How Do RoboHelp 9 WebHelp Generated Files Handle Map IDs and Aliases?

The text below was written by our team's developer/architect. I am the help author who uses RoboHelp to write content and generate the help files, but I am clueless how it all gets generated and is deployed. Please help. We use RoboHelp 9. I use it in Windows XP and our app and help run on IE 7, 9, and Firefox (multiple versions).
"Our application uses the numeric identifiers associated with the Map ID. For example, to get to the <appname>_home_page.htm file, we use the number 1053. <appname> = pecs, in this example.
All of this is used in a call to a RoboHelp method defined in the RoboHelp_CSH.js file. The mehtod we are calling is the RH_ShowHelp() JavaScript method and the code to perform the call, when you click on Page Help, is this:
RH_ShowHelp(0, ''/pecsHelp/index.htm>pecsHelp',HH_HELP_CONTEXT,topic);
Topic is translated to the Map ID number for the page help. HH_HELP_CONTEXT is defined in the RoboHelp_CSH.js file. This method translates into a URL and from what I have seen, the URL that gets generated is this:
http://{server}[:port]/pecsHelp/index.htm/{server}[:port]/pecsHelp/index.htm#<id=1053>>pecsHelp
Server and port get replaced with the appropriate values. I have no clue how id=1053 is supposed to get translated to mean "pecs_home_page.htm". If you check the PECS_help.h file, you will see the following entry:
#define PECS_Home_Page1 1053
Then in the RoboHelp alias file (PECS 3.0.ali), the following line is in the file:
<alias name="PECS_Home_Page1" link="pecs_home_page.htm"> </alias>
But both of these files are used during the WebHelp generation process and I don't know how the WebHelp generated files handle the Map ID and aliases."

You need to assign the numbers you find in the pecs_help.h file to topics in your help. You do this in Context Sensitive Help > Map Files > All Map IDs. (From RH7, but I assume the location is similar in RH9.) This creates the entries in the .ali file.
Peter Grainge suggests a couple of sites to read for a greater understanding here:
http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/calling_webhelp/using_map_ids.htm
(Although the second site is based on RH X5, the basic concepts and procedures should be very similar. )

How do a scan a file from my scanner and make it a PDF. . . . I do not see this choice in the Adobe program?

How do a scan a file from my scanner and make it a PDF. . . . I do not see this choice in the Adobe program?
In the past I would simply place a copy of the document on my scanner, then selected create PDF from scanner. However, there is now no create PDF from scanner alternative, option or choice. The only option available is selected file to convert to PDF. what am I to do?

That would have been a function of your scanning software. Adobe Reader is only used to view the pdf that your scanning software created.

How can I convert multiple files at one time and not one at a time

How can I convert multiple files at one time and not one at a time

Hi Plissey1950,
Sorry for the lengthy delay to a response. Are you trying to convert multiple files to individual PDF files at the same time? (not combine them). If so, you'll need to use Adobe Acrobat for this function. The CreatePDF service does not have the ability to convert multiple files to multiple individual PDF files.
Thanks,
David

hi experts,
We have written start routine to get the storage location text and sending to File located at Application server through OPEN HUB.
here is the code written in the Transformations
In the global section
Text for 0STOR_LOC
    DATA: l_0stor_loc_text TYPE HASHED TABLE OF /bi0/tstor_loc
          WITH UNIQUE KEY stor_loc.
    DATA: l_0stor_loc_text_wa TYPE /bi0/tstor_loc.
and in the code to get the text
" Populate the lookup table for 0STOR_LOC
    *SELECT * from /BI0/TSTOR_LOC*
      into CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF table L_0STOR_LOC_TEXT
      FOR ALL ENTRIES IN SOURCE_PACKAGE WHERE
              STOR_LOC = SOURCE_PACKAGE-STOR_LOC.
im sure there is problem with the Routine only. i think i need to change the code if so please provide me the modified one.
thanks

VBA How to download a generated file from IE

Hi guys,
Apologies if this is an easy one, I couldn't find anything that helped me with my problem and was hoping someone might point me in the right direction for which object/argument to use.
I'm trying to automate the downloading of a report, it will be a CSV file however it's not a static address (i.e. www.hello.com/files/goodbye.csv)
The website is a CMS with database backend and upon clicking a button, the report is generated and the user will be prompted to download a resulting file (once it has been prepared).
It is this action that I am trying to automate, however I'm not sure how to get IE to click the button and automatically saving instead of prompting the user at all (ideally this will be done with IE Visible being false in the end).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Best regards,
Jeff.

You can use an API to do the work too!

How to use a ".generate" file in JDeveloper 11g ?

hi
Using JDeveloper 11g (11.1.1.0.1) I created a Database Diagram and dropped both SCOTT.EMP and SCOTT.DEPT tables on it, creating Offline Database Objects.
After that I used the "Generate..." option from the right-click menu on the SCOTT Offline Database Source in JDeveloper, to generate a SQL script.
Step 6 of 6 allowed me to "Save settings for reuse", resulting in a ".generate" file (see GenerateSQLFromDatabaseObjectsStep6Of6.png).
question
How should I be able to reuse such a ".generate" file, the right-click menu does not have a "Generate" option (like JDeveloper 10g has) or something similar, see GenerateSQLRightClickMenuForGenerateFile.png.
many thanks
Jan Vervecken

Thanks for your reply Susan.
You were not able to access it via metalink as it was categorized as an internal bug rather than a production version bug. Since it has now been fixed it is unlikely that I can get it changed to allow it to be seen via metalink.about "unlikely", see also ...

How to read a XML file from BLOB column and insert in a table - PL/SQL Only

Hi,
To make data load more simple to end user instead placing file on the server and use SQL-LOADER, I came up with new idea that using oracle ebusiness suite attachment functionality. that loads a XML file from local PC to a database column(table is fnd_attachments, default data type is BLOB over here).
I tried with DBMS_LOB and didnt get around.
Please can anyone tell me how to read the BLOB column using PL/SQL and store the data in a oracle table. Here's the sample XML file and table structure FYI.

Imported a .h map file, no Map IDs show

Background: RoboHelp 10 project, linked to a FrameMaker 11 book, HTML Help output. No errors or missing resources on update of Fm book.
After linking the project to a Fm book with TopicAlias markers selected for CSH, I imported a .h map file used by the developers and did a Force Update All. The imported map file shows up under the Map Files node in the Project Set-up pod. But when I double-click it, nothing displays in the Map IDs panel on the left side of the Edit Map IDs dialog box.
I thought 1) specifying TopicAlias markers for CSH during link setup, and 2) importing the developers' .h file would map the IDs to the topics.
Am I doing something wrong in the linking or .h import steps? I really don't want to have to manually edit the topic IDs in BSSCDefault.h--there are hundreds of them.

Umm, if you’re using the markers from your FM files to set the mapping, why are you getting something from the developers? In your workflow I would expect you to be sending them your .h file, not the other way round ;>)

User, please always tell us your jdev version as the solution might depend on it.
Instead of posting some code, can you please elaborate on the use case? From the code I don'T understand what you try to do. Data (file) uploaded through the af:inputFile is binary. The file may only be a text file, but it might be an image. The inputFile doen not know as it only represents the data stream send from the client.
In you code I don't see that you actually read the data from the stream, neither do I see any action on the stream. Can you describe what you mean by
but I can not make it work ...You may read http://tompeez.wordpress.com/2011/11/26/jdev11-1-2-1-0-handling-imagesfiles-in-adf-part-1/ for more info about file handling in ADF

How to open animated .GIF files in Photoshop CS3 and newer

Q: Since ImageReady is long gone from Photoshop, how can I open animated GIF files in Photoshop CS3 and newer?
A: File -> import-> video to layers.
In the dialogue box type "*.*" to show all file types.
Select your GIF file and which frames to import.
They will now be available in your animation palette.

Zeno
curt y, sorry for the late reply, I tried that but I doesn't work. I have to choose at least two files in the Load Layers window in order for the OK button to be available and then some action script uses the different files to make layers and merges them but not from the frames of the gif file. I can undo through the script to see what it did but it never accessed the frames of the gif file, just the first frame. Choosing "make frames from layers" in the animation palette only puts the original files into layers - that is only the first frame of the gif file.
I guess I'm out of luck with the 64 bit version of Photoshop as Zeno suggested :-(
What program would you people suggest for opening each frame from gif files?

How to call a jsp file from an servlet and access the jsp file objects??

Hi everybody
I have an jsp file where it contains a vector object with some data and I have a servlet that needs to access this vector object . How can my servlet call for this jsp page and get the vector object. ?
then an applet will be calling this servlet to get some other object created with the data contained within this vector object...so each time Applet ask the servlet for the object the servlet need to call for this jsp page somehow
My main question is the communication servlet-jsp
please if u have any clue I will appreciate it
thanks

Hi
There are several ways to share objects between JSPs/Servlets.
You can share objects by putting them in the request-in which case the objects lifetime is limited by that of the request, Another way is to store them in the session, againg the lifetime is limited by the lifetime of the session. To have objects that have to persistent over the application life-span use the servletContext to store the objects.
Any good tutorial should help you get started. Please see the link below for a tutorial on Servlets/JSPs
Note: Local variables in the JSP cannot be shared with other components as their scope is limited to that particular Page/Servlet.
Link: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/servlets/
Good Luck!

I am a new Mac user. How do I easily move files to new locations and folders in Finder, like I was used to doing with Windows Explorer?

I am a new Mac user, converting from the Windows world. How do I easily transfer files from one folder location to another in Finder, like I was used to doing in Windows Explorer?

You can expand Finder into multi-panes, I am not at my Mac right now to get the exact key strokes so don't want to mislead you. Do so many things on auto-pilot that when someone asks I need the machine so I can get the exact things to click on.
But you can get the multi-pane view and drag and drop from pane to pane.

HOw to create a Batch file for java application and whats the use of this ?

HI,
How to create a Batch file for java application ?
And whats the use of creating batch file ?
Thanks in advance

First of all, you're OT.
Second, you can find this everywhere in the net.
If you got a manifest declaring main class (an classpath if needed), just create a file named whatever.bat, within same directory of jar file, containing:
javaw -jar ./WhateverTheNameOfYourJarIs.jar %*By the way, assuming a Windows OS, you can just double click the jar file (no batch is needed).
Otherwise use:
javaw -cp listOfJarsAndDirectoriesSeparedBySemiColon country/company/application/package/className %*Where 'country/company/application/package/' just stands for a package path using '/' as separator instead of '.'
Don't specify the .class extension.
Javaw only works on Windows (you asked for batch, I assumed .BAT, no .sh), in Linux please use java.exe (path may be needed, Windows doesn't need it 'cause java's executables are copied to system32 folder in order to be always available, see PATH environment variable if you don't know what I'm talking about) and use ':' as classpath (cp) separator.
The '%***' tail is there in order to pass all parameters, it only works on Windows, refer to your shell docs for other OSs (something like $* may work).
This way you have a command you can call to launch your code (instead of opening NetBeans just to see your app working). You could schedule tasks on it or just call it in any command prompt (hope you know what it is 'cause there have been people in this very same forum with no clue about it, if not just hold the 'Windows button' and press 'R', then type 'cmd' and run it).
Finally add dukes and give 'hem away.
Bye.

How do I put a file in my path and chmod it +x?

I want to transfer karaoke files from my mac to my iphone (to use with karaoke anywhere). On a different message board someone explained how to do it, but I have no idea how to put a file in my path and chmod it +x; I know very little about computers.
If it helps, the explanation that I don't understand is in post 6 of the following thread: http://forum.joltsoft.net/topic/32/bulk-transfer/

Create a subdirectory call bin
mkdir $HOME/bin
Put the qsend php script in the bin directory. Make the qsend php script executable
chmod +x $HOME/bin/qsend
Add the following to your shell initialization file (more on the name in a moment). You can use an editor such as nano from the Terminal, or Fraise (free download), or TextWrangler (free download)
export PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"
About the initialization file. It will be either .bash_profile or .profile (NOTE: by default neither file will exist on your system, unless you created one in the past).
Because these names start with a dot, they are hidden from the Finder, so you will need to use the Terminal and the "ls -a" command
ls -a $HOME/.bash_profile $HOME/.profile
If you already have a .bash_profile, add the export PATH="..." to .bash_profile
If you do not have .bash_profile, but you do have a .profile, then add the export to .profile
If you do not have either of those files, then create .bash_profile using nano, Fraise, or TextWrangler.
You can find out more information about bash shell initialization files using the command "man bash".
Once you have added your export PATH="..." command, quit the Terminal, and restart a new session, which will cause your bash shell to read the initialization file you just modified.
You should now be able to use your qsend script.
