Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I need some lj help.
Over the last month I've found that certain styles of journal won't load properly for me. I get the first screen's worth of entry, but can't scroll down. Any ideas why this is happening?(My browser is Netscape 7.0 for the Mac)
which I still don't like much
I'm not looking forward to it, I tell you what.
you do not need earthlink software to connect to one of their numbers. period.
Open Office doesn't allow you to select hard carriage returns, for instance--they're not recognize the same way Word does.
Suela, what's the exact s&r clean up you do? I was able to get it to find and replace paragraph tags using regular expressions ($), though it took me a couple passes to nuke them all. ETA: [link]
3D effects with Beryl on Linux are kinda cool.

Apparently they really like the cube thing. It does make switching between virtual desktops pretty cool, but I'm not sure about the functionality of just moving it around.
OMG, Plei, thank you! I looked and looked for that, and was utterly lost in the help files, there was nothing there.
I was doing some cludgy html prep, adding br to every paragraph break to keep the formatting when I dropped the story into my standard page setup. t defensive I don't know any other way to do it, and I'm sure there's a better way, but this works fine and it's simple and the page loads fine and I don't really care if it's the cleanest code ever. t /defensive
De nada!
I knew it had to be in there somewhere, but their documentation is a sad, sad thing. I'll have to use it, too, when I get back into the groove of moving all my fic into WordPress.
Were you using OO to format your files for recal? I thought you were using a different program.
Also, when I moved everything to WP, I went to my website and just copy and pasted all the test into the text box. Easier for me than wading through coding, since WP does it for you all over again.
Random question: Does it matter if I turn my computer off or not? It's a laptop that goes into snooze mode or whatever.
I don't know.
Sorry, for a long time I've been tempted to 'answer' a Buffistech question that way. And actually, that question has crossed my mind recently, as my iBook was not allowed to sleep (it would crash when it woke up) but my MacBook sleeps without a problem. So I pretty much only reboot it when it needs to be (updates, etc).
Um, there's still no point for this post, is there?
