XML metadata

[hame22]

Hi people,

I have an xml metadata file that describes a pdf page. How do i link this file to my pdf so when I search in my internal search engine I get alink to the pdf rather than the xml file?

All help will be mostly appreciated!

Thanks

Alex

you can add an element which includes the path of your pdf... then you can code a XSLT that gives you that path as a link

ok thanks, how do i go about placing this xml metadata into a database?

 

[ozane]

u can store the xml metadata as blob in a database. i use sql server to store metadata files. but you need to develop application for upload your metadata as blob file into database

Or you could use a native XML database. Google for "native xml database" for more info.
