Turning on autonumbering for headings in Word 2007 has puzzled a good many people. I have been looking for a way to make my headings automatically numbered for some months now.
Today, I looked further into the issue and finally found the solution.
Step 1.
Open the normal.dotm template. Enter the text as shown in the image below. Do not use the headings at this point. Instead, type it in and format it the way you would like the headings to appear.
Step 2.
This is actually the part that I overlooked first.
Select all your text. Click the multiple-level list button and choose the list that has heading in it. In the picture below, it's the option that is enlarged. It says kop because I'm using the Dutch version of Word 2007.
Now, you need to tell Word that you want multiple levels - not just 1 level.
Click the multiple-level list button. There's an option that lets you change the level of the list item. For each heading you want to create, change the level.
Step 3.
The last step. Select each heading and then right-click the corresponding style button in the ribbon and select "update style to selection". That may not be the exact wording (again, I'm on a Dutch copy of Word) but it should be the first item in your list. Check the image for further help.
Do this for all your headings. Save the template and press ctrl-n to start a new document. Your headings will be autonumbered.
The title is actually misleading. I'll be explaining how to ditch tables and move to a more CSS-centered approach of your website.
There is still a large number of webdesigners and webdevelopers that use tables over divs and CSS to design their website. This article is meant as a "getting started" tutorial to help you move from tables to divs.
This is in no way a complete guide to CSS-centered design, and it certainly doesn't explain about all the niceties of CSS-centered design. It's meant to help people move away from tables and start appreciating CSS-centered design.
may still be true in 2009. Here's Steve Jobs in 1996, talking about Microsoft who, by that time, just released Windows 95. The sound is completely out of sync, so my apologies for that.
Here's the transcript.
The only problem with Microsoft is they have no taste. They have absolutely no taste and what that means is ... I don't mean that in a small way, I mean that in a big way. In a sense that ... they ... they don't think of original ideas and they don't bring much culture into their product. And you say "why is that important?". Well, proportionally spaced fonts come from typesetting in beautiful books, that's where one gets the idea. If it weren't for the Mac, they would never have that in their products. ... Erm ... And ... So I, I guess, I am saddened, not by Microsoft's success. I have no problem with their success. They've earned their success - for the most part. I have a problem with the fact they just make really third-rate products.
We have the all-new Megcos 1182 at home since we got it from my sister for Christmas. While it may not be the most technologically advanced musical cow, we were able to hack it with a mixture of luck and coincidence.
DISCLAIMER: This hack can potentially harm your Megcos 1182. There is NO known reset procedure should anything go wrong. Hitting the Megcos 1182 HARD is your best bet in case anything goes wrong.
The Megcos 1882 or Musical Cow is able to produce a number of interesting sounds and songs. The nose will generate a "moo" sound and the bell will sound like a cowbell. The A button will sound like a sheep, the B button is reminiscent of a rooster and the C button will sound lilke Zorro's Tornado. The 1 button will make a cellphone-like sound, the 2 button will make you think you're in the London tube (that's the underground for US English afficionados) and the 3 button will make a ticking sound like only a clock can. Each of the A, B, C, 1, 2 and 3 buttons will also play a song. Each of these buttons will alternate between "sound" and "song". The songs themselves will rotate and are the same for all buttons. I can't name all of the songs, but there's 10 of them.
However! There are more possibilities. With a little bit of playing around delving into the User Interface, we were able to extract 12 more sounds! These sounds are the following.
"A" and "Triangle";
"B" and "Square";
"C" and "Circle";
"1" and "Star";
"2" and "Heart";
"3" and "Hexagon".
The way to actually reveal these hidden sounds is to actually slide the "on" button not all the way "on" (or not all the way "off"). Sliding it just far enough will result in the buttons producing the said 12 additional sounds. If you don't slide the button for enough, the normal sounds will continue to sound or you get cut-off versions of the 12 additional sounds.
Also: Hexagon? What 1-year old is going to even reproduce that? HEXAGON! LOLLERSK8Z!
Today, well technically yesterday, I launched Frozen Whisper. It is a portfolio made for Anne Elst, model and concert photographer. Not satisfied with the implementation and maintainability of existing albums, I decided to write my own. The portfolio is simple and uses PHP to dynamically create photo albums. No database is used, instead, the website crawls itself for pictures. A text file is used to create captions, description of the shoot and more. I also implemented MooTools for the scrolling thumbnails.
Be sure to check it out!
The website was well received with comments such as "very clear", "nice and uncluttered".
