Search box, stop working

the search next to the address box box does not work. I can go into the options and click on the "search" tab, it will show search

You can check if you have the XML files including Google's default search engine in the browser\searchplugins file in the Firefox program folder.

If this isn't the case, then you need to reinstall Firefox.

Try to delete the file search.json and possible search - metadata.json and search.sqlite files in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the default search engines.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

Firefox will rebuild the file search.json from the default search engines in the folder "browser\searchplugins" in the Firefox program folder and the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

  • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
  • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

  • Click on the boxes stopped working

    I'm having a problem with my click boxes. This worked, but stopped. I use version 8.

    I have a navigation drag about 4 slides at the beginning. I click on this slide boxes that go to a specific slide. They have stopped working. I tried to recreate the problem and I added a few slides at the end of my project of 35 slides. When I tested a slide at the end of the project, it would jump to the correct slide. In other words, jump slide 36 to slide 38, or 36 slide in slide 39.

    Just for fun, I moved 36, my navigation test blade slide, at the front of the project. It has stopped working. Somehow, the click boxes work at the end of the project, but not at the beginning of the project.

    Any ideas?

    There are only two possibilities (know that sometimes HTML5 navigation did not work properly in 8.0.1 - but you have the same problems to SWF):

    1. something is wrong with your advanced action, or actions on the other slides
    2. your project is getting damaged.

    For the second case, attempt to copy a new blank project. In CP8 actions come along when you copy the object or slide, they are attached to. personally I would have created action shared, then you are sure that you can reuse them.

  • Google search links stopped working

    What is hell? Today, I noticed that the links provided by Google search no longer work. If I click on a link suggested by google search, nothing happens! The same screen is presented. I tested it with Firefox 10 and Firefox 6. Same result. Only the previews of google are available, but the actual source links are not clickable.

    I also tried the same exact search with IE, and I'm sad to say that the problem is not with Google.

    Disable Adblock did not change this anomaly.

    Not sure, but this seems to happen and shuts off when cookies are blocked. It might be that this change was not completely turned upside down in my area. This Add-on seems to help at the moment and also with cookies off.

  • Tab 'Search' has stopped working. CHMS

    I maintain several. CHMS for a customer. For some reason I can't understand, the tab "Search" of all. CHM that I've recently updated is no longer works. Any attempt to research translates into "no topics found." I checked that the older versions of. CHMS have tabs to search for work, but everything. CHM that I've updated this year is more equipped with a 'Search' tab. I even took one of the projects of the last year, is made absolutely no changes, recompiled, and voila, search is broken.

    I checked that I have all the settings correctly on the Windows Properties dialogue box, as well as all necessary. DLL is correctly installed and registered.

    The only change in my setup, it's that I've upgraded to IE7.0 (finally!) earlier this year. And I follow all the updates of Windows. I've been using and continue to use RoboHelp HTML X5.0.2. (I have not upgraded because, in my opinion, it was not worth my $500. I am a independent and stood for a more robust upgrade).

    Any ideas? Frankly, I guess that an upgrade of Microsoft has messed up the work and I'm stuck, unless I have spend money...

    Nita Beck

    I found the solution, after picking up on an idea from Rick. Although I checked for and found the .dll file Rick mentnioned, I found that I was missing the itcc.dll which is part of the 1.x Microsoft HTML workshop. Once I have recorded this .dll and then recompiled in RoboHelp, the Search tab once more working properly.

  • Click on the boxes stopped working on the project Cap 3

    Preview and in the published file, my click boxes no longer work. Used to, but stopped and I'm pulling my hair out trying to make them work again. What happens is I click on them, and action that is supposed to happen does not work. This is true regardless of browser (and, as I have noted, they do not work in the preview either).

    I have only four who are on the last slide of my project. Two of them are 'Replay' (supposed to go to slide 1) and 'Close' (allows to drag continue at the end of the project where I project designated to close). The other two are the boxes that are set on "send to."

    So far, I've recreated them, I created in another project where they work and imported, and I deleted the slide and recreated the slide from scratch.

    There seems to be something with the project that makes any box click does not work.

    Someone at - it experience with this?

    I discovered the source of the problem. I was using a custom preloader. If I use a standard, the problem goes away.

  • RoboHelp HTML Version 11 and RoboHelp HTML to 2015 - why SEARCH has stopped working

    Have a Robo HTML V11 existing project that has generated hundreds of times successfully. Updated for Robo 2015, copied all project files in a new folder.

    1. Convert the copied project of Robo2015
    2. Generated WebHelp and copied to the server
    3. Continually receive error message when you try to use the SEARCH.
      Receive the following error messages:
      error_1.png
      Then
      error_2.png
    4. Cannot clear the error or reset the SEARCH.

    Reinstalled Robo HTML V11

    The original project folder has been opened in RoboHelp HTML V11 and now this project, when generated, no more a work of RESEARCH.

    Tried to delete the whxdata folder in the hope that will regenerate recreate properly, obviously did not work.

    Can someone shed light on this situation and provide a solution. I have updated the online help for the application, but may not post an online help system that doesn't have a SEARCH function works

    I just remembered this thread.
