Use RoboHelp Search to Search Website

Hello All,
I was wondering if it it possible to use RoboHelp's search feature to search a website that is not part of the WebHelp system.
I am using RoboHelp (WebHelp output) for context-sensitive help, and this is delivered with the application and run through the application, rather than on a website. Since this is installed on the client machine, I am trying to keep it from getting too large, and have moved more general topics out to a website. So, I would like for users to be able to search both the WebHelp content and the website content from the RoboHelp search field, if that would be possible.
Does anyone know if that can be accoplished, and if so, how?

Hi there
First off, no. RoboHelp cannot be used to search a Web Site. Unless, of course, the Web Site is one that was constructed entirely in RoboHelp.
Secondly, you posted this question in the WinHelp forum. So I'm going to move it from here to the WebHelp forum where it really belongs.
Cheers... Rick

Using external search without RoboHelp server

Is it possible to index pages external to your project in
order to conduct searches without having RoboHelp Server?
Thanks

Hi, rune1io
From what I understand, the (PPT, DOC, XLS, TXT, and PDF)
files would have to be included in the project, either in baggage
files or placed in the root of your project folder on the server.
Here is a snip from the online help regarding this:
<snip>
Enhanced indexing support for Search
In RoboHelp Server 8, for all the WebHelp Pro and FlashHelp
Pro projects, you can search for any topics and baggage files (PPT,
DOC, XLS, TXT, and PDF) included in a project. You can also add a
reference to these files in a topic, and the baggage files are
displayed in the search results.
For server-side indexing, you can copy the required baggage
files to the project folder. The RoboHelp server reads these files
and re-creates the index at the time of scheduled scanning. Also,
if you do not include these baggage files in the project, the
server still indexes them, provided they exist in the project
folder.
</snip>
So it seems that a link to an external file via HTTP or FTP
would not be indexed. I will try to seek further clarification on
this, but that's the way I read it.
Thanx,
john

Full-text Search in RoboHelp

I have downloaded JavaHelp using Sun Download Manager (download and extract JavaHelp) to activate Full-text Search in RoboHelp. But, while generating Help in RoboHelp, I get an error that JavaHelp is not installed. I am not able to understand how to Install JavaHelp. Please help.

That's the way it worked in X4 and later versions up but not including RH8. RH8 includes phrase searching in webhelp.

Using RoboHelp to create online tutorials?

Our company currently uses RoboHelp to create our Help
Systems. As a training developer, who has used a course authoring
software package for the past five years, I was wondering if
RoboHelp would be a good environment to develop training tutorials.
I love the fact that you can search and index the help systems and
thought the potential may be there to search for information within
tutorials as well.
I know Captivate is the software simulation product, however
a lot of our training material is either mainly text, or numerous
screen shots showing an individual how to use an application.
As I am new to RoboHelp, does anyone have any advice?
Thanks in advance.

Like Colum, welcome to the Forums!
(The following assumes the WebHelp Pro scenario you outlined)
>>>1. How do I set the window to have the right
frame display initially, without the left index frame? I want to
leave the index frame so that the user can access it if neccesary.
1. Make sure WebHelp Pro is your primary layout.
2. Create a new Window, call it OnePane and select the
tickbox in Window properties for One Pane and click OK. (This means
the Navigation pane (Contents, Index, Search, etc.) are hidden when
first launched.
3. Bring up the WebHelp Pro single source layout wizard.
4. Tick the box: Show navigation pane link in topics (this is
what allows the user to opt to see the Index and navigation pane if
they want.
5. Be sure to select "OnePane" as your default window you
just created and complete the wizard to publish.
6. Caveat: There is a shortcoming when you view locally from
the authoring machine. You will not be able to see the effects of
your changes. These can only viewed in a web browser pointed to
your actual WebHelp Pro site.
7. Publish to the RoboEngine server to view all the changes
you made and notice the "Show" link that allows the user to reveal
the navigation pane.
>>>2. Our Help System is in HTML, but I am thinking
of using WebHelp Pro (from a dedicated server). When I View Primary
Layout, the index frame and button at the top of the form do not
display. I get the yellow box located just below the Internet
Explorer toolbar saying 'To help protect your security, Internet
Explorer has resticted this file from showing active content that
could access your computer. Click here to for options....'. That
could be a real pain for 1200 users. Is there a way to if off for
RoboHelp WebHelp Pro?
I believe you may be encountering something that is only seen
by you because you're viewing it locally. When published, the user
would not see this. To remove this annoying message, go to Internet
Options > Advanced > scroll down to Security and tick the box
"Allow active content to run on My Computer." (Also, for more info,
do a search in the forums for "Mark of the Web")
>>>3. Can I create my own skin?
Sure. Use the WebHelp skin editor as you normally would. Give
the skin a name and use it when you publish.
Hope this helps.

Using RoboHelp with Flex

Does anybody know how to use RoboHelp with Flex? I'm a Flex
developer and am new to RoboHelp, and am trying it out to create
some online help for my Flex application. I've searched, and also
tried a couple of tutorials, but so far I haven't found anything
about how to combine the two. Thanks.

The issue is the calling of the help from Flex so I wonder if
you might do better asking this question on the Flex forums?

Can I use RoboHelp to support localization and generate help files in multiple languages?

Hi,
Can I use RoboHelp to support localization and generate help
files in multiple languages?
Can I define a layout or template for RoboHelp to insert
localized strings into the template and generate a localized help
file?
Thanks!

Hi newbie_r and welcome to the RH community.
You don't say what version of RH you have but the latest
version (RH7) has Unicode Support that allows you to produce help
files in most languages. The exceptions are mainly the right to
left languages (e.g. arabic, hebrew).
As far as the template is concerned, you can assign any text,
image to a template and it will be applied to any topics you assign
the template to.
If you haven't already, I'd download the trial version and
experiment a bit. Set up a template with what you want and then
create a couple of simple help files containing just a few topics
each. That will reassure you of RH7s capabilities in this
area.

Search in RoboHelp

Happy New Year everyone!
I found an article that provided a solution on how to categorize search results in RoboHelp. I could not post comments or ask questions on the site and thought that all the RH Gurus on this forum can help me. Please look at the referenced site.
http://www.helpscribe.com/2008/02/full-text-search-vs-keyword-search.html
I use Robohelp 10 and replaced the code in the whfhost.js with the code on the site. I get an error on the search pane. Has anyone tried this method and has it worked?
Any other alternatives?

Hi,
Thank you both for your replies. I just realized that I had posted the wrong link. The post I am referring to is:
http://www.helpscribe.com/2008/10/improving-webhelp-search-results-in.html
I am trying to improve the search in my WebHelp project and right now use most features RoboHelp offers. Synonyms, keywords in topics, and use other options given in the Search section when generating WebHelp. I wanted to see how effective it would be if I categorize the topics like mentioned in the post.
If you have tips and tricks to achieve this goal, please share it with me. I am also looking for any tips or rules followed when entering metadata on topics.

Is there a limit for external links in TOC using RoboHelp 9.2?

Hi,
This is my first time posting to the Adobe forums. Here is my problem.
I have been maintaining help projects using RoboHelp 9.2 for quite some time now to generate WebHelp. I now have four large projects that are linked through a URL in each project's TOC. Example: I have projects A B C D. In A's TOC, I include a link to B C D default topics. In B's TOC, I include a link to A C D default topics. And so on ... The fourth project (D) is new.
The problem I've encountered is with the image appearing in the TOC next to the external link entry for project D in the generated WebHelp. The image showing up for project D is different from the other two, even though the properties for that page are exactly the same as the other two. This happens in all three remaining projects (A B C). Even when I change the image (from the image index), the same image (i.e. the standard image for a topic page) appears regardless.
What should appear in all cases is image 13.gif.
(I'll have to figure out later why 19.gif is selected in the properties dialog, whereas 13.gif is actually showing up in WebHelp. Doh.)
Any ideas?
thanks,
denise

Read the first extract for the definition of backup snapshots and how they are handled by the OS.
2-Shoud I delete older backups? If for example, all I need from Time Machine is the latest backup done today, can I get rid of the 2+ yeras of backups, or do they not take up that much space?
No. Time Machine should be on a separate HDD and will take care of deleting backups when necessary on that drive.
3-Back to the issue, considering I don't have access to a an apple store for the next few months, what is my best plan of action?
I would consider installing a larger internal HDD. Capacities to 1 TB are now available.
4-I am considering buying a new macbook 15inch, and get more space, however, I'm scared that the same problem will happen again. Is this common on all macs? Will using Time Machine to "Restore" my backups bring along the issues as well?
All Macs using Time Machine will experience the same conditions. The problem is that many users do not under stand what 'Other' is and that leads to confusion. There are many essential OS files in that category that should not be touched as well as some user files. The issue is not to reduce 'Other' as such, but reduce the total amount of data on the HDD if space is becoming a premium.

This is a bit of information for folks that use Robohelp for Word.

I know this is all a day late and a follar short but for those folks that still use Robohelp for Word:
If your company is going to Windows 7, X5 will not work. You need to bump it up to at least RH8.
Even after you upgrade, if you use the tripane (winhelp_2000) view in RH for Word, it will not work on Windows 7 even with the microsoft patch. With the patch it will look like an older version of RH in winhelp_4. At least I have not been able to get it to display.
What will work is if you compile it in Webhelp. You will loose some links. I know I should be moving to Robhelp Html and I tried, but when I did that I got a lot of garbage at the top of all my topics, I lost all my external links and I would have to retrain my partner...
Now about links. My only complaint about Robohelp for Word was it's limited external linking capacity. If you use RH for Word you know you can only brouse to the net or to an htm or html document. It doesn't mean you can't link to a PDF or an excel spread sheet. You just can't brouse to it. You can manually enter the path. I just changed 740+ htm links to pdf links (pdf in same file as htm and the names were the same except for extension) and it worked. If you intend to try this back up.
Anyway, if this helps anyone great..if not thanks for letting me babble. I like my Robohelp for Word in Webhelp format.
Peggy Theo.

Thanks for posting this Peggy.
It is worth adding that there is another way of continuing to work with Word - using Linked Documents in RoboHelp HTML. You create Word documents entirely independent of RoboHelp and then create topics by linking those documents in a RoboHelp HTML project.
You cannot create WinHelp that way but WinHelp is on life support and requires users to download a viewer, you cannot distribute it. It really is time to move on from WinHelp.
RoboHelp for Word is not getting much development and does not get the new features being added to RoboHelp HTML.
Linking is covered on my site.

Enterprise Search using Sharepoint Server 2007 + SAP R/3

Hi experts,
I want to achieve an enterprise search using SharePoint Server 2007 (MOSS).
SharePoint includes the BDC (business data catalog) which allows you to communicate with the SAP System.
I read in the Microsoft whitepapers that thereu2019s a need for a web application server 6.40.
So here is the problem:
We have SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.7 with WAS 6.20. We donu2019t want to change or upgrade the SAP system.
There are ways to connect the WAS to the R/3 system e.g. RFC.
But does this still work for search in SharePoint?
Did anybody already deal with this problem?
Any other ideas connecting SharePoint to SAP in this scenario?
Best regards
Philipp Detemple

> and having requirement to upgrade OS version from B.11 to B.23. Currently server is hosting SAP R/3 Enterprise version.
So you upgrade HP-UX 11.11 to HP-UX 11.23?
> I have tried to serach SAP service market place for PAM, but could not find specific information on version upgrade from B.11 to B.23
Yes - because there is no HP-UX 23.x, only 11.23 and 11.31. For the version overview check
Note 939891 - HP-UX: End of Support Dates
Note 1075118 - SAP on HP-UX: FAQ
> My Questioin is: If we copy system as it is to new host and if we keep the same Kernel Patch 196, will it work fine or give issue?
It will work.
> So even if I got for latest patch 304 which is released on 16.11.2009, still the OS version for which it built is B.11, so if we have B.23, will it work? I would not see the possibilities of kernel upgrade at this stage.
Why no possibility for a kernel upgrade if you install a new server?
> so with same kernel will it work? What else I need to check for the migration and make sure that everything works fine on new server.
Check

Creating Context Sensitive Webhelp Using Robohelp 9

I want to create a Context sensitive Webhelp - one help topic for one page/function for web application. I'm using Robohelp 9 with Team Foundation Server 2012. I also have MSSCCI provider installed. I will be using unique ID (Map ID) or unique window names for mapping.
Below are the details about what I have and my requirements:
I have multiple module projects in Robohelp 9 integrated with Team Foundation Server 2012. I want to merge these projects to create one tree structure which will display all the functions same as application.
Which are the files that I need to give to developer to integrate Web Help?
What are the steps for linking and generating Webhelp in merged projevct?
Can we do merging of ToC in merged project and extract the ToC (.hhc file) and use it in all modules projects just like merging chms and extracting ToC?
What is the simplest way to do create the Webhelp?
Can we use a single Robohelp project for large number of topics to avoid merging?
Please suggest as soon as possible.

First take a look at Merged Help on my site. It gives detailed information about creating merged webhelp.
Can you use a single project for a large number of topics? Define large. It's a mix of topics and graphics. My experience is Rh can, not will, get slow around 4/5000 topics with a some graphics.
You give the generated help and tell them to put ALL the files on the server.

Reading (and searching, use of TOC and index) Acrobat files offline

OK - I have tried several things in effort to read PDFs offline.
The 'tools' that allow me to access these files PDFReader Pro and GoDocs are incapable of doing searches, use TOC, and index.. It is basically a picture of a PDF. They also present it in the linear form where I need to actually scroll the 343 PAGES to get to the information I want to read mid-way into the document.
Is there a realistic tool that actually properly presents PDF files offline and allows it to be used as it was intended? OOPS - correction Safari cant display this right either.... never mind ....
Thanks
Message was edited by: EmbeddedGeek
I removed an erroneous statement that safari can properly display PDFs - it can't provide search, index/toc accesses. Bogus!

On a possibly related note, see http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20004258-263.html?tag=mncol;txt for a way to ADD stuff to the TOC. I'm just passing this along, I haven't tried it.

How do you perform partial word search using PDF Open Parameters?

Hello,
We are using the 'search=' open parameter in the URL string, which open a PDF and automatically searches for a word within the PDF. It works great for whole word searches. Unfortunately, it does not work for partial word, or phrases. In other words, if I'm searching on '123456' and there is a word in the document that is '1234567', it will not find the partial word, or first 6 characters of the 7 character word. You can perform a partial or phrased search using the advance search feature of Adobe Reader. So, currently after the PDF opens, and shows no hits on the automatic search for '123456', we are able to manually search again for a partial word search, and then see matches in the document. Is there any way to specify to use a whole or partial word search when using the 'search=' open parameter, so that we can automatically match on partial and whole words? Something like 'search=123456*'?

It never worked that way. Command-F shows the page search bar.
