Not to mention I would claim it was derived work if it the overview is simply added to my XSLT example... that is if it was advanced enough to be protected by copyright (or similar law) in the first place... which it isn't, and neither will be be simply because the overview is added. But maybe he just want to reserve the right to change it after he gets it, which is obviously OK. By the way, I seriously doubt Invelos has any right what so ever to prohibit creation of programs and utilities that work with the XML export. It is the commercial use of the actual data that requires approval, not programs that work on the data. | | | Regards

If I understand right, it is the enlargement of "lmoelleb" XSLT file, not a great effort. All the more unfriendly is the fact that there is no one can or want to make .... very unfortunate  |

| | Posted: | | | | The main reason I did the original XSLT for him was simply the usual developers "I wonder how PRC files are made in the first place". Now I know and I have other things to spend my time on. I didn't do it for the money, so he can keep them and spend them on an anger management course  To do the overview in a way I would have been happy with for my own use, I would have to replace the <i>, newlines etc with actual formatting - I know very well it can be done in XSLT but I would have to go looking for it, and to be honest I hate doing XSLT precisely because such a simply task requires so much code. And no, 15 euros simply isn't enough to make me spend my free time doing something I don't like... I see enough of this stuff at work. | | | Regards

THX mediadogg it work, unformatted text ..... but it is enough (Give me your PayPal ad ...) 2. For all (other) bleaters ... I think it unfriendly if i could help it but do not because i think it is simply .... If someone does not have time is it something else. 3. I am too stupid to go for XSLT |
