I haven’t experienced it for couple of weeks at all. And.. I probably won’t until mid-January :D. University keeps me busy with all those things except linear algebra which I did last spring.
Then there’s Spikker for those interested in crosswords, both making and solving. I finished it up to a point and now it just waits for further entries or additional php code.
I’ve been working on converting some word documents to nicely styled .pdf-s and Writer is a great help.
I’ve created my own paragraph styles, marked all paragraphs with a style and that really makes it easy. I’ve been struggling with table of contents, however. While setting all the options I managed to crash the program several times. It offered me a chance to send an empty error report as well. I went with doing a couple of changes, save cycle and so far all good. But I didn’t add a title page before table of contents and now I can’t figure out, how to. I can make the table of contents manually editable but I can only add a page break inside table of contents, not before it. Arghh..

Those two certainly don’t make your work easy. Whenever you float a div inside another div and also use negative margin, IE thinks it’s fun to not display it at all, unless you add position:relative; to the floated div. Only the newest version can cope without that. I suppose they still make some progress when developing it :).
When you have a link and a list in another list’s element like so:
<ul>
…
<li>
<a…>
<ul><li…>…<li…></u>
</li>
…
</ul>
… then you have to tell IE that it should display a-tag as block or else they end up on the same line. But if I remember it correct then IE6 couldn’t tackle my menu hovering at all, whereas IE7 does it well with some tweaking.
Oh and if any one of you has an idea why 10em border and 10em sidebar don’t have equal width in IE and Opera, do share your wisdom.
