Hi all, An announcement about a new Oxygen plugin this morning from DeltaXML got me playing with track changes in Oxygen (which I didn't actually know existed). Oxygen tracks changes using processing instructions. It puts the deleted material as an attribute on an oxy_delete PI; and it puts added text between an oxy_insert_start and oxy_insert_end instruction. E.g. > <?oxy_delete author="deltaxml" timestamp="20110706T155159-0600" > content=" Ut ornare pretium velit, "?><?oxy_insert_start > author="deltaxml" timestamp="20110706T155159-0600"?> this is an > addition., <?oxy_insert_end?> I'd like to be able to show people changes for a journal I'm editing. It's the additions I'm having trouble imaging what to do about. This is presumably best understood as a version of Boundary marking with empty elements (http://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/NH.html#NHBM). I've no problem transforming the PIs to elements (anchor elements like addSpan... anchor in the latter class), it is what to do with them so they are useful as hooks for hanging style on is what I don't know. Let's assume for the moment that there would be no issues with well-formedness if we were to convert <?oxy_insert_start?>...<?oxy_insert_end?> to a single element like add. Presumably the same issue arises with all our span type markers. I've never had to style or transform them before. does anybody have any tips? I looked in the wiki and nothing seemed exactly what I was looking for. I appreciate the help! -dan -- *Daniel Paul O'Donnell, PhD Professor of English, University of Lethbridge <http://www.uleth.ca/> Co-President, Society for Digital Humanities/Société pour l'étude des médias interactifs <http://www.sdh-semi.org/> Co-Editor, /Digital Studies/Le champ numérique <http://www.digitalstudies.org/>/ Founding Editor, /Digital Medievalist <http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/journal>/ *
