Hi Pablo (cc to the mailing list), sorry for the long delay; here's finally my detailed answer. I spent some time in revising the "AnyAllOptions" (any word, all words, phrase, ...), and I noticed that not all combinations delivered the expected scoring results. The issue should now be solved; feel free to tell me if you need a jar build of the latest build; or check out the latest version from the repository. > Hello Christian, thanks por you prompt response. Enclosed I > send you the Comuni file for Italy, that we use to perform the math of > others 32000, with the final purpose of validate its. > […] Thanks for reporting on your usage scenario. One way to speed up your queries might be to create a full-text index (note, however, that the AnyAllOptions are not supported by the index). The improved performance gain after the first call, which you observed, might be due to the caching of results. To get better performance, I'd recommend to switch to the client/server architecture of BaseX. Apart from that, it's difficult to give you general guidelines on how to handle your amounts of data. Some questions might have to be answered first, such as… – do you plan to store the data and perform repeated queries, or will you just process it once/on the fly? – what's the total size of your XML documents? how many documents/XML snippets will you look at? Hope this helps, Christian

Actually, no. Your previous email was pure genius and worked beautifully. Thank you very much! My base file for starting up the db now looks like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE content [ <!ENTITY % HTMLlat1 SYSTEM "file:///var/www/xxx/content/entities/xhtml-lat1.ent"> %HTMLlat1; <!ENTITY % HTMLsymbol SYSTEM "file:///var/www/xxx/content/entities/xhtml-symbol.ent"> %HTMLsymbol; <!ENTITY % HTMLspecial SYSTEM "file:///var/www/xxx/content/entities/xhtml-special.ent"> %HTMLspecial; ]> <data/> I create the DB thus: session.execute("CREATE DATABASE data /var/www/xxx/data.xml") session.execute("CREATE INDEX TEXT") session.execute("CREATE INDEX FULLTEXT") session.execute("CREATE INDEX ATTRIBUTE") I open it like this: session.execute("SET CHOP off") session.execute("SET INTPARSE on") session.execute("SET PATHINDEX on") session.execute("SET TEXTINDEX on") session.execute("SET ATTRINDEX on") session.execute("SET FTINDEX on") session.execute("SET WILDCARDS on") session.execute("SET DIACRITICS on") Now I find that I can insert the output from TinyMCE like this: insert node <remark id='1'> <name>My Remark</name> <content>  Does  —  this  —  work? </content> </remark> into /data/remarks And it works perfectly!

Given the new site search facility, this knowledge will be discoverable in eternity. Amen. Patching TinyMCE's output with a DOCTYPE declaration with an internal subset might be a challenge, too. There must be a configuration option that will tell TinyMCE to serialize numerical entities. It turns out that they actually put some effort in creating the named entities: see the list on [1]. Indeed, there is such an option: [2] So you'll have to find out where tinyMCE.init() is called (if nowhere then maybe just add this call in a script tag on the page that invokes TinyMCE?

Parsing entities
by Charles F. Munat 28 Jan '11

28 Jan '11

I'm having trouble using XHTML generated by TinyMCE in a BaseX database. I get the error: The entity "nbsp" was referenced, but not declared. OK, I understand that it doesn't parse entities automatically. I need to add a DTD. So I have a setup like this: In a file called catalog.xml: <?xml version="1.0"?> <catalog prefer="system" xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog"> <rewriteSystem systemIdStartString="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/" rewritePrefix="file:///var/www/xxx/content/dtds/" /> </catalog> In /var/www/xxx/content/dtds/ I have a file called xhtml1-strict.dtd which is exactly what it says it is (downloaded from the W3C). Now I need to add the DOCTYPE to my database. But how? I create this database via a web interface using Vaadin (a bunch of forms, tables, etc. Then I just do XQuery inserts, deletes, etc. There are no XML documents. It's all done piecemeal. My root node is <data>. Some of my nodes have a <content> node that contains XHTML: <data> <remarks> <remark id='1'> <name>Test Remark</name> <content> This contains a   non-breaking space! </content> </remark> </remarks> </data> How do I add the DTD? How do I indicate that it should be applied to the contents of the <content> node only? How can I do that without adding namespaces to all the XHTML tags? Can anyone provide a brief example? By the way, when I connect to the database I do this: val session = new ClientSession("localhost", 1984, "admin", "x") session.setOutputStream(System.out) session.execute("SET CATFILE /var/www/xxx/catalog.xml") session.execute("SET CHOP off") session.execute("SET INTPARSE on") session.execute("SET ENTITY on") session.execute("SET PATHINDEX on") session.execute("SET TEXTINDEX on") session.execute("SET ATTRINDEX on") session.execute("SET FTINDEX on") session.execute("SET WILDCARDS on") session.execute("SET DIACRITICS on") session.execute("INFO") Thanks!

BaseX in Cocoon?
by Joachim Wackerow 26 Jan '11

26 Jan '11

Hello, Does anybody has experience in using BaseX in the Cocoon framework? Currently I'm using eXist with Cocoon (by the XML:DB protocol). I would be interested to use BaseX with Cocoon. Now I'm wondering if anybody tried this and can give me some hints.

Options to convert coordinates from S-JTSK to WGS84 by XQuery
by Jan Vlčinský (CAD) 26 Jan '11

26 Jan '11

Hi I am facing problem, that my XML data have coordinates in system S-JTSK (used a lot for area of Czech Republic) and resulting data must be in WGS84, as they will be used by Google Maps. Be sure, that the conversion is not trivial task (the other way is simpler, but S-JTSK to WGS84 is well known complexity) - so I am not sure, if writing complete conversion code by XQuery function itself is feasible. I can try do some conversion by other tools before I insert the XML or after I create resulting data - but elegant solution would accomplish this by XQuery. I know, that there are Java libs available for this (like GeoTools - http://geotools.org/) My question is: - is there any option to add more XQuery methods/functions written in Java to BaseX? Like the conversion function for coordinates? - It would go: add some JAR into class path - register it somehow and then be able to use it. - optionally writing some interface, which would make the jar available to BaseX XQuery processing. Any ideas what to do with my crazy wishes? With best regards Jan
