TOC at the beginning of every chapter

Hi,
I am working on a publication.
I included a TOC at the beginning of the document:
Chapter one
part one
part two
Chapter two
part one
part two
Chapter three ...
So far, so good, but I also want to include the same TOC at the beginning of each chapter,
this time only containing the part of the TOC that is relevant to that chapter:
for example: Chapter two should start witch a TOC, containing:
2. Chapter two
part one
part two
But it shouldn't contain any of the information about chapter 1 or 3.
Can this be done?
At the moment, my publication is just 1 long InDesign document, not an InDesign book or something...
I accomplish what I want by creating a TOC, and manually delete (for each chapter) the parts that aren't relevant to a specific chapter....
Any help would be appreciated...

I would create the TOC as a threaded story.
The first text frame(s) before the first chapter, second before the second, etc.
All that you would need to do then would be resize each text frame(s) to fit the correct part of the TOC for that chapter...

Make an alert box at the beginning of every month

I'm writing a budgeting tool and at midnight at the beginning of every month I want to pop up an alert saying it is the start of a new month and enable a button in jsp.
I have tried a couple ways to do this. First I wanted to keep creating a calendar and check if the date was 1. But then this would be much more work than is needed.
Next I tried to use the TimerTask class and set a boolean to true at the first of every month, but then I couldn't figure out how to make the javascript run when the run method of that thread executes. I tried using a while loop in the jsp page itself to check the boolean but this just caused the page to hang.
A third idea I was trying is to have an invisble form with a hidden field using this boolean. I was trying to figure out a way to use onChange to trigger the javascript, but this would only work for some sort of visible input.
Anyone have any exprience on scheduling a task like this at the beginning of every month or about how to force a page to reload at a specific time? Thanks.

You could even put that in a frame with a form to navigate a seperate frame:
//frameset
<html>
<frameset frameborder="0" framespacing="0" rows="26px,*">
<frame scrolling="no" frameborder="0" marginheight="0"
    marginwidth="0" name="frameA" noresize src="testingB.jsp" />
<frame scrolling="no" frameborder="0" marginheight="0"
    marginwidth="0" name="frameB" noresize src="http://www.google.com" />
</frameset>
</html>
//then your time-important page (called testingB above)
<html>
<body>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        function navigate() {
          var navigateTo = document.forms[0].address.value;
          if (navigateTo.toLowerCase().indexOf("http://" == -1)) {
              navigateTo = "http://"+navigateTo;
          parent.frameB.location.href = navigateTo;
          return false;
        function doAlert() {
            alert("Time to do Something");
            window.location.reload(); //so it will happen again next month.
<%
    //When first created, the calendar points to now.
    Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
    long curTime = cal.getTimeInMillis();
    //then, lets set it to the 1st day of the month, at 00:00:01.00 (1 second after midnight
    cal.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, 1);
    cal.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
    cal.set(Calendar.SECOND, 1);
    cal.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
    //finally, add a month to get the first second of next month
    cal.add(Calendar.Month, 1);
    long triggerTime = cal.getTimeInMillis();
%>
        //set the doAlert to occur after the # of milliseconds between now and
next month.
        setTimeout("doAlert()", <%= (triggerTime - curTime) %>);
    </script>
    //form will read address you type in input, and navigate the other frame there.
    <form onSubmit="navigate();" name="nav">
      <input type="text" name="address" size="100" style="margin:3px" />
      <input type="submit" name="Go" value="Go" style="margin:3px" />
    </form>
</body>

My iBook has a blank page at the beginning of each chapter. How do I delete?

I have a blank page offset to the left at the beginning of each chapter. How do I delete them?

The first selectable template is "Basic"... the template - and any others have placeholder text and images excepting pages "Default" and Blank. The "Default" page accepts flowing text. "Blank" is just that with only any BG image and page numbering decided in the template.
Nothing you describe seems to be part of just opening a standard template.
Below are screen shots from the book tree and the layouts - these are the "Basic" template pages without any modifications.
Any of the pages shown in the tree can be deleted. Chapter and Sections will also delete any pages added under them.

Creat new files at the beginning of every hour

I am trying to write a VI to store data in text file. To avoid a too large file, I want to store the data in different files. I want these files to be created at the beginning of every hour. How could I achieve this?
Thanks in advance!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hey,
Maybe you could integrate this in your code. It will increment the number in the filename every half second.

Style a pic as the beginning of a chapter? Epub

I am using Pages to export to Epub. I understand how to style text to be the beginning of a new chapter, but I have not found a way to "style" a picture as the beginning of a new chapter. Any advice?
I have access to both pages 4 and pages 5 if either can do the trick.

ITunes is skipping at the beginning of every song

Hello.
My iTunes started skipping about 2 weeks ago. It hasn't done it for the last 2 years I've had this compuuter - it started either when my iTunes updated or my iPod did.
Any ideas about how I make it stop?
It doesn't do it all the time. There have been a couple days where it has been okay. But not many.
Any ideas would be great.
Thanks,
Jeremy

Try resetting it first be holding the middle button and the menu button at the same time for a few seconds. If that doesn't work, try restoring it by plugging it into your computer and using iPod updater to restore it to the original settings. It does delete EVERYTHING from your iPod, but at least it will work again...
Cheers!

IPod stuck skipping at the beginning of every song

My iPod isn't frozen, but it won't play any songs past the first second. My touch wheel isn't working properly for some reason so I can't reset it. Any advice on how to proceed? Updating it through iTunes isn't working either.

%PDF - is this ALWAYS at the begining of every pdf file?

We are adding the ability to work with pdf files to our application. And we need to identify which type of file we have. Can I be sure that all pdf files start with the same characters? "%PDF" And the PDF is always capitalized.
I'm pretty sure the answer is yes, but am hoping someone can confirm.
Thanks.

Not necessarily. While the PDF Reference/ISO 32000-1 does state that the %PDF occur at byte zero of the file, there are many PDFs out there (that Adobe's products will open just fine) where there is some amount of "stuff" that occurs before the %PDF.
So it's up to you whether you wish to support those documents or not. But they are VERY MUCH a minority.

How can I create a general TOC using the titles of my books TOCS

I have a document that includes the information of 6 different books, each one has its own TOC at the beginning of the chapter. The chapter title is only written as the title in the TOC. In the first book I want to create a general index that shows the 6 chapter names. I have tried to create a TOC, but it just appears blank. I think that's because I haven't written the titles, they were created in each chapter TOC by InDesign. I really think there must be a way to create this general TOC but I just can't figure it out. Can you help me, please?

Create every TOC with a title paragraph style which is not the same as the title styles in the text.
Create a new document, assamble all documents in a book fille indb, create a new TOC which reads out the paragraph style of your TOC’s titles, include all book files in the definition of this TOC only.

How to use CreateInsert in inseting new row at the beginning of each page

I would like to insert new row in an editable table bu using CreateInsert. How to insert that at the beginning of every pagination. Let us say, if my pagination is 10, when I insert the record in pagination 21-30, the new record will be inserted and will be the new 21st record. In pagination 1-10, the new inserted row will be the 1st record, and so on.
The default behavior is the newly inserted record will be at the top of the record where the focus is located. I want the behavior to be always at the top of every pagination. Pls help

Probably you have to create your own createAndInsert method in view object implementation class and expose it to the client. Then use this method instead of default create and insert action.
In your new method use createRow() and insertRowAtRangeIndex() methods to insert record exactly where you want.

Why does my iPod app keep starting over from the beginning??

I have noticed lately that my iPod app seems to start over and play ALL songs on my phone from the beginning nearly every time I plug my phone into my car stereo.
I plug my phone into my car stereo and listen every day on my work commute. As such, it's very important that the music stay on the same position between the times when I'm in my car. For the most part it's been fine, even on 4.0.1, unless I rebooted the phone or did a spring board respring, or otherwise killed the iPod app from the multitask app list.
However this past week, it's been starting over from the beginning (I was playing songs from a playlist and it starts over from the beginning of ALL songs) nearly every single time I connect it to my car stereo. I have not been listening to the music between times in the car, nor have I even opened the iPod app or killed the process from the multitask bar.
This is absolutely maddening. No changes have been made to the phone in the past couple of months, other than a few App Store app updates here and there. This just started really being a problem in the past week. What could be causing this?

Dont have that problem but i have two tips:
1 Other ipod/iphone apps: they are often the problem, i had an alarm clock and that blocked the whole ipod app, so check if other apps dont use songs to wake up or anything else..
2 try to leave the ipod app trough the multitasking instead of pressing the home button?

Always start songs at the beginning?

I sometimes use my iPod for music at parties I throw. If I have been playing it for myself, and stop it in the middle of a song, when it comes to that song during a party it starts in the middle - where I stopped it. And that just sounds stupid.
How do I make it always start at the beginning of every song?
A.M.

Okay..
I was under the impression that 'Remember Playback Position' set the order in which songs were played, and since I want to preserve that, I do have it turned on.
My experience is that it does work this way, and if I don't have it turned on then the songs default to alphabetical order by title.
Am I confused here?
Is there some other option that preserves the order of the songs?
Is there some discoverable help file that explains the 'Remember Playback Position' option?
Is there some discoverable help file that explains how to control what position a song is in a playlist?
Yes, I'm asking more questions than you've answered, but this is not at all clear to me.

Songs do not start at the beginning

Recently I have noticed that my iPod Touch (2G) is randomly skipping the beginning of every song. In other words, when a song begins, it'll begin 5 seconds, 10 seconds and even 40 seconds into a song. I don't know what could be causing this. Does anyone have any ideas? I've already rebooted my iPod, but that did not help.

Hi Egidio,
Try to Get Info tracks you are seeing this issue on in iTunes. Is "Remember playback position" checked?
This option will cause iTunes and the iPod to resume playing the track from where stopped, as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA23496
