when Flash invokes these scripts (hence one of the reasons it's not reliable. LOL)

I'm sure this type of issue has been resolved somehow. But I can't seem to find any solutions online. Or maybe I'm trying to tackle this is a completely wrong way? Anyone ever had to deal with a similar issue?

The only thought I've had is somehow coming up with some kind of scrambled identifier that PHP can send to flash at the beginning of the script that is then translated before any send() data is given to the PHP XML writing script. But those can easily be hacked through id comparisons if one is so inclined to use a packet sniffer :)

I have briefly examined language specifications for VB9 and C#3. I am correct to think that only VB9 has Deep XML Support, Nested Extension Methods, Nullable Types, Relaxed Delegates, Strong “Duck Typing”? Also, it is the case that only C#3 has Lambda expressions, Implicitly Typed Arrays, and Expression Trees?
