When we take a pathfield value in jsp, need to provide harcoded ".html" or ".pdf".
Is there any way to make pathfield generic, hence no need to provide hard coded extensions? So if a user selects .pdf it will display a pdf file and if user selects .html it will open a html file.
Not sure if there is a OOB way to do this. Alternatively, You can create a script/custom jstl tag which take path as input, load resource and find out resource type and generate path with correct extn as output.
Call this script from all your components which generate links.
Another option is you extend com.day.cq.rewriter.pipeline.RequestRewriter and in rewriteLink() function write your logic to set correct extn.

I'm trying to create separate templates for webpages with either a single or a double column structure. Currently my webpage only has one template, placed on the root page which is used by all its subpages.
However, I cannot find the template in myextension/Resources/Private/Templates as this folder is empty. Where is the template located in my extension and where should I add the alternative template?
I assume you use "fluid_styled_template"? Then the templates are in that respective core directory, in "Resources/Private".
If you want to manipulate them, copy them to your sitePackage into "Resources/Private/Extension/fluid_styled_content" (that at least is one of the recommended ways where to place it) and override the TypoScript that "fluid_stlyed_content" provides.
templateis not unique in TYPO3 context. we have:
typoscript records, maybe also as files which are included in a record or by PHP
HTML files, which are define a markup for parts of the website
they can be differed in
Marker-Templated. The old and less and less used kind with markers and subparts as placeholders for data defined in typoscript
Fluid templates. The modern kind with control structures and data objects
with the statemant
my webpage only has one template, placed on the root page
it is not clear what you mean:
records are defined in pages -> typoscript templates
maybe you mean in the root page a template is selected. that could mean HTML templates, probably fluid templates as the path myextension/Resources/Private/Templates matches the usual structure for fluid templates.
assuming fluid templates:
Templates are search in a list of folders. This list is managed in typoscript.
Any usage has it's own list and the list of your main/page template probably is at page.10.templatePaths. You can look for it in the TSOB (Typoscript Object browser)
If the list consists of one entry only you have only the basic config.
As the list of folders is consulted each time a template (,partial, layout) is accessed and only that file with matching name in the folder with highest priority is taken you can add your folders with higher numbers in the list so you do not need to change the original files (use copies in your folder to modify) or add files to the original folder (inside of other extensions).
So you need two things:
create your template file in an appropriate folder
(ext:myextension/Resources/Private/Templates sounds good)
and add this folder to the list of folders for these templates
(e.g. page.10.templatePaths.20 = EXT:myextension/Resources/Private/Templates)
I have been using the excellent python-docx package to read, modify, and write Microsoft Word files. The package supports extracting the text from each paragraph. It also allows accessing a paragraph a "run" at a time, where the run is a set of characters that have the same font information. Unfortunately, when you access a paragraph by runs, you lose the links, because the package does not support links. The package also does not support accessing change tracking information.
My problem is that I need to access change tracking information. Or, more specifically, I need to copy paragraphs that have change tracking indicated from one document to another.
I've tried doing this at the XML level. For example, this code snippet appends the contents of file1.docx to file2.docx:
from docx import Document
doc1 = Document("file1.docx")
doc2 = Document("file2.docx")
doc2.element.body.append(doc1.element.body)
doc2.save("file2-appended.docx")
When I try to open the file on my Mac for complicated files, I get this error:
But if I click OK, the contents are there. The manipulation also works without problem for very simple files.
What am I missing?
The .element attribute is really an "internal" interface and should be named ._element. In most other places I have named it that. What you're getting there is the root element of the document part. You can see what it is by calling:
print(doc2.element.xml)
That element has one and only one w:body element below it, which is what you get when with doc2.element.body (.xml will work on that too, btw, if you want to inspect that element).
What your code is doing is appending one body element at the end of another w:body element and thereby forming invalid XML. The WordprocessingML vocabulary is quite strict about what element can follow another and how many and so forth. The only surprise for me is that it actually sometimes works for you, I take it :)
If you want to manipulate the XML directly, which is what the ._element attribute is there for, you need to do it carefully, in view of the (complex) WordprocessingML XML Schema.
Unlike when you stick to the published API, there's no safety net once ._element (or .element) appears in your code.
Inside the body XML can be relationships to external document parts, like images and hyperlinks. These will only be valid within the document in which they appear. This might explain why some files can be repaired.
For word report generation, I am looking at binding XML to content controls to see if it is any easier than to use Word Interop and hardcode index reference to content controls to assign values to them.
However, I don't really understand how to do it.
My work flow is entering information in Excel and then generate an XML file to have content controls populated by XML, however, what I read is the other way round: Word Control Control Toolkit and descriptions where the XML is populated by user entering information in Word, and then programmer to unzip docx file to retrieve the XML file.
How can I populate content controls with XML?
There are samples on generating Word documents from Word templates, XML and data bound content controls # http://worddocgenerator.codeplex.com/
Set up the mapped content controls in the 'template' docx using the content control toolkit or similar. Do this using a sample XML file containing your Excel data.
Now you have that template document, at run time you can inject your XML file into it (ie replace the custom xml part it contains, with your instance data), in C# or Java or whatever.
When the user opens the document in Word 2007/2010, the information in the custom XML part will automatically be copied into the bound controls, and visible to the user.
Note that content control data binding doesn't easily support repeating data (eg populating table rows) in Word 2007/2010, though there are ways to do it.
In my wicket application i have 3-4 different packages say pack1,pack2 and so on .
In pack1 i have different html and java classes. I am validating the null check by setRequired(true) and getting the message from properties file.I am naming my properties file as Send.properties ... as i have Send.html and Send.java in pack1.In properties file i am mentioning like this
formname.field.Required=The ${label} is missing
I want to validate all the html fields which are present in different html pages of the same package (pack1)in one properties file say pack1.properties .So my question here is will one singe properties will be sufficient for one package where in all the validation will be taken care.
Yes, wicket first looks for the property in the properties file associated to the page, and then in the properties asociated to the package (and after that in parents packages...).
But, as long as I know the package properties file is called package.properties (independently of the package name).
What is the standard method for implementing a "wizard" using successive web forms?
I'm implementing a CGI that accepts several options, files, etc. But some of these options have dependencies to one another, and allow or require other options to be used.
For example, one type of object that needs to be initialized by the CGI can be created using:
two files of type X
two strings
one file of type Y
In my command line version, I look whether two files of type X, two strings, or one file of type Y is provided, and construct the object in the appropriate manner.
In my CGI, I'd like to do this using multiple pages or DHTML (perhaps a radio button that specifies which arguments the user wishes to provide; changing the radio button will change the form to the right).
Anyway, I have this situation for 3 main groups of arguments. I thought it would be pleasing to the user to create a 6 "page" wizard (think online dating):
Page 1:
"How would you like to specify your proteins of interest?"
radio button:
Two FASTA files
Prefix and suffix strings that match all of my proteins (and match only my proteins)
A text file containing the proteins
Page 2:
"Great! Please choose your (either 'fasta files', 'prefix and suffix strings', or 'text file')."
(appropriate web form)
Unfortunately, if the form is split over different pages, I'm not sure how the 3rd, 4th, etc. pages will know the location of the temporary folder created for the uploaded files from pages 1 and 2.
I'd really appreciate your advice; I have a good command line app, but I am having a difficult time making beautiful interface code that will do what I want. And I'd be shocked if there isn't a very easy standard way to do this with Django or some other framework; it just seems it must come up very frequently.
There's a wizard plugin for jQuery.

If you don't know jQuery, it is a javascript framework for doing DHTML.
