[xwiki-users] Programming Rights
by Robin Fernandes 19 Jun '06

19 Jun '06

Hi all, The precise role of "programming rights" is not clear to me. I realise it is used to prevent Groovy scripting (which can do all kinds of mischief like System.exit() :) ), but it also blocks a number of API functions. I can't quite see a pattern to the functions it blocks. This is a problem for me, because I have sometimes suggested a Velocity code snippet to a user but they could not execute it due to lack of rights. There has always been a workaround, but as an admin, I can't tell if I'm using functions which require the rights or not. Also, I'm currently having a hard time with a plugin, of which the main functionality executes fine when triggered from Velocity from a doc saved with programming rights, but falls over in all kinds of ways when I try to call it from a save notification implementation (in which the context's rights depend on the user saving the doc, I think). Regards, Robin.

$doc.linkedPages contains non-links
by THOMAS, BRIAN M (SBCSI) 16 Jun '06

16 Jun '06

I'm the XWiki bug man this week; got some time off from fighting fires. Here's another: I note that (at least) for pages with Javascript in their content, XWikiDocument.getLinkedPages() returns entries that are not XWiki links but subscript expressions from the Javascript code. This happens regardless of whether there is a {pre} tag surrounding the Javascript in the document. I suspect it's because there's just a simple regular expression search through the un-rendered content. Brian M. Thomas - Senior Technical Architect AT&T Services, Inc.

xwikidoc.xwd_fullname
by THOMAS, BRIAN M (SBCSI) 15 Jun '06

15 Jun '06

The xwikidoc table in the database has a column, xwd_fullname, which is not, as I suspected it to be, just an alias for xwd_web + '.' + xwd_name, but an actual column. The code, however, seems to ignore this field, at least when invoking the view command on it. Does this field actually have a purpose? If so, what? If it's for searching performance, could a database constraint be added to it so that its value is always correct? I suppose that I'll have to admit that the reason I've run into this is that I naively changed the field on one document, not realizing that it wasn't just a handy composite field. I don't remember all the details, but I do remember that a document with the old name still appeared to exist even though there was no row in the table with that value in the xwd_fullname column.

Help me escape!
by THOMAS, BRIAN M (SBCSI) 15 Jun '06

15 Jun '06

As a member of an organization whose name has an ampersand in it, I am pleased to say that I am discovering many of the ways that XML and HTML can choke on it. This is because as a developer, I thoroughly enjoy finding bugs (in other people's code). However, I am spending more time than I want (greater than zero) using my admin privileges to clean up after users who shouldn't have to worry about what kind of text they enter into their documents - in particular, they shouldn't have to know that every time they type the company name, it has to be AT&T. First the document headings in the RSS feeds caused readers to fail, then the CSS validator refuses even to look at a document, and now the Tomcat logfile is growing by dozens of megabytes per minute on a system with ten or fewer active users. All because somebody innocently entered "AT&T" somewhere in a document. I have found several methods for transforming text, such as $xwiki.getURLEncoded(String) and $doc.getEscapedContent() (which apparently hides the entire content of a document from Velocity, but not from Radeox). There is also the Javascript in some form documents that makes sure that accented characters don't get into document names. Nowhere, however, have I yet found a method that will generally escape things in user-entered text that will break XML parsing. Is there such a thing? I note several regular expressions in some of the config files for Radeox, etc; there ought - somewhere - to be a general method for doing this, n'est-ce pas? Brian M.

Hi, Could you help in these two issues? - change the logo at upper right corner on S5 slides? - modify the time so that event calendar shadow the correct local 'today'? Thanks. Wei-hsing +++++++++ Unfinished +++++++++++++ This is part of a user guide for using S5 presentation on XWiki. To change the upper right corner logo on S5 slides, you do: 1. design your own logo, upload it to photo album 2. copy the URL of the image for later use 3. to modifying the style of the presentation: go to presentation by clicking on presentations link (assume the presentation is already created) 4. don¡Št use the ¡¥here¡Š on this page, talking about the S5, for your css files, that leads to a general area¡K (sometimes you get error messages) 5. your templates are at http://YourXWiki.xwiki.com/xwiki/templates/s5header.vm 6. in the file, you will find a few css files, and one of them, pretty.css, is what specifying the logo at the corner http://YourXWiki.xwiki.com/xwiki/s5/ui2/pretty.css 7. I am not sure why the field ¡¥logo¡Š in the edit presentation page does not change logo as it should be (does it suppose to be doing that?) 8. in pretty.css, you will see this line body {background: #FFF url(../logo.gif) top right no-repeat; color: #000; font-size: 2em;} 9. you can copy the css file to your computer, modify it with the new logo url (from 2. above) 10. go to space preference of presentation, then what? Where do I attach the new css file? Where is the style field? 11. Is there a way to replace the old pretty.css? Is there a way to ask the s5header.vm to read a new pretty2.css file? -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: "jeremi joslin" <jeremi23(a)gmail.com> > Hi, > > I will be at the CISIS conference (http://www.cisis.com.cn/) next > week.

[xwiki-users] what is XWiki.XWikiGlobalRights
by Jeff Ousley 14 Jun '06

14 Jun '06

When setting up access rights for a space, in the access rights editor, there's always a line that reads "XWiki.XWikiGlobalRights". What does this represent? Is there a global rights setting somewhere? Also, is there any way to give all rights instead of specifying: view, edit, comment, admin I've also seen reference to a right called "programming". Does this exist? Are there others? Sorry for the barage of questions. Just trying to get my head around it all. -jeff
