Need help threading text boxes

Is there a way to make the text boxes that are threaded together auto number. If I put 600 in the first box, I want 601 to appear in the second box and so on.
thanks

I am laying out a magazine and I have to create thumbnails to show each page. I have the thumbnail page laid out and I have text boxes that are linked under each thumbnail with the page number inside the text box. I want to be able to put the first page of the magazine in the first text box and it will auto fill the rest of them. As it is now, I have to type the page number into each box. I can tab through the boxes, but I can't figure out how to make it auto number and it would save a lot of time.

It's not clear if your thumbnails are each threaded to their full-size text frames, or if each page-number text frame on the thumbnail page is threaded to the next one.
* If each thumbnail text frame on the thumbnail page is linked to the full-sized page elsewhere in the document, you can use the "next page number" marker.
* If the thumbnail text frames are not threaded to their corresponding full-sized page, you can create a cross-reference from each thumbnail text frame to a text frame on the corresponding full-sized page, using a cross-reference format that only captures and displays the page number.
* If your thumbnail page is intended to be a Table of Contents, you could generate a TOC that captures a paragraph style that's on each full-sized document page and adjust the TOC entries and non-threaded thumbnails to align suitably on the TOC page.
Search Google for terms like "InDesign table of contents," "InDesign cross-references," and "InDesign next page number marker," without quotes for details.

Threading text boxes inside of text boxes

I'm currently working on a book where the client has requested that certain sections of text are inside a gray box. I figured I could but that text inside a text box and place that text box inside the main body of text, so the box is uniform and not a floating shape behind the text box that I need to worry about during editing. However, I run into issues when the gray box text spans more than one page. Is there a way to thread text boxes that are placed inside another text box? The little box is there on the corner of the gray text box but I cannot click it to thread it to another 'placed' gray text box. I'm also open to other solutions.
I'm currently working with Adobe InDesign CS6.

Unfortunately, no.

Can some one advise what to do whitouh retyping text again in the new cell.
Many thanks in advance

You are welcome!
I have a preference for Javascript (just get in the syntax zone) and use it for most things (except dates).
As you know:
this = current object
rawValue = accesses the value of object
From an Excel point of view FormCalc is similar and has inbuilt function like sum(), Max(), etc. Syntax is $ for current object and you don't need the rawValue. This is very handy when summing a column in a repeating table. Also FormCalc is excellent for working with time and dates. (not that you can't work around in Javascript, but it is heavier).
Adobe have a very good reference for FormCalc at http://www.adobe.com/go/learn_lc_formCalc_82 and I would recommend that to you. I think it comes from the LC help file, but is easier to use.
From a performance point of view, you can either have FormCalc in the calculate event of an object, which looks back at other fields (this will fire each time one of these fields changes). Alternatively you can have the FormCalc in the exit event of a field, which pushes a calculation/value forward to another object.
Functions are handy if you have a script that you are using several times in a form. You write the script in a "script variable" and then call it in the objects events. HOWEVER, script variables are available in Javascript only.
One last thing is that if you have a constant (like VAT), then rather than including "* 0.21" in all of your calculations, use a global variable in the Form / Properties / Variables tab. currentVat = 0.21. Then in your calculations would be "* currentVat.value". If the VAT rate changes then you only have to change it in one location.
In summary FormCalc is more akin to Excel; just watch the syntax.
Good luck,
Niall

HELP! Need help generating TEXT-ONLY portal page...

Text Only Portal Question:
PLATFORM:
=================================================================
Sun Solaris (5.2 if memory serves) for db and mid-tier, running
8.1.7 DB and 3.0.9 (1.0.2.2) portal.
THE NEED:
=================================================================
I need to display text only portal pages. Some of the more
detailed concerns at this point are below. Also, I've had an open
tar on Metalink for about two weeks, and after research from
their end has resulted in no help.
THE ISSUES (so far):
=================================================================
IMAGES:
If an anchor [A HREF=...] tag uses an image as it's "text", I
need to strip out the ALT= text to show inside the anchor. If no
ALT text is available, then I would like to show the image name
as a default.
For example:
<img src=home.gif
alt=Home>
should display as:
Home
FORMS:
How do I get the resulting page from a form (which include the
login inputs and submit button, search box, advanced search page,
etc.) to be displayed by the text only page?
For example:
When a form is called, the <FORM> elements are as follows:
METHOD=GET or POST
ACTION=url (relative or absolute) to the script.
In this case, the action value is:
ACTION=/servlet/page?
pageid=6&dad=portal30&_schema=PORTAL30.
This calls the advanced search API.
I would expect that to redirect the browser back to some
text-only version, the ACTION= element would have to be changed
to be something like:
ACTION=[pathscraper]?/servlet/page?
pageid=6&dad=portal30&_schema=PORTAL30
REDIRECTION:
What happens when portal pages redirect internally? How do you
get back to the text-only page?
For example:
The login link on the standard Oracle Portal home page flips
from url to url to get to the actual login page. Our
implementation of Oracle portal goes from
[DOMAIN]/pls/portal30_sso/portal30_sso.wwsso_app_admin.ls_login
to [domain]/pls/portal30_sso/portal30_sso.login_page.
Since this is standard Oracle redirection, how can it be
intercepted so the portal30_sso.login_page can be presented as
text only?
TRIED SO FAR:
=================================================================
I've written a socket/text scraper in Perl, running it from a web
server. The problems mentioned above are really causing problems,
plus the whole cookie thing. Since Oracle Portal tries to push a
cookie to the client, when the client is another UNIX server,
the cookie thing doesn't work.
POSSIBLE OTHER SOLUTIONS:
=================================================================
Something...anything. I've tried to think of some method to
create some sort of PL/SQL procedure to catch the content then
strip out the HTML calls.
An Applet to do the same thing, but on the client side, but
since time is an issue, coding a complete Java applet isn't
really an option.
THE CONCLUSION:
=================================================================
HELP! I need some help. This is for a client that is government
funded, and to meet Section 508 (part of the Americans with
Disabilities Act that states web sites and applications must be
made accessible. A text-only page is one of the requirements for
an accessible page.
Thanks,
Ryan Stefani
ps: feel free to contact me via [email protected] or
[email protected]

Use Find/Change and the GREP tab.
Search for .+ and set the Find formatting to find the charcteristics you want.
What will you do with this text once found? You'll need something to "change" to, either new text or Change Formatting options...

Need Help formatting text in a chart in Keynote

I'm attempting to edit/format some of the text in a chart. This is an imported Powerpoint presentation
so I'm limited to using the fonts available on the originators PC.
On the chart is a legend, showing little coloured boxes which reference the coloured elements in the chart. The text beside these is too long, and the text box runs off the page. I know I can go to the inspector and change some parameters (ie horizontal spacing) but I really need to break the text into two (or more) lines. However, I cannot find a means to enable text wrap. I have tried to create an invisible additional column (Chart/edit data) but I cannot hide the box.
Any suggestions would be appreciated

You can add a line break in the Chart Data Editor cells by typing Option-Return at the point you want the break. This will let you have legends with text that runs two or more lines.

Help with text box rasterization in adobe muse

When ever I create a text box, add some text , highlight the text and try and create it into a hyperlink, it says that the text requires rasterization and that the hyperlink will not work.
How do I 'rasterize' the text box which will allow me to convert the text within, into a hyperlink?

For some reason in the new MUSE it wont let me add an email address for example:
mailto:[email protected]
says it is not supported yet?

PLEASE HELP anchored text boxes corrupted CS5

I have a book I've been working on for some time that is close to final. It has anchored text boxes in the sidebar that flow with the text and is being edited in an IC assignment environment. I made semi-final edits to it yesterday and exported a PDF, but when I started scrolling through the pages, I noticed that whole pages of the content were blank. The stories were still flowing as if there was text on the blank pages, but there were no text boxes to select and it was intermitten through the whole document. Thinking the layout file was corrupt, I exported to IDML and opened that. It recovered almost identical to the other file and now all the anchored text boxes are completely locked. I can no longer select them to edit the text or move them. I tried unlinking the IC stories, still locked. I tried going back to a version of the ID file from before I made the edits--figuring the edits would be preserved in the stories and I could just reedit the layout, but while I've managed to recover the pages of content that had gone blank, my anchored text boxes are still completely locked. Does anyone have any suggestions. This book was nearly final and I have a hard deadline.
Mac 10.5.8, ID 7.0.4
I do have ID CS5.5 on another computer. Do you think it would be worth trying to convert the file to the newer version and then back to CS5?

OK, I've completely severed all connection to IC. Anchored boxes are still locked. I exported the whole thing to IDML again and opened that. Anchored boxes are still locked. I copied the text out of the story into a new blank document and the anchored text boxes are still locked. They show little locks on the frames. Is there a way to lock anchored text boxes without locking the story? If there is, maybe there's a way to unlock them? I'm just wondering if some option I don't know about was accidentally applied.

Need help with text() processing in XSL

Hello,
I have an xml that contains such text in my xml:
before<a>inside</a>after
and an xsl that transforms it to HTML (a cut for xsl):
<xsl:template match="a">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()">
<xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="yes" select="."/>
</xsl:template>
The result is: inside before after
but I need: before inside after
It seems it happens 'cause of this: http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#conflict
but I cannot find a way to solve this problem :(
I had tried to use priority in xsl:template, but it didn't help :(
Thanks a lot.

DrClap
here are xml and xsl.
That's not a real xml and xsl, but they might describe the idea and problem. I hope I miss nothing.
P.S. I cannot control xml, that's why I cannot use: <xsl:text> in xml.
Thank you!

Need Help Adding Text To A Template

I am using this template: http://www.templatemonster.com/flash-templates/21091.html
I would like to add text as it opens, going across the flag, something like this....
Sam Young. Not Uncle Sam, but here to serve you!
Now, obviously, that's not what I want it to say, but it's an example, of how I want it to move across the page, on the flag, before it opens to the first page. I've tried everything I know to do. I'm sure I'm just missing something silly. Can anyone help me?
Thanks!

Wow... am I asking the impossible here? lol
I'm still looking for help with this, if anyone can help me.
I am searching for template help tutorials, and I don't know if I'm just calling it the wrong thing or what.
I want the text to scroll ACROSS the screen, on entry to the site, across one of the stripes on the flag. Every tutorial I have found tells you how to add scrolling text in the box, like paragraphs. I just want one line, a Welcome Message, if you will, that goes across the screen. I was able to do this in DHTML previously, but Flash is a whole new ball game for me.
Ok, I just did a search, and it's a MARQUEE that I want. So, I've searched, and found this: http://www.kirupa.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-3601.html
So, I'll try that and see if it does what I want it to do.
I'm including all of this, in the event that someone else is interested.
