Fehler beim Bearbeiten der Ressource 'file:///C:/WINNT/SM.XML'. Zeile 33, Position 29 Semicolon expected. Are there any special handlings for characters like these? Thx Stefan Re: XML with special characters MS le Roux25-Apr-02 4:31 MS le Roux 25-Apr-02 4:31  Try &amp; or &#38; if you want to show an & character in your output.

Could you please provide all sequences for all the five special characters (I think its five) because I don't know where to look for on the web. Thx a lot!

Raymond IE 6 appendChild HELL Christian Graus24-Apr-02 2:02 Christian Graus 24-Apr-02 2:02  I have some code I wrote ages ago, and now it won't run on my machine at work ( but it runs on everyone elses ). I have IE6 and we've found conversely that ome of my XSL *only* ran on my machine. The problem is when I have a list of nodes, all siblings, and I loop through them and use appendChild to cut and paste them into another document. It simply blows up. Any suggestions ?

Re: IE 6 appendChild HELL Christian Graus24-Apr-02 11:50 Christian Graus 24-Apr-02 11:50  I'll get it from work tomorrow. Basically it works on other machines but not on mine, and I *think* IE6 may have an influence. The thing is, the block of code that fails I wrote some code to look the same, and it worked. I worked late on Tuesday and I spent from 5 to 10:30 on this, then three more hours the next day and we dropped it in the end simply because it's only my machine that won't run it. Which means I can't run a central piece of code for the project, which I wrote. Christian The tragedy of cyberspace - that so much can travel so far, and yet mean so little.

Re: IE 6 appendChild HELL Christian Graus24-Apr-02 11:31 Christian Graus 24-Apr-02 11:31  We've installed the latest version of MSXML on all machines, but I believe that IE6 changes something in that regard.

Our problem is that HTML being parsed perfectly well in IE5 suddenly seems to miss items in listboxes when parsed by IE6. As i am currently doing some consulting away from our home office i am not able to view the source, but if my co-workers are still using my scripts then those list boxes are filled dynamically by traversing nodes in the DOM. If we could get this behaviour cathegorized as a genuine bug and not 'a new IE feature', then we could tell our customers to use IE5 while waiting for the next patch.

Re: IE 6 appendChild HELL Christian Graus16-May-02 1:07 Christian Graus 16-May-02 1:07  I am still able to traverse nodes, it's when I call appendChild, and then not always. I did a full reinstall, and we're fairly sure it's not related to IE6 ( although I've not reinstalled it ), but the general death of my machine.

Chistopher Duncan Author - The Career Programmer: Guerilla Tactics for an Imperfect World (Apress) Re: C++ msxml tutorials Todd.Harvey24-Apr-02 7:17 Todd.Harvey 24-Apr-02 7:17  you know, I've had so much trouble with path syntax and checking if GetNode type statements returned null or not, that I started putting together my own short list of XML "stuff", but it hasn't really evolved into a useful tutorial. The hardest thing for me is still that "I just want to get data out like it was Access or a *.ini file, or a flat file", and the XML DOM sometimes seems to make what should be easy , difficult. (once it works it is fantastic) Your tutorial was very helpful to me and my current project - I started out attempting something like what was in C++ Journal in the January issue , where I specify all the structs/variables for our project in XML, and then I generate the C++ code from that, I generate the C++ code in to read all the variables and populate the structs from the XML file, I change an MFC dialog on the fly to get or set variables in the data in my config screen. I started thinking at the beginning - here I have these different ways of formatting what is essentially the same data - I have C++ code, I have *.h include files, I need *.ini files, I need to edit my MFC dialog - why can't I just feed it all off the XML and use that to unify these various data structures? I got it working, but explaining it to our engineers has got me to back off from trying to force them to use the generating features. But it is still very handy to have C++ code plus the min/max validation data, the comments that explain what that variable is, the list of potential values, etc. all in one place. Someday somebody is going to make some money by providing a tool where we can specify data in XML, because when a guy creates a new variable, if he knows what the max/min values are to be, wouldn't be great if he could spell all that out in one place, and then it would be useable in his program, and all the other developers were doing the same thing, and multiple variables weren't created for the same purpose, etc. Oh well, sorry for the long text. I could not live without the tutorials at CodeGuru and CodeProject (at least as a Windows/MFC developer). Your tutorial was very easy to understand and helpful.

Displaying TIF files David Chamberlain17-Apr-02 3:25 David Chamberlain 17-Apr-02 3:25  I have an application that collects a bunch of data and stores relevant information in an XML file. A subset of the data is to be written to a CD-ROM, and a set of HTML pages are created with content customized from the contents of the XML file, to provide an easy user interface to the contents of the CD. The problem is that some of the data that is collected is stored in TIF files, with the filenames stored in the XML file. Using the HTML [a] tag with "href=img.jpg" makes a nice link so the jpg image is displayed, but this doesn't seem to work with TIF files. Can't Internet Explorer display tif files from within HTML? From my desktop, when I double click on a tif file, I get this "Imaging for Windows" application that displays the file. Well, that's alright, but how can I get that same thing to happen from my HTML link? How can I start an application with a specific file as an argument from within HTML? Only because these HTML files are being generated from the contents of the XML file did I think it appropriate to try this forum. Thanks, too, for all those who helped me get the XML file "formatted" so it could be seen in an editor. Dave "You can say that again." -- Dept. of Redundancy Dept. Re: Displaying TIF files Michael A.
