"Contents,Index,Search" tabs dont stay hi-lighted when active in chrome

I'm using RoboHelp v9.02 and Chrome v18. I've had several issues with my output in chrome that i was able to resolve except this one.  I use custom images for selected & unselected buttons.  The output is on a server and everything functions properly except for the toolbar buttons' selected action.  Safari is doing the same thing but IE, FF, & Opera work fine.
appreciate any help on this

I think you will need to report that as a bug as far as Chrome is concerned. Safari on a PC is not a supported browser but if you get the same behaviour with Safari on a Mac, the latter is supported and that too would then be a bug.
I have only tested on Safari but got the result you describe. The button did function and what was shown below indicated what was selected so hopefully your users will not complain.

  • CHM buttons are not localized in a French project (shows English Contents, Index, Search, Print, Hide buttons)

    I opened an old WinHelp project into my new RoboHelp 7. When
    I generate the CHM, even with the Project Settings in RoboHelp set
    to French and running in a French Windows operating system (MS
    Windows XP Pro 2002 SP 2), the CHM output is still in English. The
    buttons display in English (Contents, Index, Search, Print, Hide
    buttons). The title bar of the CHM also says "HTML
    Help" even though the project title in the Project
    Settings is "Aide en ligne...".
    My Windows Regional Settings through the Control Panel -
    Regional Options tab is set French (France). On the Languages tab I
    under Text Services and Input Languages, Details button, I selected
    French (France) French. On the Advanced tab I selected French. Then
    I rebooted.
    On the language bar on my Task pane, I selected FR. The CHM
    still displays in English.
    Please help! I have to produce 4 CHMS in languages other than
    English today.
    Thanks!

    GinaL, would you be able to give us an update? Did the CHM
    files look ok on a PC with a true French OS installed?
    To avoid having to rewrite everything, I've written the
    following info/instructions for my team -- though I'm not yet sure
    they're 100% correct:
    After I reported this issue to Adobe, they worked on the
    problem for several days. They even sent me a new
    HtmSingleSourceHtmlHelp.dll file that was supposed to solve the
    problem. But it didn't work correctly. No matter what contortions
    we put ourselves through, we couldn't get both of these items
    correct in the CHM file at the same time, namely:
    Index compiled in correct alphabetical order accdg to the
    language of the help project.
    Correctly translated help title showing in the caption,
    regardless of the user's Windows regional settings. (For example,
    we wanted "FORMS-Hilfe zu FORMS 5-3" to appear as the caption of
    the German version of FORMS help, even if our regional settings
    were set to English.)
    I think we'd all agree that the index has to be in
    alphabetical order. So from what I've seen, this is what we have to
    do when compiling a non-English version of help using RH7:
    1. Set up the project with the foreign name.
    2. Set the language in the project settings. And in the
    Project Settings dialog, click Advanced and check out the LNG File
    tab to make sure it's using a translated version.
    3. Ensure that the Window Caption setting is correct in each
    window included in the project. (On RoboHelp's Project tab, open
    the Windows folder, double-click each window in turn, and check the
    settings.)
    4. Set the Language setting in the HHP file to Language=[hex
    value for that language]. I found a bunch of them listed on this
    web page. Someone else might be able to find a better source:
    https://svn.origo.ethz.ch/scoop/es_scoop_60/library/i18n/locale/nls/i18n_nls_lcid_tools.e
    5. Change your Windows regional settings to the same language
    as the help project. (Reboot if prompted.)
    6. Recommended, for safety's sake: Delete the CPD file.
    7. Open the project and compile using RH7.
    8. Check the index's sort order -- is it in alphabetical
    order according to the language of the project?
    9. Check the help caption -- make sure it's not "HTML Help".
    Note: Any customized buttons in your CHM should appear
    correctly translated, but other buttons (Contents, Index, Search)
    still appear in English -- at least they do on my PC, even though I
    did step 2 above. We need to check whether those buttons appear
    correctly when the PC is actually running a true foreign version of
    Windows, and not just with temporarily adjusted Windows settings.
    OR -- is anyone else able to get these to appear translated in the
    CHM file?
    Does anyone have anything to add? Other solutions? Easier
    procedures? Better results to report?
    Thank you
    Eileen

  • Contents/Index/Search/Glossary toolbar

    The Contents/Index/Search/Glossary toolbar in my WebHelp
    project only displays the text for one tab at a time.
    For example, by default the project opens with the Contents
    tab displayed. You can see the word "Contents" with the blue
    background. However, for the rest of the tabs, you can only see the
    icons on a white background. If you click on an icon, for example,
    the Index icon, then the word "Index" and blue background display.
    I want all the tabs to display with their words and on a blue
    background at the same time. Can any of you help me? Thanks!

    Welcome to the forum.
    If you are using a skin, it is as simple as double clicking
    the skin and setting the colours and text to what you want.
    As described, there will no difference between the tab with
    focus and the other tabs. Some small difference does assist
    usability.

  • The 'Content, index, search' section of my help is not working in Mozilla

  • Index & Search Tabs have garbage characters and no search box

    Index and Search Tabs have numbers in place of the "search"
    box. Although, the generated view looks perfect, the file
    (WHLST10.htm) contains the same numbers and missing search box. I
    am using X5 version. I import a MS Word file without an index and
    am not selecting "Convert Index" on Conversion Options. Have also
    removed "Auto-create styles from inline formatting" and "Convert
    references into hyperlinks." Still getting same result. View
    attachment.

    Hi STCSherri and welcome to our community
    I'm guessing that you have either enabled the Section 508
    check box or you have opted for the "Pure HTML" output. Both of
    these settings are found in your Single Source Layouts pseudo
    folder. Expand that folder, then right-click the layout and select
    Properties from the context menu.
    The first dialog you see should have a check box labeled
    "Section 508 Compliant Output". If that check box is not selected,
    click the Next > button twice. You should be at the WebHelp
    Options - WebHelp screen. In the "Navigation Pane Preferred Format"
    area, where is the option configured? My guess is that it's "Pure
    HTML". Try changing to perhaps DHTML > Pure HTML.
    If all your options appear to be correctly configured and you
    are STILL seeing the odd behavior, I would then ask which browser
    and version you are using to display your help.
    Cheers... Rick

  • What's up with the InDesign tab ruler staying on desktop when you go to another application...any on

    When I  am working in InDesign using the tab ruler, then go to another program, whether its an option-click to hide InDesign or clicking on another program's window, either way the tab ruler stays up while all of InDesign's and its pallets and art boards disappear. It's kind of annoying that it actually has to be clicked to close so it goes away.

    I'm running Mountain Lion on an Intel Mac, version 8 of ID in CS6. But I've seen this problem since CS4 on on a PPC. It's like the tab ruler isn't connected or related to InDesign. While all of the other pallet windows become inactive and disappear, the tab ruler stays right there on the screen.

  • My new tab opens with chrome://quick_start/content/index.html on the adress bar. how do i get rid of it

    after installing camstudio i'm stuck with this. although my Firefox isn't disturbed i wanna rid it asap.help!

    Note that such a chrome URL shows a problem with an installed extension (Firefox uses the chrome protocol to access built-in files and files used by extensions).
    In this case a quick_start related extension is involved (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions).
    *chrome://quick_start/content/index.html

  • How to apply conditional build tags to the topic title that is displayed in Search tab of CHM?

    I have the project in which 2 different words are used to reffer to one objects (this word/term depends on the customer). All other information related to functionality, steps, etc. are common. So:
    In the help content (body of the files), I created 2 conditional build tags (CBT) for these terms.
    In TOC, if topic title contains the term, I created 2 different topics reffered to the single topic file, but the title of the topic shows correct term (depends on CBT).
    File names of this topics contain only term1.
    The problem occurs when I generate CHM for CBT2 and search for the term1 (marked with CBT1) using the Search tab. All occurrencies where term1 presence in the file name, appear in the found results.
    How can I resolve the issue?
    These topics must be found by search (that's why "Exclude from search" option is not a decision).

    Ahhh, you are correct. I believe it was Version 10 introduced that.
    So here's what I'd suggest. Even though you are unable to use a variable in a Topic Title, it can still be used in other places such as the TOC, the Index and in the Topic content. So I'd still recommend that you declare and use a variable for those items. Just to simplify things.
    As for any topics that have the term in the title, you could create two topics. One with the term one way and the other with the term the opposite way. Then use a Conditional Build Tag to exclude and remove the one that shouldn't be found.
    This may cause you a bit of a maintenance issue by having the same topic content in more than one place. (one for each topic)
    So to overcome that, you would be able to add the main body information to a topic and use an Inline Frame in the two topics that would then simply be shells with appropriate Topic Titles. Either that or declare a snippet and use the snippet in both topics. Put the main part in the snippet.

  • RoboHelp8: Search Tab takes time to show results

    Hi,
    I am experiencing yet another irritating problem with RoboHelp 8. When I deploy my web help, my search tab takes longer than usual to load search results. The Contents, Index and Glossary tabs are working fine.

    Hello Seemeen,
    Before publishing your project please check the Web Help Properties (from SSL Layout) in "Search Options" (Next Page), "Enable substring search" must be unchecked, screenshot attached :
    Hope this help !!
    Thanks

  • Missing: Search Tab

    I'm trying to output a project into a CHM file using RoboHelp 8, and the resulting output completely lacks a Search tab. It's got a Contents tab, an Index tab, and that's it. (The project doesn't have a glossary, so the lack of glossary is no big surprise.) I searched through the forums, and the closest problems I saw were from people whose search tabs "didn't work." However, the fix in that situation (re-registering some DLL files), didn't work for me. I'm hoping someone out there has some insight into how to find a missing search tab. Thanks!

    Hi Shawn
    Sorry, but I'm unfamiliar with Frame at this stage of the game. I think the placeholders come into play here. So you may need to experiment with inserting those.
    When you create output from RoboHelp, you are able to choose the specific Index you wish to include in the output. Have you ensured you have done this? Additionally, I do believe that for a merged CHM setup a couple of things have to be in place for the index to show.
    The master project has to have at lest one keyword defined and mapped to a topic
    The index must be configured as Binary
    To add a keyword to the master you will need to display the Index Designer pod. Unfortunately it's not straightforward. You do it by expanding the Index pseudo-folder in the Project Manager pod. Then double-click the index listed.
    Now you add a term to the index.
    From here you ensure Binary is enabled. Click File > Project Settings...
    Then when you generate output, ensure you are pointing at the right index.

  • How to add search tab in the .chm file

    Hi All,
    All these days, I was using RH -5 to create the .chm file. Today, I moved onto RH -9. The chm file had the Search option enabled automatically in RH-5. But in RH-9, Glossary option alone is available and I am not able to add Search tab adjacent to the Index tab. Please refer to the screenshot for more clarification.
    Please help me to solve this as the client would expect Search tab for sure.
    Regards,
    Lata

    Hi Lata
    What you are showing in your image is a mismatch. The tab says Glossary but the contents of the tab show Search.
    I think in this case I would suggest attempting to define a new window with the attributes you need. Then configure that window as the default for the layout you are using.
    You define the window by:
    1. Ensure Microsoft HTML Help is the default layout.
    2. Click View > Pods > Project Set-up and you should see the windows there.
    Cheers... Rick
