[xsl] oXygen XSLT output setup issue
2018-05-15 21:31:07
Dear Friends,
This is actually an <oXygen/> support question, and I did send it to
them, but so far no response. About 1/4 of the students in my XML/XSLT
course are stuck on this point, so I am posting here in the event that
some of you might be using oXygen and have encountered this.
In earlier versions of oXygen (maybe versions 14 or 15 or so?), when one
opened up the XSLT output settings for the first time, an entry for
"xml-stylesheet processing instruction" would automatically be
generated, without the user needing to do any special setup (as seen in
this file: http://www.acmuller.net/xslt-oxygen1.jpg). But in recent
versions, this is no longer automatic, so we need to set it up manually.
This is too bad, because this is the primary way most of us who do TEI
want to use XSLT (rather than using the supplied TEI stylesheets). So
now, when we teach XSLT to beginners, we have to go through a
complicated setup process, that is difficult for students to carry out.
This is unfortunate.
So yesterday, I had to try to guide a rather large class on setting this
up manually (they are using oXygen 19, since this is the version I got
the license for). Many of them, beginners, couldn't follow my on-screen
instructions, so I had to sit down with the students one-by-one to set
it up. Having done this, however, XSLT output failed on about 30% of the
Mac machines. (The setup that worked on all of the Windows machines, and
most of the Macs, is shown in as seen in this file:
http://www.acmuller.net/xslt-oxygen2.jpg). For these Macs, the
transformation would run, but when the browser booted up (they were all
using Chrome), a blank page would appear, with the error message "File
Not Found". This is the first time over a period of about 10 years of
teaching with oXygen that I have encountered this.
It is possible that some change needs to be made in the filestring
variable of "${cfd}\${cfn}.html" on certain Mac machines? I was
thinking that perhaps we might be able to work around the problem by
replacing the variable string to something simple like "output.html" I
don't have the students' computers here at hand, so I'm going to try
that next class. If anyone has encountered this, and has any other
suggestions, I'd appreciate it.
Regards,
Chuck
