How to strip out character references inserted by Diazo into text nodes - plone

I'm using plone.app.theming 1.0b5 and Plone 4.1 rc3. Our Diazo rules contain an number of external content includes and we're using one such include to insert Google Analytics script into the result:
<append theme="/html/head" content="/html/head/script"
href="##standard-page-elements" />
Unfortunately the script tag from the view is being mangled during the transform such that any carriage returns are converted to character references (
)
This is due to the way lxml serializes and deserializes (see this Plone bug report).
I'd like a work around in the meantime but can't figure out a Diazo rule that would strip these references out.

As noted above:
The bug has been fixed in the trunk of Diazo (thanks Laurence) so I no longer need to do this. I didn't manage to figure it out: it doesn't seem to me you can alter external content through Diazo, only the main content.

How to stop Diazo from stripping whitespace in Plone?

Plone 4.1.7
plone.app.theming 1.0
I found this question which is similar to my question except this person wants to do the opposite: remove spaces and carriage returns from Plone content with Diazo(minimizing html code)
I want Diazo to stop stripping out whitespace, as it's stripping out a lot of it that is needed for formatting. This seems to be the case even if my rules.xml is empty - just enabling a theme seems to do it, rather than it being an aspect of a particular theme.
Turning the theme on/off also causes a bug on only one particular page (a view named '##upload') where all of the classes in the <body> tag are stripped out. Unsure if that is at all related, although I do know it's Diazo causing it.
Edit: Some further info: I don't have the non-themed side blocked by host name in the control panel, but rather by use of the <notheme> tag in rules.xml. I have to do this because the non-themed side is on the same domain as the themed side.

Load resources in gadgets in Jira

I've made an Add-on which is a custom field.
The style of the text in the field changes depending on the properties of an issue.
I check which style should the text have in the .java file and I pass the html class in a variable called $indicator to the velocity template:
#if( ${value} )
<span class="$indicator">${value}</span>
#end
It works perfect everywhere but in gadgets. When I add this field to a table showing issues in a dashboard, the html code is correct, but it doesn't find the css resource. This is because gadgets are inside an iframe.
How can I make the iframe have a reference to the stylesheet?
You did not say exactly which gadget you were using, but try adding the following context within your <web-resource> module:
<context>jira.webresources:issue-table</context>
The above should work for at least Assigned to Me, Filter Results, In Progress, Voted, and Watched in JIRA 6.1+.
If that does not work, you might also try:
<context>com.atlassian.jira.gadgets:common-lite</context>
If that general context doesn't work, you can look for which exact contexts are #requireContext'ed by the specific gadget you are trying to use, and then make sure that your web-resource is listed in that context. You can figure this out by looking at the gadget's XML and then searching for the #requireContext. (You can find the gadget XMLs inside $JIRA_DATA/plugins/.osgi-plugins/transformed-plugins/jira-gadgets-plugin-*.jar)
Starting with JIRA 7 the Answer of Scott Dudley is no longer working. #requireContext was replaced with a #requireResource within the Atlassian sources of this gadget.
As it affects our plugin, I created a Improvement Request to make that possible again

Creating custom layouts for Images in page content TYPO3 6

Typo3 provides option to add multiple images to a page content, but all the images are wrapped under some default <div> tags. I want these images to be wrapped under <ul> and <li> tags instead and giving my own custom CSS ids and classes to it.
There are not many resources on TYPO3 for me to approach this issue. Can TYPO3 allow to use custom tags for the page content elements?
UPDATE
From Jost's answer was able to get my images displayed, but how do I split the image details?
My each image will have title, alt-text, image-path and image-link. Now, using TypoScript how do I retrieve this, because each details has to go in separate tags.
Check the TypoScript object browser. There you will find the object tt_content, which contains the rendering definitions for content elements. The rendering definition for images is found at tt_content.image.20, for example
tt_content.image.20.imageStdWrap.dataWrap = <div class="csc-textpic-imagewrap" style="width:{register:totalwidth}px;"> | </div>
The default definitions given there are usually provided by the static TypoScript of CSS-styled-content. You can overwrite them in your own TS, but when updating to a newer TYPO3-version, the default template may change, which could result in additional wrappers.
Update
Most content rendering in TYPO3 is defined in the TypoScript object tt_content. You can browse all TS-objects that will be used on a page by selecting the "Template" module and the page in question, and then choose "TypoScript Object Browser" in the selectbox at the top of the window. To understand what that stuff means, knowledge of TypoScript is necessary (Tutorial, Reference).
You can add your own TypoScript, which may override existing settings. You can do that in the Template-module too, but usually this is done by creating a file containing the script somewhere in the fileadmin folder and including it from the Template module.
The above enables you to edit the markup of the page. (Additional) CSS is usually defined in external files, that are included by a PAGE object (see the reference about that).
This post is a bit older but I want to add the following:
If you want to understand how the different content elements are wrapped, you may have a look into the css_styled_content extension. I assume that you have included the "Static Template (from extension)" in your main Typoscript template.
You can find the setup.txt here:
typo3/sysext/css_styled_content/static/setup.txt
There you´ll find the line Jost mentioned in line 860 (TYPO3 version 6.1), for example. And of course a lot of other definitions, too.
But check to read the documentation and tutorials on typo3.org.

How can we save multimedia components using external resource types if the URL doesn’t end in with a file extension?

We have a Tridion use case related to curated content where we are creating multimedia components for images associated with our content which are pointing to External resource types instead of uploaded resource types.
One of the issues we have run into with this use case is that despite explicitly setting the Multimedia Type for the resource, if the URL of the image has either a query string in it: http://cdn.hw.net/UploadService/1c8b7f28-bb12-4e02-b888-388fdff5836e.jpg?w=160&h=120&mode=crop&404=default or uses a ‘friendly url’: http://www.somewhere.com/images/myimage/ when we save the component, Tridion barfs with error messages similar to : ‘Invalid value for property 'Filename'. Unexpected file extension: jpg?w=160&h=120&mode=crop&404=default. Expecting: jpg,jpeg,jpe.’
So far, the only way we’ve been able to figure out to potentially get around this issue is to do something hacky like appending an extra query string parameter to the very end of the urls which end with the expected file extension: http://cdn.hw.net/UploadService/1c8b7f28-bb12-4e02-b888-388fdff5836e.jpg?w=160&h=120&mode=crop&404=default&ext=.jpg Obviously, this is not the best solution and in fact may not work for some images if the site they are being served from strictly validates the requested URL.
Does anyone have any ideas on how we can work around this issue?
Unfortunately I can't really think of an easy solution to this, since Tridion "detects" the Mime type by checking the file extension.
You could perhaps add it while saving and remove it when reading (via Event System)? Definitely a worthwhile enhancement request, to my knowledge this behavior has not been changed for the soon-coming Tridion 2013... See comment below, it has been changed for 2013.
+1 for Nuno's answer. Recognizing that the title of your question is specific to multimedia components, you may want to consider another approach which is to use normal Components, not Multimedia Components. You can create a normal component schema called something like "External Image" that has an External Url field to store your extentionless url.
Content authors will then include these images via regular component linking mechanisms in the Tridion GUI.
You will then need a custom link resolver TBB that will parse the Output item (via Regex) looking for any Tridion anchor tags <a tridion:href="tcm:x-y-z"> and for each one replace them with an <img src=...> tag where the src path would come from this linked component.
For an example of a similar approach, but with videos, and sample code for a custom link resolver TBB have a look at the code in the following post: http://www.tridiondeveloper.com/integration-sdl-tridion-jw-media-player.

How to disable header on frontpage of rst2pdf document?

I am generating some PDF's and I would like to disable the header on the frontpage. I know there are built-in templates in rst2pdf and one template is called coverPage but I don't seem to be able to get it to work.
The manual is saying you should use a
..raw:: pdf
PageBreak coverPage
statement but that will insert a empty before the coverpage, so how can I have a coverpage without a header and without using the oddeven directive (I want to use the same header on all remaining pages).
Thanks for your suggestions!
That's how you change the stylesheet after the cover page. You'll need to create a custom stylesheet that specifies what is the format of the first page and then change the style for the rest of document. Have a look at chapter 15 of the manual.
Note: current accepted answer contains broken link (linked website has gone).
The correct answer is simple:
1) In you style-file define:
pageSetup:
firstTemplate: coverPage
2) Then in your template, when you want to start using header/footer add:
..raw:: pdf
PageBreak cutePage
Make sure cutePage has set header/footer to true.
