QUESTION
First, we identify if the attribute exists in nodes-of-interest
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-04 at 16:24I am not sure there is an easy way to specify the position of a new attribute other than at the end.
In the code below I retrieve the list of attributes, strip all of the attributes from the root node and then replaced them with the new list. In the code below I added the new attribute first. The problem statement was not clear on whether the new attribute was alway the third position or the preceding attribute may vary in position.

I'm trying to write a distill::distill_article
blogpost which requires the use of LaTeX math environments e.g. theorem, lemma, proof etc.
I have tried to follow these instructions and also these instructions but am unable to render the theorem
environments whether using LaTeX
blocks or rmarkdown blocks.
I also note that a similar question was asked about specifically using distill::distill_article
in bookdown

, not the other way around.

QUESTION
I have a local folder that contains 64 individual EVENTLOGSTATE files which are in XML format that I'm trying to access and read into R. I'm able to access the folder and list out all the specific files within that folder, but then when I try to use xmlParse from library(XML) to read in the files, it gives me an error that XML content does not seem to be XML.
For reference, I've created an example of my list.file line, my xmlParse line and the returned error as well as an example of file names within the folder along with what data is in each file.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Dec-12 at 03:40That was a good start. These files have a namespace associated with them, which does throw in a curve ball. The easiest way to handle the namespaces is to strip them out.
Also, ensure the correct file is referenced in the xml_find()
functions.
