When I do endnotes/footnotes, I don't actually use that function. I just type my stuff, add the numbers, and then superscript the numbers (format>font>superscript) after I'm done. Then I add the footnotes/endnotes where I want them with the numbers I want. It might be easier to do it the "right" way, but I'm philosophically opposed.

I don't know if that's helpful or not, but I hope it is.

HOW DO I TURN THAT FUNCTION OFF?!?

Bah. My stupid modem problem continues, regardless of unplugging stuff and whatnot. So I called the cable company and they were basically unhelpful. (My favorite part: "Who am I speaking with?" "Jesse." "OK, can I call you Betsy?" Um....If you really want to?) They said I could go get a different modem, or place a service call, which of course would be next week, which of course is my first week at the new job.

So, here's the question for people who potentially know more than the stupid cable company people: Is this likely to be a hardware problem? Is it worth my going in and getting a new modem?

We've had problems that were fixed by getting a new modem. If nothing else, it'll probably get you a newer model.

Well, that's true -- I guess it couldn't hurt, no matter what.

Going to the TW store and getting a new modem is certainly the most expedient solution. If it can fix the problem, it will save you literally hours on hold.

I definitely lucked out calling today -- hardly any hold time.

I had a Comcast-supplied cable modem that was crap - the connection kept dying and restarting. I bought a new one from Radio Shack, which has worked perfectly. A Comcast service guy later told me their modems were crap....

XML hell here.

I have a web page that's produces by applying an xsl stylesheet to some xml. It stopped working for our client, but it still works here, with the exact same xml and stylesheet. What happens at the client is a big chunk of the resulting html just gets ommitted.

Is there any way to debug an application of a stylesheet?

(style is applied with Javascript:

var strTimesheet = objTimesheet.transformNode(objStylesheet);

window.document.all("frmMain").innerHTML = strTimesheet;

)

I have an ipod wired into my car stereo system-- wiring wise, it took the place of the six disk player I could have had installed. It stopped working this morning, and it is definitely not the ipod that's wonky. I think it's something in the wiring, but I'm not sure.

Generally sppeaking, is this something I need to take to the car dealer, or is a car stereo installation place likely to know how to fix it? Which is likely to be cheaper?
