Hi Andrew. This isn't the best way to ask a question on CodeProject. What you'll want to do instead is try out your code and if it isn't working the way you expect or want, ask a specific question that targets what is going wrong (for example, it's better for volunteers to read through four lines of code that target where you think the problem is, rather than go through a full dump of code... and if you make it easier for volunteers to help you, they will!)
[EDIT] - oh, and it's never a good idea to use "Help" for the subject line. Everyone already knows you're looking for help, otherwise you wouldn't be posting here. A subject line that helps focus on the specific question you have in mind is much better and easier for volunteers to work with.

Everytime I debug the project and when the client appear the XML document that I want to appear doesn't appear on screen for some reason. I get no error in the error list and thats why I have asked you guy's.

Try using the debugger. Put a breakpoint on the first "Console.WriteLine" statement, then examine program variables and single step through the code to try and discover where you are going wrong.
|
|

Well I downloaded your code and it works fine. EXCEPT, this is a WinForms application and you are displaying the information via Console.WriteLine so all the output is going to the console output window rather than being displayed in your windows form.
I would suggest that you spend some more time learning how to use WinForms applications before proceeding further.

I have a large xml document and I am extracting out individual nodes from it. I don't want any manipulation.
its like
start-large
start-small
.
.
close-small
start-small
.
.
close-small
and so on.
It works fine if I do.
XmlDocument xmlDoc= new XmlDocument();
xmlDoc.Load(xr.ReadSubtree());
xmlDoc.Save("c:\\one.xml");
But for the following the XMl document I get it messed up.
XmlTextWriter xw = new XmlTextWriter("C:\\two.xml", null);
xw.WriteNode(xr.ReadSubtree(), true);
I get errors like "end element missing" or "not properly closed".
What am I doing wrong in case of text writer? xr is the xmltextReader which is reading the large file.
Your help is appreciated.

I thought the Problem was on C# side , while troubleshooting i came to the SP and found that the execution of the sp is a problem.

I might be missing something but you appear to have your parameters the wrong way around, 'EXAM' should be after the XML string not before.

I want to write a web application (application A) containing XML file .
This web application will be invoked from an HTTP request (from another application - application B) .
Application A should then send the XML file to Application B and return back to Application A with returned data .
My first task is how do I create the XML - But I'm not sure how I go about doing it ???
using ASP.net???

I am not clear. You are asking about creating XML but you didn't told what sort of data actually XML file will contain. I mean this is this file will be some serialized form of an object used for message passing or it could contain any data that you want to upload. Any how if you do have the XML file and want to post it webapplication you will need to make use of HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse. First create some generic handler in you web app and then create and post XML file contents via HttpWebRequest. Process contents in handler and return some suitable desired response. For example codes try googling or use code project search for "Posting Data via HttpWebRequest" keyword.

A little more context would help.
Are you familiar with XML? Have you worked with XML before?

Hi All,
I have an simple xml file for which I generated an xsd file using Altova XMLSpy tool.
As I wanted the end user who makes the xml entry to enter an unique ID which is an attribute of one of the elements. I modified the generated xsd file to accomodate this rule by including "xs:unique" node and entered valid values(i believe)but to no avail.
Below is my xml file.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<wwdfdb:DDB xmlns:wwdfdb="http://www.xybec.com/ns/wwdfdb" version="1.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.xybec.com/ns/wwdfdb Sample.xsd">

<wwdfdb:Num id="3021">
<wwdfdb:Ver>1.0.0.1</wwdfdb:Ver>
<wwdfdb:Status>InUse</wwdfdb:Status>
</wwdfdb:Num>
</wwdfdb:MyList>
</wwdfdb:DDB>
Below is the xsd file for the xml file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
</xs:attribute>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>
Plese note that I have included the 'xs:unique' element in the xsd file above to enforce the rule above but to no avail.
Could somebody correct me and guide such that I can enforce an rule in xsd such that any new block added in the xml file should have an unqiue id.
|
|
|
|
|
In xmllint (libxml2's standalone app), I needed to add an explicit namespace specification for the elements in the unique spec:
<xs:unique name="MyUniqueID" xmlns:wwdfdb="http://www.xybec.com/ns/wwdfdb" >
<xs:selector xpath="wwdfdb:Num"/>
<xs:field xpath="@id"/>
</xs:unique>
That did the right thing (validating uniqueness, rejecting sameness) in the limited testing I did!

I suspect you're running foul of the default behaviour of XSL, which passes through all tags unchanged unless you say otherwise. Add a root element template that just processes what you want, like I've put in here?
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version = "1.0"
xmlns:xsl = "http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements = "Report"/>
<big> <xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates select="//Record"/>
</xsl:template></big>
<xsl:template match="Record">
<text>
</text>
<xsl:text/><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(Record)"/><xsl:text/>
<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(DateTime)"/>,<xsl:text/>
<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(PointName)"/>,<xsl:text/>
<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(PointValue)"/>,<xsl:text/>
<text>
</text>
<xsl:text disable-output-escaping = "yes" >
</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I'm presuming the use of DateTime, PointTime and PointValue in your XSL is a typo?

Hi all,
I will be involved in a project where I must translate multiple EDI formats into XML and vice versa? Rather than code all this which I suspect will be impossible as I will be constantly hit with new formats, I was thinking that my app should load an XSLT map with the rules for the translation. I can then create custom XSLT maps on demand. Now my questions before I start:
1. Looking on the web, it seems all articles on XSLT are now quite old so I am wondering if this technology has been superseded in .NET? If so, by what?
2. If I should use XSLT, what would be the best tools to create the maps? I think hand coding will be tough/a bore. By looking the on the web, it seems Stylus Studio is possibly the way to go?
I'm not really ridged in my thoughts here so happy if I need to go off in another direction.
Many thanks for any advice.

As long as the EDI is an XML format or can be read into an XMl DOM using a custom XML reader, I'd say it's a splendid idea. Declarative programming - lovely!

Don't think so.

Stylus Studio certainly seems to have strong EDI and XSLT support (looking at their website). Looks good!
I've always hand-coded my XSLT, but I've tended to do more involved stuff than mapping data formats, which has required some slightly out of the ordinary XSLT - it's been closer to functional programming thatn data mapping  .

Hi Experts,
Has anyone tried getting Infopath generated XML file to work on the web and vice versa?
Someone mention using XForms and I am trying to learn how to work with that.
Also, how can this be implemented using php?
Thanks in advance.

I'll do a refresher on Infopath. It was interconnected with something uniquely Microsoft, which was why I had to reject it. Can't remember more off-hand. 
I did a project in XForms. It works, but only in certain browsers. I used a FF add-in, which worked fine. I also tried XSmiles...less stable, but may be better now.
It's worth the effort to understand XForms!!! It's GORGEOUS in it's simplicity. Data and presentation are separate. You're able to do more with XForms than you ever could with XHTML & HTML (multiple submssions and types of submissions, locally or on a server and so on).
Here's a header code sample from my project. You'll see the submission types and the differences I talked about:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:xf="http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms"<br />
xmlns:xmml="http://www.myDataModel/xmml"><br />
<head><br />
<title>Shopping List</title><br />
<xf:model id="default" ><br />
<xf:instance><br />
<xmml:data><br />
<xmml:storeName></xmml:storeName><br />
<xmml:productChoice></xmml:productChoice> <br />
</xmml:data><br />
</xf:instance><br />
<xf:submission id="clientList" action="ClientList.xml" <br />
method="put" /><br />
<xf:submission id="tempList" action="file:///c:/tmp/ClientList.xml" <br />
method="put" replace="none"/><br />
<xf:submission id="reloadList" action="file:///c:/tmp/ClientList.xml" <br />
method="get" replace="instance"/><br />
</xf:model>
I've not tried XForms with php and my use is server context only. I only know that php wraps around HTML. HTML is wrapped around XForms.
XForms is still wild west territory. You'll learn as you go. It's worth it though. w3schools.com and their xforms tutorial is a good place to start. I ended up learning more advanced things from xsmiles and w3.org.
