This is actually the best way to start learning and using HTML. It
really helps when you find problems when your software such as Frontpage
makes a mess of the code and it doesn't display properly. It also helps
you view and trace through the source code for other pages.
There are some text editors that will even colour the markup language
for you. I use emacs myself.

Hei,
just trying to give a few crumbs to these interesting questions...
+10 ;-)
Yes, definately. We shouldn't force the user into a single window
interface.
First, because some users (which use good window managers that actually
aid productivity) will hate it.
Secondly, because there are real use cases of multiple window office
work, like e.g. big screen setups or multi-monitor/projector setups.
Thirdly, because it drops one of the advantages...see below.
Nope. Grouping by application represents a coder point of view. From a
user point of view there isn't much purpose in it. On the other hand,
grouping by project or grouping by workflow would be of good use. But
this isn't quite doable automatically, except if combined with some kind
of project management implementation (which would be a beneficial
addition - for later on or so). Nonetheless, i imagine there would be
possibilities to aid grouping by project.
s?
- "Open Document in new window...", "Open Document in new Tab..."
- "Send Document to new window...", "Send Document to new Tab..."
- Ideally, drag a tab out of the window to create a new window.
- How flexible is ODF metadata and the extension system? Would it be
possible to save a tag with each document, telling it which "window
group" it belongs to? Of course, this suggests creating some kind of
management for window groups.
- Most gorgeous would be something like a "Save/Load session" feature.
It would allow to save "projects" rather than documents.
One idea would be vertical tabs, but that has issues.
A probably better approach would be the combination of some other ways:
- Make document tabs look different than "page" tabs.
- Include a mime-type icon on each tab. This also adds further usability
improvement.
- Place the tabs above the toolbar (although i wouldn't advice that,
really).
Ideally, if combined with a means of project management, there could be
a vertical docked window (like the styles list) that lists the projects
documents. This way no tabbar would be needed at all and further
benefits would apply. But i know of course that that's a whole different
story.
Andr=E9.

I used the trial version of MSO 2007, I think the UI is very attactive and fancy, no doubt about that, but one thing I found is
People can get confused about the UI, switch around between the menus, it is very hard to find the right option which people
are used to in previous versions of MS, I don't a lot of people will upgrade to the 2007.
on the other hand, I really think the UI of OOo need to improved to make a huge success.

Whether Microsoft is "immoral" or not is a bit of a grey area, but they
do constantly violate many nations laws of commerce rather than "Play by
the rules" because they can make more money that way, even if they have
to pay fines and court settlements because of their behavior. That
could be considered immoral.

It works indeed like Niklas has described.
But it is not an intuitive way for an user.
The selection block with the up/down arrow where the number of pages
needs to be selected is inviting one to intuitively delete the number 1
Adding the options will increase usability.
Anyway, thanks for pointing me to the existing functionality.

Ok I have a theory, I think that the gimp account was set up on a different
time than OOo. This might be not the fault of either gimp nor OOo but the
policy at paypal applied to most of the newer accounts but the older ones
didn't.
I am investigating on this, I made a donation through my CC to both Gimp an=
d
OOo and I saw that the OOo gave me the message of:
"The email address or credit card has already been added to a PayPal
account. If you have already opened a PayPal account, enter your email
address and password into PayPal Checkout and click *Log In*. Otherwise,
enter a different email address or credit card number to complete your
purchase."
I will need to ask either paypal on ways of modifiying the settings so the
users re not forced to sign in into Paypal. However if you know alternative
ways to charge directly to the credit card (like the engine from
fundable.org) please dont hesistate to suggest.
