Hello all,
This is my first time using a maling list so if I make mistakes let me
know. I have subscribed because I am in need of your help. I have
taken over managing a Debian box (ver 1.16.2) that is running Apache
(ver 1.3.26) and we use AxKit. Since it was set up before I was put in
charge I have been able to figure out what I need to do by looking at
other taglib files, xsp's and xsl's to get it done. I will be the first
to admit that I don't understand all of it fully but I understand it
enough to get what I need done. Untill now.
Basically we need to generated pdf's on the fly. From the research I've
done I tried AxPoint which I got working but it didn't generated a 1
page poster like we needed. I looked at FOP and HTMLdoc but then I came
across PassiveTeX which seems to say it will do what I need it to if I
can figure out how to get it to work. All the examples I have seen
involve using command lines to generate a pdf from a fo file. But what
i need is for someone to go to passive.xsp or passive.fo with their web
browser and it generates a pdf. Which will be changed daily by
information it draws from a PostgreSQL database. Is PassiveTeX the tool
I should use or is the something else that is better suited? If it is
does anyone have some simple xsp fo xsl files I could look at? I'm not
asking for anyone to do my work but a few simple files I could look
through would be greatly appreciated.
Aaron
Here is what I have so far and please feel free to laugh:)
passive.xsp
<?xml-stylesheet href="NULL" type="application/x-xsp"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="/passive.xsl" type="text/xslfo"?>
<xsp:page xmlns:xsp="http://www.apache.org/xsp/core/v1";>
<text>Open Sesame</text>
</xsp:page>
passive.xsl -- Not even close to being right
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:xsp="http://www.apache.org/xsp/core/v1";>
<xsl:output method="pdf"/>
<xsl:template match="text">
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
httpd.conf I did add PassiveTeX to it
AxAddStyleMap application/x-xsp Apache::AxKit::Language::XSP
AxAddStyleMap text/xsl Apache::AxKit::Language::LibXSLT
AxAddStyleMap application/xslfo Apache::AxKit::Language::PassiveTeX
