Hello,

Thanks for your reply.

I have tried to achieve above mntioned functionality i.e. using following logic

1.have selected two ranges range1 and range2 where range1 points at start pont of the node and range2 points at the end pont at the node.
2. If elemnt can not be inserted at the selected pont I keep moving the range1 to next insertion
point inh the node by using following code

var nextNode =child.nextSibling;
//select insertion point before the node
rng1.SelectBeforeNode(nextNode);
child = nextNode;
this logic is working, but I would like to know if is there any API present in Xmetal to move range to the next insertion point in the current node

also could you please let me know how two ranges can be checked for equality?

Regards

Hello,

I can not provide the entire css file for some reasons,but I can assure you taht .css file is error free .

Following is the exact content of my css for the element

element:before {
content:url(D:imagebullet.jpg);
}
and with the above code image is properly visible in Xml document in Xmetal

but when I copy bullet.jpg where my .xac file is present and write
element:before {
content:url(bullet.jpg);
}
image is not visible instead an X is visible.

Could you please help me with this?

Hello,

Above solution is working if and only if the element can be inserted into the current insertion point , i.e
If my DTD has structure
!ELEMENT para (top, middle , bottom) > and suppose i have to insert element bottom and my current insertion point is  betwwn top and middle i.e.test1
(this is my current range)
.then according to canInsert api it throws false because as per the DTD bottom element can not be inserted at the current location
but my requirement is I have to check in entire para element whether  element bottom can
be inserted or not and if DTD allows bottom element to be inserted into para it should move to the
valid insertion point into para and insert there into the para element.

Could you please help me in determining how shall I go with it, finding whether particulr element can be inserted anywhere into the selected current node that element or not instead of that particular point.

Regards

Hello Derek,

As per the requirement i will be referring to the external .js file from common folder, and when i use it by Macro->add->Existing File-> and i select the file from the ommon folder but when i go by this method it copies that file itself in the project and this doesnt solve my problem of avoiding redundency.

Also wnen I try to implemet  your above mentioned method by providing external path of the file, i will have to create a new files in the project itself which will be having following code.

var strMyJScript = Application.FileToString(“path to file.js”);
eval(strMyJScript);

so this code would be there for the no. of file I have to call from external common folder for each project.

Ex. to call file1  callfile1
file2 callfile2

please suggest the solution.

Regards,

Hello ,

I am using Xmetal Author Enterprise 7.0 on Windows Explorer.

I can not provide the copy of the .ctm file though, but I have written above code only.

When I try to insert a specified element using ElementList (radiobutton Insert and I click Apply), It seems the element in not getting inserted in the normal view, but it is getting inserted in plain text view.

Thank you for your reply

I would like to know what regular expression pattern should I use to allow patern like this I need to validate the value in the attribute for a specific node.

these are some valid pattern, null is not allowed

125345 890750
124576 780645 365890
789958 976454 655588 694379

invalid patterns are

678956 786
678 569765 67

i.e 1st set of 6 decimal is mandatory and another 0 to any no. of set of decimal no separated by sapce
if the more than 0 sets are present then they should be separated by a space and each set have only 6 digits
