383.0. "Don't want numbering in a mini-book" by CDROM::DUPREZ () Wed Nov 07 1990 12:30

    
    A look-see of the last 100 or so notes doesn't reveal anything
    about this, so:
    
    I'm interested in creating a small online book with no chapter
    and section numbering, but cannot figure out how to do so.   
    (There are no tables, figures, or examples to complicate the
    matter.)
    
    Is the <DOCUMENT_ATTRIBUTES> tag supported in ONLINE?  I've
    tried using it, but to no avail, and I'm not enough of a
    DOCUMENT user to know what the alternatives are.
    
    Thanks in advance for any help.

383.1	try <unnumbered_heads>	OLD::UTT	Mary Utt	`Wed Nov 07 1990 12:57`	4
	You can use <unnumbered_heads> (on DOCUMENT V1.2B), but it will number the chapters. Mary
383.2	omit <chapter> tags	OLD::UTT	Mary Utt	`Wed Nov 07 1990 16:49`	7
	Graphic Services also suggests that you use <unnumbered_heads> and simply omit the <chapter> tags. They have done this for installation guides in the past. For hardcopy output, <page> would allow you to start each <head1> on a new page; for online output <head1>s start new topics by default. Mary
383.3	try CUP doctypes	VIA::EPPES	I'm not making this up, you know	`Thu Nov 08 1990 17:49`	6
	The new CUP doctypes allow you to have unnumbered heads - not sure about chapters. See the 4TRACK::CUP_DOCTYPES for information about installing these doctypes (which include an online doctype). Note 2 in that conference has the kit info. -- Nina
