Oxygen XML Forum

oXygen can't (readily) WYSIWYG-edit its own home page http://www.oXygenXML.com

See why important and the details and some consequences.

Hello,

The first remark is that an XHTML document can be edited in Author (WYSIWYG-like) mode even if it has validation errors as in the document that I created by saving the Oxygen homepage from a Web browser. If there are validation errors but no well-formedness errors the document can be edited in Author mode using the predefined document type for XHTML documents.

You listed some well-formedness errors (The element type "link" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</link>", The element type "img" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</img>", etc) which I do not get when validating it in Oxygen. Are you sure you saved the homepage as an XHTML document?

The properties text-indent and list-style-position are not supported.

Starting with version 10.3 which will be released in a week the Toggle Comment action will handle nested comments correctly.

Anyway we will fix the XHTML validation errors in the pages of the Oxygen website. The website pages are generated automatically in Oxygen from a base XML document as you can read in the small print at the bottom of each page.

You can open directly the page http://www.oxygenxml.com/ into the editor by using the Open URL action from the File menu. In this case you will get exactly the content of the page.

As Sorin mentioned, our website is not edited as individual XHTML files. All the pages are generated using XSLT from a single master XML document. The master document is indeed edited using oXygen in the Author visual editing mode.

Many regards,
Dan
