Subject: preserve-sdata? From: "Maltby, David G" <david.g.maltby@xxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 13 Sep 1999 08:05:22 -0700 |
Hello All - I am doing -tsgml transformations with OpenJade v1.2.1. I have set the preserve-sdata? characteristic to #t. Preserve-sdata is doing what I expect except in the one case where I am combining data from entries in a row into a sosofo. The relevant code from my style-sheet is: (element (EQUIP-REQUIRED TABLE TGROUP TBODY ROW) ;;; choices in the EQ dialog (make element gi: "choice" (make element gi: "text" attributes: (list (list "type" "PRE")) (sosofo-append ;;; ... need to reverse the order of the 1st and 2nd entries and ignore the 3rd ;;; firstEntry-text-data must start as the 45th char (literal (trunc-secondEntry-text-data)) ; Item description (literal (copy-string " " (- 45 (string-length (trunc-secondEntry-text-data))))) (literal (firstEntry-text-data)) ; Reference ) ) ;;;... more nested (make element ...)s ) ; end choice ) (define (trunc-secondEntry-text-data) (if (< (string-length (secondEntry-text-data)) 44) (secondEntry-text-data) (substring (secondEntry-text-data) 0 44))) (define (secondEntry-text-data) (data (select-elements (children (node-list-first (node-list-rest (select-elements (children (current-node)) "ENTRY")))) "TEXT"))) (define (firstEntry-text-data) (data (select-elements (children (node-list-first (select-elements (children (current-node)) "ENTRY"))) "TEXT"))) The following row from one of the source tables... <table frame="bottom" colsep="0" rowsep="0"> <tgroup cols="3" colsep="0" rowsep="0"> <!-- colspec and thead removed for brevity --> <tbody> <row> <entry colname="col1"><text>▿MIL-P-36792</text></entry> <entry colname="col2"><text>Alcohol Pad, Sterile</text></entry> <entry colname="col3"><text>□</text></entry> </row> <!-- more rows --> </tbody> </table> ... transforms to ... <TEXT TYPE="PRE">Alcohol Pad, Sterile ?MIL-P-36792</TEXT> In all other cases, sdata is preserved. I am reasonably confident that the (literal ) sosofo is doing what it says, it is literally writing out the string. However I can not come up with an idea on how to get the data from the table and form a sosofo given that the stuff after the space has to start a fixed number of characters from the beginning. Would something with (process-node-list) be a reasonable place to start?
