[Orgmode] export to latex..
i have been running orgmode for awhile now, and using it to export my files to latex for printing.. for some reason, today, it stopped working.. when i do a C-c C-e and select 'l' to export to latex, i get the following: Sorting environment... Removing duplicates... done Applying style hooks... done and then it just hangs.. i have tried checking *messages* for some clues, but that is all it says.. anyone have any ideas where i might look to fix this? thanks! -- ___ peace, sergio www.village-buzz.com photographer, journalist, visionary ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] Suggestions for Orgmode.org homepage
Hello Carsten, The image at http://imagebin.org/35260 shows the Orgmode homepage in IE6 and http://imagebin.org/35261 shows the the same page in FF3. The page in IE (6) is jumbled up (table of contents mixed up with page contents) since it (IE6) does not support position: fixed used in the org.css. I faced the same issue when I gave some org-generated HTML documentation to someone using IE yesterday. So I got some help from a friend and worked out a compromise so that it doesn't break so horribly in IE6. What I did was to create another small CSS file, org-ie6, css, with following contents: : #table-of-contents{ : position: absolute; : float: left; : } : : body { : background-attachment: scroll; : } And load this CSS conditionally when IE 6 is being used by adding following line in the generated HTML file's header just above the body tag: : !--[if lt IE 7]link rel=stylesheet href=org-ie6.css type=text/css ![endif]-- (previous line may wrap) The compromise is that the table of contents in the sidebar (along with the background image) scrolls up with the page unlike in FF, which IMHO, is an acceptable compromise. I have been told that some javascript magic can make IE6 behave like position: fixed but I haven't yet worked out how/if that can be done. Possibly a better workaround/solution exists for this else please consider making similar change to the Orgmode home page. Also, I do not have access to IE7 so I do not know if that works.

Re: [Orgmode] Suggestions for Orgmode.org homepage
A reminder about accessibility. With changes to code that creates web pages, remember to try increasing the font size to very large and looking at all parts of the page. Try fonts large enough that the maximized browser can only display 60 characters or so. Quite often, text overlaps itself vertically or horizontally. Quite often it also runs past the right margin of the window, or the right or bottom edge of parts of the page. When that happens, the page is often unusable. -- For personal gain, myalgic encephalomyelitis denialists are knowingly causing further suffering and death by grossly corrupting science.

That works!

Anyone else can reproduce Sergio's problem? hi, carsten.. just one more thing that may be of use.. i can take any existing tex files (even really whacky ones) and produce pdfs just fine.. Hi Sergio, one thing you can do to narrow down where things go wrong is this: Go to the Options menu in Emacs and turn on Enter debugger on Quit/ C-g. The export a LaTeX file, wait until Emacs is stuck, and then press C-g. The backtrace should give us information where it got stuck. The backtrace will be more useful if you load uncompiled versions of Org, i.e. if the elc files are not present. - Carsten ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
