Hi Matt, Do the links have to be in WYSIWYG fields or can they be generated by a rendering? If in WYSIWYG, I suppose it's possible to have the rendering parse...
I'm trying to use the Service Mark special character ℠ (in html and text fields) but Sitecore seems to want to make it a square. Is there anyhting I can...
I get the same result as you. But I also get the same result if I just create a static html file on my desktop. Are you sure you have the character code...
... The service mark character is one of those characters that's historically not been well-supported across user interfaces. Your code is perfectly valid,...
I am not sure there is a best practice here but you should also think about usability, locking, security, workflow, etc. - if all the data is in the home item,...
I have installed the XML data provider and followed the instructions given on SDN5. Using the example XML extract shown in the instructions, nothing shows up...
Has a SQL script been created as a resolution of this issue? I have just run into the same problem and would rather not do a full upgrade from 5.1.1 right now....
I'll reply to myself, then :-) : I went through the entire database and found that approx. 25 items were missing in the masterindex-table. I rebuilt the...
Is there a tool out there that can take all the items under the home node and dump them to a xml file? I just wanted something to look at when writing my...
Hey Mike, To export the items for a language, go to Control Panel > Globalization ... focus too much on the raw xml - is to use the extension functions. So, ...

I'm at the point where I'm starting to write some x-path queries in the xslt files for the first time. One of the items under the home item is called...
The xpath used is different than a sitecore path. ex: sitecore path /home/needhelp xpath //item[@key='home']/item[@key='needhelp'] That is why extension...
<xsl:variable name="nh" select="$home/item[@key='needhelp']" /> <xsl:value-of select="$nh/@name" /> Everything in Sitecore is an item, and the key attribute of...
The simplest way to do this is to use the "Copy to Clipboard" command in the Content Editor, then immediately paste into a text or XML editor (Sitecore copies...
You want to avoid the // axis (descentant axis, pronounced "whack whack") because of a performance problem in the .NET framework. You can get around this with...

Veena - Just to make sure I understand what you are saying - is this a scenario where you are going to continue to maintain some of your legacy pages and you...
Note that Sitecore 5 has two xml formats: one is used for xml-serialization like clipboard copy/paste and packager and the other, which is more lightweight,...
Mike - Did you change the name of the home item for your sites? Check in the web.config under <sites><site name="shell">. Check the startItem attribute to make...
