I'm trying to get @copy-to to work. I've read the spec and the Oxygen Help topics, so I think I'm setting up the files correctly, but I still can't get this work (OT 1.8.5). <map> ... <topicgroup> <topicmeta> <navtitle>Setup</navtitle> </topicmeta> <topicref href="conTypesOfSoftwareUpdates.dita...

Omitting the XML declaration did the trick!

Thanks

I should mention that we are still using DITA-OT 1.8.5, not 2.x.

Our doc server configuration was recently updated to allow HTML files (.html) to parse PHP code. As a result, the html header, "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>" is causing http 500 errors. Is there a way to remove this header from the XHTML transform?

We had the same requirement to list all related links under the same heading. Here's what I did to create the desired results. I only spent a couple of hours on this, so I'm sure this method can be improved upon by more expert XSLT developers. I created a new rel-links.myplugin.xsl file with the fol...

Hi Radu, I'll send the screenshots to the email provided. Yes, we do use a CCMS (SDL to be exact). As a side note, their plugin only works with x32-bit version of 17, not 18.x x64-bit version of Oxygen. Even after uninstalling their plugin, and uninstalling and reinstalling 18.1 x64-bit of Oxygen Ed...

I am trying to figure out why my conref preview is not working. I have the option set to Display Referenced Content (Preferences/Editor/Edit Modes/Author), but all I'm seeing is the source tag, not the preview of the referenced content (conref). Is there something that I'm missing? Other writers in ...

I'm trying to figure out how I can exclude the HTML files in my XHTML/JavaHelp ouput that are not included in the TOC/bookmap. For some reason files that are not in the bookmap/ditamaps are included in the output folder, which is then picked up by the search indexer. I'd like to have the OT exclude ...

Thanks for this plugin! This is exactly what I was looking for. I tested on OT 1.8.4 and it works fine. It's also faster. Using the code above, it took 22 minutes to create a 800-page Admin Guide. With the plugin, it took only 7 minutes!

Thanks for this exchange of information. I couldn't follow the DITA user's group thread on this topic with its 46 replies. The question that I have is, How do I start numbering at Chapter 1. Currently, the numbering starts at the first topic within the bookmap and Preface, so in my case, Chapter 1 i...

I'm processing a number of files using an XSL document and I've discovered that a few of the files are not valid. When open them (using the document() function) I get the following error message and transform stops: Severity: fatal Description: Premature end of file. URL: http://www.saxonica.com/htm...

I'm using an adaptation of the /plugins/com.oxygenxml.webhelp/dita.bat script: Here's a snippet (sans the SET commands) - I've asked about the debug techniques that the SDL admin might provide. "%JVM_INSTALL_DIR%\bin\java"^ -Xmx512m^ -classpath^ "%DITA_OT_INSTALL_DIR%\tools\ant\lib\an...

I'm migrating our WebHelp plugin (and license) to our new CCMS provider. As I'm troubleshooting the transition problems, the batch file simply hangs on the "%JVM_INSTALL_DIR%\bin\java"^ ... command. I can't "see" what's going on under the covers so to speak. Does the OT or WebHel...

I'm following up on this OP. I've created a number of Code Templates and they work great. What we would like to do now is to distribute them to our team of writers in an effective manner. I have exported the preference file and edited it to only include the code templates that I have created. Our wr...

Sorry for not being specific. Yes, this is for WebHelp using DITA sources using version 17.1 Oxygen, WebHelp version is 15.1

In a recent accessibility audit someone had noticed that our toc.html, index.html, and toc.htm files are missing the xml:lang="en-us" lang="en-us" header. This information is present in the topic files, however.

How do I get this xml:lang/lang added to these files?

I know that I'm responding to a very old post, but the subject matter is relevant today. We are using Oxygen 17.1 and have a need for our writers to insert GUID as target IDs for our conrefs. Our developer suggested that we access an external site to generate unique GUID values, copy the value, and ...

When I add a new topic reference (from the Insert Reference [topic reference] dialog) and select my file, I can't figure out how to also grab the target topicID of the file. The results in the topicref, look like this: <topicref format="dita" type="task" href="taskCreateNewU...

Our tech pubs group is very interested in applying the responsive table reflow feature of the JQuery framework. Are there any plans to support table reflow in a future release of the WebHelp plugin? Here's a link that describes what I'm referring to: http://demos.jquerymobile.com/1.3.0-beta.1/docs/t...

Hi, In Oxygen 16.1 there was an option called: Check for duplicate element IDs within a topic we removed that option because the specification states something like: http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.2/os/spec/archSpec/id.html Thus, within a single XML document containing multiple peer or nested t...

We have a situation where our IDs are created by the author. We were using anothe editor that did not automatically add the IDs, so it is possible, if the author didn't check the document for duplicate IDs, that there would be duplicates within the topic. Duplicate IDs are a problem if we are creati...

Cool. This works well.

However, the context menu for inserting a new <li> element still contains <li/> code without the <p/> code.

Where do I edit the context menu items?

I'd like to have the editor automatically add a <p> tag inside the <li> elements of my unordered lists <ol>. Is this possible in Oxygen without manipulating the DTD? For example, <ul> <li><p/></li> ... </ul> Currently, adding a new <li> tags omit the <p> tag. Thanks for the input.

I have my bookmap frontmatter set for tablelist and figurelist, but the WebHelp output does not generate these lists. Do you have any reason why these lists are not being created? Here's a snippet from the taskbook.ditamap sample file: <frontmatter> <booklists> <toc/> <figurelist/> <tablelist/> </bo...

We recently moved to Oxygen Author as our preferred editor after using ArborText Editor (AE) for a number of years. A couple of things that I like about AE is the capability to run macros from the embedded command line (located at the bottom of the editor.) The other thing that I like is that our IA...

I'm trying to troubleshoot why our xrefs that contain website URLs are coming up as <a href="" .... > in our webhelp-mobile output. Can someone direct me to the *.XSL file that I need to check in the plugin? We've made substantial customizations to the plugin and I need to know where to st...

Thank you for the informative explanation. This feature is working now as expected.

I've implemented this update, but how to I test for a specific $transtype? I'd like to restrict this change to only webhelp-mobile transtypes. I've tried adding <xsl:param name="TRANSTYPE"/> to the tocDita.xsl file, but it doesn't seem to work. For example, <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test=&quo...

Thanks!

It makes perfect sense now that I see the solution! This works great.

Thanks for the explanation.

Unfortunately, I still can't figure out how to get the title of the first topic title to display in the top banner of the output. Can you help with this?
