Dear List,
In my continuing effort to improve my ConTeXt skills I thought I would
have a look at XML and ConTeXt. Note: I have no XML skills but, "in for
a penny, in for a pound", as they say over here. I started by looking at
the very first example on page 5 of "Dealing with XML in ConTeXt mkiv"
and straight away hit a problem. There is a typo in the first line of
the XML file which I corrected:
<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes?>
should be
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
However when I ran the file using the tex file it only produced a 3 page
pdf with a contents page and 2 title pages and no other text.
Here is the XML file which is the similar to the one on page 5 but with
two sections rather than one:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<document>
<section>
<title>Some title</title>
<content>
<p>a paragraph of text</p>
<p>another paragraph of text</p>
</content>
</section>
<section>
<title>Another title</title>
<content>
<p>a paragraph of text</p>
<p>another paragraph of text</p>
</content>
</section>
</document>
The TeX file is cut and pasted from pages 5 and 6 of xml-mkiv.pdf:
\startxmlsetups xml:demo:base
\xmlsetsetup{#1}{document|section|p|itemize|item}{xml:demo:*}
\stopxmlsetups
\xmlregisterdocumentsetup{demo}{xml:demo:base}
\startxmlsetups xml:demo:document
\starttitle[title={Contents}]
\placelist[chapter]
\stoptitle
\xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups
\startxmlsetups xml:demo:section
\startchapter[title=\xmlfirst{#1}{/title}]
\xmlfirst{#1}{/content}
\stopchapter
\stopxmlsetups
\startxmlsetups xml:demo:p
\xmlflush{#1}\endgraf
\stopxmlsetups
\xmlprocessfile{demo}{demo.xml}{}
This seemed such a simple example and I'm a bit perplexed as to why it
did not work. Can somebody explain why no paragraphs are showing up? I'm
using:
ConTeXt ver: 2018.04.04 00:51 MKIV beta fmt: 2018.6.2 int: english/english
LuaTeX, Version 1.07.0 (TeX Live 2018)
Thanks and Best Wishes

Aah yes, how silly of me to forget to add \starttext... \stoptext!
Thanks for your help.
