TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Doesn't the answer have a direct relationship to what you are working
with?
What are you working with? What is the subject? The header and footer
helps you find content. Based on your content, that determines your
header and footer. The only thing that is for sure is that it has a
page number of some type...probably.
