There are a few related entries but I cannot find a solution, sorry it's quite urgent.
I'm trying to achieve a continuous numbering of pages, figures and tables, rather than the numbering restarting at each chapter.

? Either\makeatletter\@removefromreset{section}{chapter}\makeatother
or\makeatletter\@removefromreset{chapter}{part}\makeatother
(or both) may be what you are looking for.\usepackage{chngcntr}
and\counterwithout{figure}{chapter}

can be used so that (for example) sections within each chapter are continuous. For example, normally you have Chapter 1, Section 1.1, Section 1.2, Chapter 2, Section 2.1, etc. But using this will give you Chapter 1, Section 1.1, Section 1.2, Chapter 2, Section 2.3, etc. (i.e. the section numbers never reset). On my first read through, I mistakenly thought you wanted everything with continuous numbering.
