Outline Numbering HTML

Hi All,
Has anyone tried to get outline numbering to work with HTML
or dreamweaver? I'm not even sure if this feature is supported?
I've done the usual trawl around google but only found a
couple of very convoluted methods. I get the feeling that it is not
supported and would rather get some feedback from people who have
tried it.
thanks
Craig

See code below. Works in FF; doesn't in IE. I haven't tried
it in
other browsers. The code comes direct from the w3c (note the
tagnames
in uppercase):
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/generate.html#scope
<style type="text/css">
OL { counter-reset: item }
LI { display: block }
ol LI:before { content: counters(item, ".");
counter-increment: item
</style>
</head>
<body>
<OL> <!-- (set item[0] to 0 -->
<LI>item <!-- increment item[0] (= 1) -->
<LI>item <!-- increment item[0] (= 2) -->
<OL> <!-- (set item[1] to 0 -->
<LI>item <!-- increment item[1] (= 1) -->
<LI>item <!-- increment item[1] (= 2) -->
<LI>item <!-- increment item[1] (= 3) -->
<OL> <!-- (set item[2] to 0 -->
<LI>item <!-- increment item[2] (= 1) -->
</OL> <!-- ) -->
<OL> <!-- (set item[3] to 0 -->
<LI> <!-- increment item[3] (= 1) -->
</OL> <!-- ) -->
<LI>item <!-- increment item[1] (= 4) -->
</OL> <!-- ) -->
<LI>item <!-- increment item[0] (= 3) -->
<LI>item <!-- increment item[0] (= 4) -->
</OL> <!-- ) -->
<OL> <!-- (reset item[4] to 0 -->
<LI>item <!-- increment item[4] (= 1) -->
<LI>item <!-- increment item[4] (= 2) -->
</OL>

  • How to continue outline numbering across pages

    Using InDesign CS4 on Mac...  Sorry for the newb question, but I've got a section on the right-hand side of my document that has outline numbering across a couple pages.  I've used separate text boxes for each page.  Is it possible to continue this numbering so that 1-5 show up on page 1 and 6-10 show up on page 2?  Thanks!

    As janine4gg mentions, the link she gives is one to a multi-part series in that blog that helps with all different numbering tasks. I recommend looking at the the first in that series: http://blogs.adobe.com/indesigndocs/2009/04/numbered_lists_part_i_outlines.html.
    Using defined paragraph styles that include a numbering style and using a defined numbered list, there should be no issues about where or which side numbered items fall on for numbering to continue correctly.
    If you mean that you have a text frame that you use to contain an outline and you need it to break in a certain place, you would put a text frame break in. Type > Insert Break Character > Frame Break. Link the text frame with the break to the text frame you want the text to flow into.

  • How can I customize Microsoft Word Outline Numbered List Templates with AppleScript?

    I wrote an applescript to set up a word document with the appropriate styles to give the document an academic setup, much like what Xelatex produces. This is a work in progress and I have a problem.
    I have successfully applied the style changes to each Header and I have applied the desired outline numbered list template "list template 5 of list gallery 3", however I would like to add tab stops to each one in order to make each header look slick like in Latex.
    To do what I want manually in Microsoft Word 2011 mac I would click Bullets and Numbering, customize, under text position i would check the tab stop box and put in some value (1 cm, for example)
    The following is an approximation of the result of running this script on a document with headings 1-9 applied consequently to each line, respectively. Note how they are not even. I think this is an issue with the template, but I want to be able to run this script on any mac without extra template files.
    1    Heading 1
    1.1    Heading 2
    1.1.1    Heading 3
    1.1.1.1    Heading 4
    1.1.1.1.1    Heading 5
    1.1.1.1.1.1 Heading 6
    1.1.1.1.1.1.1        Heading 7
    1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1Heading 8
    1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1 Heading 9
    Here is the script so far:

  • Outline Numbering in Numbers '09

    I want to create a five-level outline numbering in Numbers, but each entry has a 1. Surely I don't have to manually change each entry? it's 300 rows! The data has been copied and pasted from a website, then formatted in Numbers. Can outline numbering be applied, or does Numbers assume you're always creating your Tiered numbers list from scratch?

    Apply the 80 Percent Solution
    During the design process, if you discover problems with your product design, you might consider applying the 80 percent solution‚ that is, designing your software to meet the needs of at least 80 percent of your users. This type of design typically favors simpler, more elegant approaches to problems.
    If you try to design for the 20 percent of your target audience who are power users, your design may not be usable by the other 80 percent of users. Even though that smaller group of power users is likely to have good ideas for features, the majority of your user base may not think in the same way. Involving a broad range of users in your design process can help you find the 80 percent solution.

  • Outline Numbered Format in Textbox

    Is there a way to have lines in a textbox automatically be numbered like the Outline Numbered feature in Word? I want to create a dynamic form that formats like an outline when typed into a textbox. I am currently using Lifecycle Designer 8.
    example:
    1. xxxxxx
    1.1 xxxxxxxx
    1.2 xxxxxxxx
    2. xxxxxx
    Thnx-
    Alex R. Ruiz

    First, you don't provide the content that precedes this
    sample (you open with a LI tag), but there's way more code than
    necessary here.
    The main thing in lists is to simply select paragraph
    elements and click either the bullet or number toolbar icon. When
    you select paragraphs within the list for child formatting, simply
    click the increase indent icon. RH tends to end lists and resume
    them (as in your example), so you need to manually redo this, such
    as:
    OL
    LI [1. ...]
    LI [2. ...]
    /OL
    OL
    LI [a. ...]
    LI [b. ...]
    /OL
    OL start=3
    LI [3. ...]
    /OL
    should be:
    OL
    LI [1. ...]
    LI [2. ...]
    OL
    LI [a. ...]
    LI [b. ...]
    /OL
    LI [3. ...]
    /OL
    This results in a truly nested for of list/sublist elements,
    which translates very nicely to Word.
    Peter Grainge covers this in more depth on
    his
    site.
    Good luck,

  • Outline numbered headings possible?

    I'd love to use Pages instead of Word for the briefs I have to write for law school. However, there's one formatting issue I can't figure out and is crucial. Is there a way to do outline numbered headings? For instance, I want to have headings throughout the text that look like this:
    I. This is a first level heading.
    A. A Second Level
    1) Third Level
    2) Third Level
    B. Another Second Level
    II. Heading level one again
    A. A Second Level
    B. And another
    I tried setting this up by applying numbering to the Heading and Sub-Heading styles -- and creating a Sub-sub-heading -- but the numbering doesn't reset. So the second level headings under (II) start at C and then D, instead of A and B.
    Am I missing something? Thank you.

    More about numbered headings and TOCs...
    To gather headings numbered using the list format into a TOC, you DO have to create separate styles for each heading level, or Pages will gather the headings into one TOC level. You then have to edit the TOC styles to match your heading levels. Once the TOC is built, you have to indent the sub-heading TOC entries manually. You will probably also have to go to the first heading style in the document body and set it to begin number at 1. I've done it. It works. It just requires some planning ... and leaving the TOC until the absolute last thing you do. If there was a way to attach documents to this message, I'd attach my test file.

  • Where is Outline Numbering in RH7?

    We are converting projects from RH 5 to RH 7. All our documents have to be be formatted with "legal" numbering (e.g., 1.1, 1.2.1, 1.2.1.1, etc.) In RH 5, there were 3 tabs under Bullets and Numbering, as I recall. You had Bullets, Numbering, and Outline. Now the Outline tab or option appears to no longer exist. We have had to reformat our documents manually when adding or deleting sections.
    Does anyone know a way around this? And failing that, is there a way to add tab stops at least, so that lines that wrap will indent to the text position, not at the start of the line? In other words, we want the lines to be consistently indented and aligned without having to use spaces and nudge the lines, so sort of like this:
    1.1  For example, this is a level one sentence.
    1.1.1  This is a level two sentence and if you imagine it wrapped,
      it would exactly left justify on the second line with the first word of the first line (e.g., 'This"), and not the number 1.1.1.
    Any ideas or creative suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi Leon
    I know it seems a bit on the strange side. And being a new feature, it could well be buggy. Or, it could simply be working as the developers intended but they failed to anticipate how we would want to use it.
    All of it ultimately ends up in the CSS. Did you have a play with adjusting values in the CSS?
    Note that I wasn't suggesting it would be the ultimate end all solution here. I only suggested the eval be tried to see.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Can I show outline numbering in a table of contents?

    I am using an outline to put together a reference book.  This is hte format I'm using:
    A. Law and Justice
         1. Law of the Land
              a. Example
              b. Example
         2. Law Publication
              a. Example
              b. Example
    B. Government and Civil Officers
         1. Requirements for Civil Leaders
    However, the table of contents shows, "Law and Justice" instead of "A Law and Justice"  It also does not show the second level number.  For example, it shows "Law of the Land" instead of "1. Law of the Land".  Does anyone know how I can force the table of contents to show the numbering?
    Thanks!

    Pages T.O.C. does not include any List numbering and no you can not force it to.
    If you want numbering, you'll have to type it manually.
    Or use alternative software. Pages (whatever version you are using) is not compulsory.

  • Robohelp 9 numbered HTML lists problem

    I'm having problems with HTML lists in Robohelp 9 that are converted from linked Framemaker 10 xml files. The list numbering restarts from zero after the 9th item and I can't find anywhere that could be configured!
    The configuration for the conversion in the Robohelp 'Conversion settings' for the relevant numbered list paragraph in Framemaker is 'Convert autonumber to HTML list'.
    Many thanks in advance for any pointers.
    Regards,
    Nick

    Are you sure it actually restarts from zero? Have you checked the HTML code? My initial thought after reading this was that you might have some issues with CSS margins and alignments hiding the number in front of your zero. Numbers that should be 10, 11 etc. but shows up as 0,1, 2,3 etc.. Anyways, I would post an image that visualizes your output from RH.
    Edit: Have you tested a larger list (20+) to see if things are repeated?

  • Outline numbering between cells

    I am tying to create a tiered numbering system. I have got to work perfectly within one  cell.  However I want each number increment to have its own cell and I can't get the automatic numering to work if I jump to a new cell.  Please help.

    Hi Tom,
    I typed your tiered numbering into cells A1 to F1. The cells are all formatted as Text (because 1.2.1 and 1.2.2 are not numbers)
    Question: how do you tell Numbers how to increment each column? How does Numbers know that you want 1.2.1 in Column D, instead of 1.3? How does Numbers know to increment from 1.22 in Column E to 1.3 in Column F?
    I can't follow (and neither will Numbers, unless you tell it how).
    Perhaps you need another table where you show how Levels 1, 2 and 3 will vary.
    You can use the function CONCATENATE to add elements to a string. However, to make it automatic, Numbers will need some rules to follow.
    Regards,
    Ian.

    Insufficient information really. You need to provide:
    - APEX version
    - DB version and edition
    - Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener)
    - Browser(s) used
    - Theme
    - Templates
    - Report type (standard or interactive)
    and if looking for a SQL solution:
    - Create table scripts
    - Sample data
    - Required output (which we sort of have here)
    - Clear, concise description of the requirement
    It's not clear whether there are always only 2 a and b records, whether this varies, or what the order is?

  • Numbering Headings in the PDF output

    RoboHelp HTML 6
    To create the RoboHelp project, I imported a Word document,
    which created a topic for each heading. Now, besides HTML help, I
    want to generate printed documentation in PDF.
    How can I create numbered headings (e.g. 1, 1.1, 1.1.4 etc)
    in the PDF output?
    I do not want to "hard code" these numbering in the headings
    itself in the HTML, because inserting a heading would result in
    manually updating all subsequent headings as well.

    There is only one workaround:
    - leave out the heading numbers in RoboHelp
    - generate a Word first
    - set the outline numbering, which numbers all headings as
    required
    - update TOC manually in Word
    - generate PDF

  • How can I make Numbers respect the row and column locks in an Excel workbook opened in Numbers???

    I have a Windows server app that generates Excel workbooks to be emailed to political campaign volunteers to be loaded into Numbers on an iPad, edited, then emailed back to be posted to the server database.  There are two problems encountered:
    1.  The Excel workbook has the first row (column headings) and first column (route identifier) of cells locked, so that they will not scroll off the screen, but Numbers doesn't respect the locks, so when the user scrolls horizontally or vertically, the column headings and/or the route identifier scroll off the screen.
    2.  The Excel workbook has pop-up "tool-tip" type comments in certain column headings in order to provide the user with the acceptable entries for those columns, but Numbers does not respect those.  When the user touches any of the commented column heading cells, a context menu appears instead of the comment.
    What must I do in the Excel workbook sheets, or what settings can be made in Numbers to correct the above?

    I imported a Numbers '09 file into Numbers on the iPad.  All comments were removed during import. Frozen header row and column were retained.
    Thank you for your responses I must ask, however, when you refer to "importing" the Excel file, are you referring to a two step process whereby the Excel file is first converted by some other process into Numbers format, then opened in the Numbers application - which is what I have to do in my PC application to generate the Excel file, and reverse that process to convert the Excel back into my database format - or are you simply referring to opening the file in Numbers as "importing" it?  And please excuse any ignorance, as I'm not at all familiar with Apple's terminologies.  In fact, I don't own an iPad myself, but rather I have to depend on one of my clients to do the testing for me.
    I imported an XLSX file into Numbers on the iPad.  The file used "freeze panes" to "freeze" the first column and row. Only warning on import was that it changed fonts. It imported without the first row and column frozen and with no comments. Nothing I can do about the missing comments but it was a simple matter to turn the first column & row into headers and freeze them.
    Unfortunately this would not be an efficient  solution, since the end users are, for the most part, elderly political campaign volunteers who are fairly computer illiterate.  These workbooks are actually canvassing lists - known as walklists.  Their purpose is for the volunteers to interview voters, record the results of the interviews, and post the results to a database, which provides the campaigns with valuable strategizing capabilities.  Also, these workbooks have multiple pages - as many as 10 or more.  and from what I infer from the above, the setting changes would have to be made on each page.
    My whole intent in developing this iPad/Tablet methodology was to significantly reduce volunteer's work - which is a recruitment benefit - and eliminate paper.  While the latter would be accomplished, the former would not, and in fact would tend to increase it.  It's necessary to keep the first row - column headings - and the first column - the route identifier - from scrolling off the page, so that the volunteer won't have to keep scrolling up and down and right and left to know what the data are.
    Conclusion: Comments are not supported on the iPad version of Numbers.  Frozen headers are not imported from Excel but can be recreated easily.
    I was previously directed to the Apple website  http://www.apple.com/ipad/from-the-app-store/apps-by-apple/numbers.html which extols the wonders of the Numbers application.  About halfway down the page there's a section regarding, "Sliders steppers and pop-ups".  The web page states that pop-ups can be set up but, being a marketing site, gives no indication whatsoever as to how it's done.  I was hoping someone could tell my if there's any way to carry them over from an Excel file.
