Hello, I am a newbie when it comes to ACL. Im looking to create a script that will grab all tags in a document with an certain attribute set to a certain value and then grab its contents witch will be a string of text, and then copy the text and place it in a tag I create like a list. Also if possible, I need to grab the context of where these tags are. For example: Say I have a document with chapters and sections. And within these chapters and sections i have a "highlight" tags. I would like to grab every "highlight" tag in the doc and put it in a list at the bottom of the document where the text in the tag and the chapter and section of where it is located and place it in the list at the end of the document. Any help would be very useful. Thanks!

If someone has already used the tag keeps can I get an explanation of how it works?I used :<rsrcdesc softkeepspage="yes" dfltlayoutconfig="rigid">....<e-i-c gi="row"> <charlist> <keeps keep="7" scope="page">....No difference in resultI want split line anywhereThank you for help

Hello masters!!Here I am again with a new question. I have a java object which constructs a tree(XML) since some elements of an Arbortext's document, starting with one OID and then walking throw next elements of the first OID until my desired XML was constructed, when I back to my acl code what I'm trying to do is to paste this content in other place inside the document, I've been trying to execute it using the 'insert_string -markup' option however it seems that the elements are not recognized, so, for example if I received from java the string: "<note> </note>" Arbortext show me an error telling me the "unexpected argument: /note>" message :'( And I'm pretty sure this is not an "out of context" error, since I've been checking my rules of insertion every moment 😄I don't know why is this happening? I suppose that try to insert some XML tags is not as simple as I thought..... however, if I use the insert_string command assigning directly the string... like this: (insert_

Hello experts!! 😃I'm creating one document using the "temp_name" and "open" command in ACL, however when I call a java function through a java object which I created in the same function where my file was created, I can not read content from my document. I saw that only when I close my Arbortext is when the document shows it's content. If I open the new document while my function is "active" and Arbortext is Open, there's no content inside. =(Does anybody know why is that? And how can I solve this issue?As always I really appreciate your time and support. Best Regards.Paulette Zorrilla

My oid_fu is weak. I can make oid_name() return "_pi" but I can't read thebreakpenalty attr. Is it a pseudo attr? I only asked that to sound smartbecause I still wouldn't be able to read it if I knew. LOL!Ultimately, I want to highlight all <para> tags green in my screen FOSI ifthey are in a row with a forced pagebreak. I have code that will do this inred for row profiling by just checking on our profiling attrs on row. I'mtrying to write a system-func I'll call from para context entry that willreturn "yes" if the row's first child is the forced table break PI.Happy to pursue another path to indicate a forced break if someone hasfound another way ...-- Paul Nagai

Hi AdeptersIt's been a while since I posted a question or answer but I continue to find this group an invaluable asset.We are finally moving to Arbortext Editor 6.0, but need to leave a few users behind at 5.3 because of 3rd-party software compatibility issues.We'll need to use floating licenses for both versions and the question came up if there are any known problems running the Flex and Elan license servers on the same server.Anyone running both without problems? Any references to Tech Support pages on this questions?Thanks,--JackJack KulasWeb/XML App DeveloperTechnical DataLSI, Inc.6111 Technology CourtJacksonville, FL 32221Jax Office-MWF (904) 317-7339Home Office-TTH (352) 219-4338Fax (904) 777-9275jkulas@lsijax.com<">mailto:jkulas@lsijax.com>www.lsijax.com

Does anyone know how to remove default cell padding in a gentable? If I insert a table in my SGML file and remove the top and bottom padding, I get this:<table><title></title><tgroup cols="2"><colspec colname="col1"><colspec colname="col2"><tbody><row><entry></entry><entry></entry></row><row><entry></entry><entry></entry></row></tbody></tgroup></table>but if I paste that into a usetext, I get unbalanced tag errors. I tried adding cbmarg="0.00pt" ctmarg="0.00pt" to the tgroup (and row, table, etc.) and that doesn't do anything. I wonder if this might be a DTD issue.

Hiya,I have copy, cut, and paste callbacks defined. I am successfully capturingall of the use-cases me and my testers have been able to think of exceptone.I can't capture the "paste" called when dragging, pressing Control, anddropping content. My copy callback fires. My paste callback does not.(There is some chance I am wrong about paste not firing ... maybe it'scopy. Using response() to debug program flow appears to affect buffers insome situations ... but I *think* it's the paste callback that isn'tbehaving.)Anyhow, has anyone worked through this sort of malarky before? Got any tips?-- Paul Nagai

I searched for anyone else discussing this topic but did not find anything.Most of us in our group of Arbortext Editor V5.4 M040 users are trying to use the colors to set different types content apart such as tag font color, generated text, text entity color (especially important to us), and object boundary color. However, the only colors that appear are black for regular text and the gen text color. Any clues what might be keeping the others for showing?Thanks,John
