Script errors in the table of contents in RoboHelp 9

• Error JavaScript prevents the table of contents, Index, search view

  I produced my RoboHelp HTML project webhelp and got an error javascript (this.maCom [...] (' is null or not an object) when you view the result. See the full error text below. So the table of contents, index and search are not displayed. We'll find the javascript error in the status bar of the browser that says "error on page". I found that if I saw the result of robohelp, the browser that launched shows the table of contents, index and search, but has a security warning about a restriction of running scripts or ActiveX controls. However, when I move the generated webhelp on my production server, the help doesn't have the security warning, but produces the error so that the table of contents, index and search do not show. I had done the same process to generate webhelp about 8 months ago but had no error whatsoever. In fact, this version is still in production and works very well.

  In my search for the problem, I found that it is the same error as message of the forum 4063663 (http://forums.adobe.com/message/4063663). I didn't have a second system with RoboHelp to be able to get other whphost.js, however, I have diff had the file generated with that found in template_stock and found only two different lines. These differences were only to replace a couple of variables with static text so I do not replace this file will solve any problem for me. That is the message of only forum I could find who addressed this issue.

  I was originally on RoboHelp 8.0.0 when I first encountered the problem, but has expanded and patched to version 8.0.2 and still had the same problem. I even created a new simple project. Once I moved the simple project on the production server, it also would display the table of contents, index and search.

  The strange thing is that only 8 months ago, I used the same process to generate webhelp without any errors (on 8.0.0). The only thing I can find is there is a Windows XP patch which affected the generation of webhelp. Furthermore, I also tried chrome and also produces the error.

  I don't know what is causing this problem or how to solve the problem. Anyone have any ideas?

  After further research and testing, I found the update of security for RoboHelp 8 and 9 (http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb11-23.html) posted as an ad that I had not seen before. I used the feature updates of the product, but that said I was informed and did not include this update.

  Both javascript in this update files solve the problem. The table of contents, index and search now appear.

  Update:
  As I studied the problem further (when writing this reply), I found files that are newer than the latest security patches, I was aware of that. In addition, I discovered that my security organization decided to patch with APSB12-04 I don't know. This patch is why my 8.0.0 installation magically stop working. I see the announcement of the security, the bulletin was not all the required components for specific, that the patch can be applied to 8.0.1 and 8.0.2). (8.0.0, Adobe, please give more information on the ballots of so that organizations that deploy auto will be forced to find out what is running before the update. Information such as whether they apply to all versions of Robohelp 8 or simply a specific version. If APSB12-04 was supposed to apply to all versions of 8, then it did not work. In fact, he broke my installation of 8.0.0 for the generation of webhelp, but a later installation of 8.0.1 and 8.0.2. It seems that they have done a better job for APSB11-23. Maybe the security updates should be a kind of service pack that has a plant and a cancellation process. Right now, my security organization has replaced the files based on the specification in the security bulletin.

  I'll try to patch with APSB12-04 new since I've updated version 8.0.2 database to see if I still have the webhelp. If I can't view the table of contents, I have to take off once more and be 'in non-compliance."

• How to use the search bar 'Find' in the table of contents to find the script FULL of my course?

  Hello

  My project contains voice narration with the support of chips. Start-up option "find" in the table of contents looks only bullets of text on each slide to specific words. Is there a place I can insert the full script (rather than the abbreviated chips) spoken by the narrator in my class so that the option "find" search in these words?

  Thank you!

  Hello!

  Captivate, in fact the finding of OCD to retrieve and search for the text content of slide and slide labels usage.

  What you can do to get your full script to work.

  (1) add a text caption slide.

  (2) paste is your complete script. (From slide notes)

  3) go to properties of legend text-[disable] option which does not show in the output.

  In this way, you would have all your content on the slide to search for in the table of contents, but still not visbile to users, they would continue to see the short balls.

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you!

• Update the table of contents, errors in bookmarks

  When I update my table of contenst, it creates errors in my favorites. I have a hierarchy of level three with my titles of paragraph in my table of contents. When I update the table of contents, it takes the last item in my lowest level and a level higher than it is actually.

  Any ideas of what is happening and how can I fix?

  OK, thanks to your last message, I began to explore the Table of contents dialog box and understood what the problem was. It had to do with the levels that I had assigned to the table of content items, which I was incompatible. Now I have the right levels assigned to the table of content items and it updated bookmarks perfectly!

  Thanks for your help.

• Changing the font styles in the table of contents usingpages 5.6.2

  Hello

  I am writing a scientific assignment and I have some titles that contain italic characters such as: Importance of Bacillus cereus

  When I create a table of contents, these italics seem to disappear and I can't do these italics without making the entire table italic material - that is not what I want.

  I also have the same problem with the degrees symbol which is great script in my titles, but appears as '0' in the table of contents.

  Can anyone help please?

  Thank you!

  When you build a Table of contents, Pages v5.6.2 uses a brush regular Helvetica on all text in the generated TOC. He made his farewell to all the attributes of fonts can set up for your titles and headings. We can not selectively reapply text attributes to a part of a table of contents entry.

  If I use the degree symbol in the title or the title paragraph style, she survives as baseline Exhibitor in the generated table of contents. My degree symbol is entered as shift + option + 8 (on a U.S. keyboard).

• Duplicate sections throughout the table of contents after generating the HTML5 multiscreen output

  Use: RoboHelp 10, version 10.0.0.287

  Steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. click on file > create > main layout (Multiscreen_HTML5)

  2 al ' Generate window click on [Save and Generate]

  3. wait

  4. click on [view results]

  5 results show swathes of the table of contents reproduced in other sections.  10 more times to repeat the generation before that the entire table of contents points are correct and I can publish.  This is not preventing me from doing the job, but it's certainly a time killer.

  Background: I inherited a working version.  I did not create it.  I have more knowledge of the HTML language, but I'm not a developer.  I didn't upgrade beyond RH10 option.  I have studied this many times, but have not been able to find a solution.  The only other thing I've seen sometimes are error messages related to the toctree.js file, but I still don't understand those.  Even when I have not, this past yet, but I have included this error just in case it may be related, although I suspect that it is a separate issue.  I don't currently have the line in the js file because this sample is old and I have not seen the question at least a month.

  Other Notes: I've seen a few posts on a similar question in the printed version, but, I do not have a printed version.  I don't know if that makes a difference, and do I know if anyone in the past that put in place or even where to go to watch.

• RoboHelp 2015 (12.0.2.384): The search returns topics do not are included in the table of contents

  ENVIRONMENT: Windows 7 Enterprise SP1, 8.00 GB of RAM, 64 - bit OS, Office 2010, Adobe Acrobat X Pro, Acrobat Reader DC 2015.017.20050

  DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT:

  • A single RoboHelp HTML project with three exits. One of the outputs is a 'validation' reference that has its own Table of contents.
  • Validation reference Table of contents contains a subset of the subjects in the main help system. For example, the help system main table of contents contains a folder named 'Administration '. This folder is not in the table of contents of reference for Validation.
  • The reference of Validation is displayed on a public web site. Therefore, we applied the tag "Non_public_info" contained in the topics shared that we do not want to appear on the public website.
  • WebHelp parameters are:
    • Validation reference TOC
    • No map file, no sequence to browse
    • Conditional compilation expression: NOT_Non_public_info_AND_NOT_StyleGuidelines_AND_NOT_TRP (we keep our Style rules in the project to facilitate access during development. TRP content must be rejected because it was not released.)
    • Exclude non referenced topics of output is selected.
    • Search options. Only 'Show Total number of search results' and 'View AND search Option in outputs' are selected.
  • After generating the WebHelp, we remove the files that we don't want (RoboHelp generates empty folders, even if the files are not in the table of contents.)

  PROBLEM: A search in the help of Validation reference reveals the topics that we think should not be included because the subjects themselves are not in the table of contents of Validation reference. For example, the section "Data quality analysis" is in the main table of contents help, but not in the table of contents of reference for Validation. Therefore, we do not expect the topic appears in the search results pane at all. But he does. When the user clicks on the subject, the "Resource not found" message appears.

  Nothing shows the topic Style_Guidelines because the StyleGuidelines label conditional construction applies to the entire folder and the "Style guidelines" book in the main table of contents. (Same thing for the TRP folder).

  QUESTION: Why are topics which are not in the table of contents and whose records are not in the project at all appearing in the WebHelp during a search? We need to rewrite the expression of conditional compilation or establish conditions differently. We assume not have topics in the table of contents, not including the topics not referenced in the output, and remove empty folders would be the way to go. Any help is welcome!

  Thank you very much.

  Carol Levie

  The table of contents does not control what ends up in the output for output online. All content tagged and tagged content which is not excluded by the expression of construction will be included. The parameter 'Exclude topics not referenced output' more exclude all subjects which are not in the table of contents AND are not related to any topic which is included in the output.

  On the other hand, for the print output the table of contents control which is found in the output. I think that it will fire a lot of people.

  If you generate the help and that you do not remove the unwanted files, do you still have the error? If this isn't the case, you know that the topic is referenced somewhere in the content of the reference of the Validation.

  Here is the help of RH11. I can't imagine it would have changed, but you could do a search to verify a second time for RH2015.

  Exclude output not referenced topics

  Select this option to exclude any topic that exists in the project, but is not the default theme in page layout or is not referenced table of selected contents, index or sequence to browse, or any referenced subject.

  Note: RoboHelp shows the topics not referenced that are excluded from the output in the output view module.

• How we can print the page numbers for the shape of the TABLE OF CONTENTS when her excluded from the form page count?

  Hi Experts,

  We have the TABLE OF CONTENTS, followed by 100 forms totally 215 pages.

  We checked in the exclusion of the option of number of form page SUMMARY form at the level of the group.

  Followed forms of TABLE OF CONTENTS forms all use FORMSETPAGENUM rule at the bottom of page.

  the first form followed by TABLE OF CONTENTS form the number starts page 1 of 215 and the last form closes at 215 215.

  Now, I want to print the Page number of SUMMARY form only.

  How can do us?  Any thoughts?

  Kind regards

  RAMAN C

  Hello Raman,

  I guess that you included "Exclude the number of pages" option in the form of table of content (TOC).

  There is a limitation in the studio. The functions of page number (PAGE NUM OF FORM / FORMSET PAGE OF NUM) will be ineffective when we choose the option "Exclude the number of pages" in the form of table of contents. Therefore, you was not able to print many pages of form as a table of contents.

  The only way to print the number of pages is to deselect the option "exclude the number of pages. Then you can print the number of pages in the table of contents in the form of table of contents normally. However, this number of pages in the table of contents will add to the Total number of pages form set. The number of pages all forms can be controlled by Postransdal using the script [FORMSET PAGE NUM = TotalPages() - 1]

  Kind regards

• How to insert the table of contents within a table

  Using FrameMaker 12, I create a table of contents within a table. This means, 1st column contains the number of paragraphs, the 2nd column of the text of the paragraphs, the 3rd column the page numbers. Of course, each item must fill each cell of the table. I downloaded an example.

  Thank you for your help

  Nicolas

  

  Create a table of contents in normal conditions and use tabs as separators between the page number and section number, <$paratext>.

  Then use convert FM to the usefulness of the table to convert the table of contents for a table using the table design appropriate to your catalog.

  It's a manual, and you will have to redo this each time that you update the table, but it should only take a few clicks to do. Automate the steps with a script would make it less painful.

• Update the table of contents (Cp7)

  Hi all

  I found that when I try to uncheck the slides that I don't want to not show in the table of contents (about 190 slides in the 200 in a project) Captivate crashes with a fatal mistake and I lose any unsaved work.  I had to uncheck about 10 boxes at a time, close the table of contents and save but it is very time consuming.  Is there a way to uncheck all of the slides by default and select just those I want to appear?  Y at - it a fix for the bug fatal error?

  Thank you

  Cindy

  Hello

  Welcome to the Adobe Forums.

  Make sure you have you CP 7.0.1 update installed

  You're on MAC or Windows?

  It happens with a specific project or a sample as well

  Any similarity between the slides that you do not want to display in the Table of contents?

• RHCL do not pick up to the table of contents or index

  Hello

  We used RoboHTML 9.0.2 for our documentation. We connecting to our legacy word documents and generate webhelp from those. It works very well.

  We do not seek to the script process. We try to use RHCL from the command line to update the webhelp every night. The problem is that the index and the table of contents is not included in the generated file.

  I created a quick test with all our normal parameters project, and it works very well from the GUI of RoboHTML. When I indicated that I wanted to import the table of contents and the index of the working paper, I was asked to enter a new name for each. So for the Index, I have an empty index generated automatically with the same name as the project ("Demo_Wrapper"), which was initially marked as default. I have another clue, which bears the name I gave ("DW_Ind"). This index is up to date and complete the correct information. I have a setup similar to the table of contents.

  We cannot understand why everything is fine in the script generated webhelp outside these aspects. For example, the skin is correctly copied everywhere.

  Any help is more than welcome.

  Thank you

  Steve

  Hello Steve,.

  You can follow these steps:

  (1) open RobohelpHTML and double click the release you want to generate RHCL (launch Robohelp HTML 9-> under single Source Layout Pod-> Double click on WebHelp)

  (2) Webhelp settings window, under content, choose your default content categories

  (3) choose your table of contents Index & Drop Down Menu and save changes

  (4) generate WebHelp output of command RHCL, table of contents and the Index should appear this time

  Note: Assuming you generate WebHelp

  Hope this helps!

  Thank you.

• [CS5 Server/JSX] Generate the table of contents at the beginning of the document

  Hello

  The following script generates a table of contents:

  
    myTOCStyle = myDocument.tocStyles.itemByName("TOC");
    myMasterSpread = myDocument.masterSpreads.item("A-Master");
    myTocPage = myDocument.pages.add(LocationOptions.AT_BEGINNING, myMasterSpread);
    myIndexFrame = myDocument.textFrames.lastItem();
    myBounds = myIndexFrame.geometricBounds;
    myX1 = myBounds[1];
    myY1 = myBounds[0];
    myDocument.createTOC(myTOCStyle, true, undefined, [myX1, myY1]);
  
  

  When I run this Script on the InDesign CS5 server, it generates a table of contents, but it is not placed on the page just added at the beginning. It is placed on the first page containing the content where the table of contents is generated from. Also the added page at the beginning does not contain the elements of the master page, it's just a page of blanco.

  When I run this Script on InDesign CS5 to office, the table of contents are placed on the first page added with this script. Also, does this page contain master page items!

  How is it possible to place the table of contents (with overflow text) before the first page containing the content. The page that contains the table of contents should contain elements of the master page.

• Is there a tip action that will open and close the table of contents?

  I like that in CP5, Adobe has allowed users to change the icon associated with opening and closing of a Table of contents in layers.  Having said that, unfortunately, they show if small, I don't see what I created.  So, I was wondering, is there an advanced action or an action script that I could assign to a button that will allow my users open/close the table of contents?

  Thoughts?

  I created a quick and dirty AS3 widget that can be used in Captivate 4 and Captivate 5 projects to open / close a table of contents in overlay with your own button mode.
