Question

suppress graphics using compose_using_xsl()?

Is there a parameter that will suppress graphics processing? My XSL
stylesheet is suppressing the graphic element but PE/Editor are still
creating the graphics folder and populating it even thought it's not
referenced by the resulting XML.

    Hi Paul--

    Try adding this to the params[] array you pass to compose::compose_using_xsl():

    params["dontCopyGraphics"]=1

    (or if that doesn't work, try "true" instead of 1).

    Thanks, Clay. That worked. I had found and tried dontDownloadGraphics, but
    that didn't do anything (well, with respect to the folder/graphics I'm
    trying to suppress). FWIW, the correct syntax is "true". Or, more
    completely (but omitting the stylesheet and output params):

    $myparams["dontCopyGraphics"] = "true";
    compose::compose_using_xsl($doc, $myparams)

    I should have bought you more drinks in Anaheim.

    Interesting development. From a "leaving a mess" perspective this is
    working. However, I just noticed that the folder is appearing and
    disappearing during composition. (I haven't figured out how to watch for
    the file(s) themselves. I might need a bigger test file, more graphics,
    and/or bigger graphics to do that.) I hope it's just the folder and not the
    files, though. Otherwise the performance hit will remain ...

    And yes, definitely next year. Budget faeries willing.
