Firefox "Hide" button issue

Hey everyone,
I'm using RoboHelp Office X5.02 and I'm experiencing the
issue in Firefox in which the Webhelp "hide" button doesn't
display. I found a response to this issue last year, and it said to
find and edit the "whtbar.js" script in C:\Program Files\RoboHelp
Office\RoboHTML\WebHelp5Ext\template_skin and
\template_skinpreview\template_skin so that the line that contains
"else
if(sType==”hide2”&&(!gbNav4)&&(!gbOpera))"
is shortened to just "else if(sType==”hide2”).
So I made the fixes in these directories AND in the folder in
which I published the output. However, when I regenerate the
output, the whtbar.js file reverts back to the original file, even
though I changed it in the RoboHelp directory.
I KNOW this fix works because I did it once before in another
help project, which has been republished several times since (and
the hide button still displays in Firefox)
Why wouldn't my changes "stick" this time? What should I
check or do differently?
Thanks,
Jim

Jim,
Use the old tried-and-true method of copying whtbar.js to
another directory, then copying it over the file created by
RoboHelp during regeneration. I have several files like that
(hacked) and I keep them in a separate folder and do the paste
first thing after building the help. RoboHelp overwrites changes to
most files when it runs.
HTH,
Chris

Everytime I open a website apart from popular ones, firefox shows ads with open/hide buttons which are not served by the website actually. What to do?

if i could show you a screen shot.... that would have cleared the situation. ads show up in left bottom corner with open/hide button in a frame. and the same ads show up in every html plugin on the webpage especially in facebook social plugins. however on google, mozilla, facebook, twitter there comes no ad like this. Its very annoying. I recently uninstalled firefox for the same reason but nightly is having the same problem. and let me tell you there is no such thing in other browsers like chrome and i.explorer. I like firefox i dont want to change it but i will have to if the problem persisted. :( please help.

hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

Hide button in Firefox

Hi,
I just built a project in RH X5 with a skin that has an image
for the "Hide" button. It works great in IE, but doesn't show up in
Firefox.
Is there a fix for this or is something else that we're
waiting for Firefox to fix with the next version?
Thanks,
Jim

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

How to change the search provider when using the Firefox Home Button Search feature?

In Firefox itself I have configured duckduckgo as my default search provider.
But when I use the Firefox Home Button Search it is always set to google and I do not see any option to change that?
I like the Firefox Home Button Search (or whatever it's called) otherwise, but it's annoying that it does not use the default from Firefox.
I use the Google Now Launcher.

Exit button issue in Captivate 5

Hi,
This is regarding the exit button on the playback controls. I have been using Captivate from version 2. Recently, started using version 5. When I published my simulation, the exit button is not working as earlier. It is also not working from- web server(IIS, Apache), when opened as pop-up as well. In local too however not working. I tried in both IE 7 and Firefox latest version.
I have seen the response from Adobe on this issue on this forum. It was quite surprising; it did not talk about the solution at all;
What I am not sure about is -
1. Why the exit button was working earlier versions.. why is it not working in latest?
2. Why should when simple code like top.close(); works fine (when coded inside the Captivate)?
3. Why is Adobe not acknowledging the issue?
4. Why there is no working around provided in the forums for this issue?
Could anybody please help me understanding this problem? I am really frustrated.
Thanks.

Happy New to all as well!
You are absolutely correct! The moment reporting is activated, the EXIT no longer functions. Although in my case, we are not using the time/slider bar but custom navigation buttons with an exit button on the last slide (and at the top of each slide).
This whole EXIT button issue (not just Cp 5 but Cp 6 as well) is nearly bringing me to the point of tears! This is really ridiculous! I am in a tough position right now where my manager may be wondering if I am right person for this job because I cannot make a little EXIT button work in our lessons.
"Solutions" or excuses that I have received
- Just remove the EXIT button -- No, we use a standard corporate template which hundreds of employees are already familiar with. To remove the EXIT button and instruct the learner to just close the browser would be unacceptable and a rather inelegant way to exiting a lesson.
- It is a tough issue that isn't Captivate's fault
With all due respect to the awesome person who keeps stating that, I have a feeling that you have not used other rapid elearning tools. Building an EXIT button in all the other major elearning tools is easy and works every time.
The source of my personal difficulty is that every other course that was built by previous developers (not using Captivate), all open in a child window and all have a working EXIT button.
I believe the PRIMARY reason for this problem might be in the fact that... inexplicably... Captivate does not offer an option to start a lesson in a CHILD window (i.e. separate browser window). This is why no javascript in the world will allow the tab to close (e.g. EXIT button). Closing a tab or browser window via javascript only works when the same instance was previously opened by a script using the window.open method. In other words, you can only use the javascript method to close an instance that was spawned via javascript.
This should explain why lessons published in Lectora (et al) always have working EXIT buttons every time and in every browser (minor exception is Opera for unrelated reasons).
The second red box is just another one of my problems with Captivate 6 (not related to this topic).
Solution????
I've been racking my brain trying to modify Captivate's HTML/javascript in order to carry over the AICC (or SCORM - same process) variables into a child window.
Like another participant stated, you can't simply rename the original index.html to index2.html and create a redirection like this:
<script type="text/javascript">
window.open("index2.html","lesson","location=0,toolbar=0,status=0,resizable=1,width=975,he ight=600");</script>
<body>
Yes, I tried this as well... but unfortunately, it breaks the AICC to LMS connection. *BUT* I can promise one thing... using the above redirection, does guarantee that your EXIT button works every time! Pity the LMS connection breaks!
QUESTION?
Does anyone have advanced knowledge of javascript in order to code the INDEX.HTML to open the lesson in a child windows AND maintain a connection to the LMS?

My operating system windows xp : downloaded firefox 4 but dont have the new firefox menu button?

Im running windows xp sp3
just upgraded to firefox 4
browser doesn't show new firefox menu button ?

The new interface is only default on Windows Vista and Windows 7. To get it on Windows XP you need to hide the menu bar. To do that in the View menu select Toolbars, then click on the "Menu Bar" entry.
If you need access to the menus you can press either Alt or F10 to temporarily display them.

HIde button on events

Hi,
Can some body elaborate how to hide buttons on events.
Regards
Sameer

Hi,
You can use PPR.
Step 1. create a VO which contains one transient attribute of type boolean
Step 2. Base button rendered property using SPEL
Step 3. Initialize your VO for PPR(inintialization includes insertion of one row and set the attribute as True)
Step 4. In the event handler where you want to hide button just set it false.
Sample code:
//Code to hide button
public void handlePoApproveChangeEvent()
// Get the special, single-row application properties and make the first
// (only) row current.
OAViewObject vo = (OAViewObject)findViewObject("SampleBrowserPVO1");
OARow row = (OARow)vo.first();
// Get the value of the view object attribute with the PO Approval
// status.
OAViewObject poVO = (OAViewObject)findViewObject("PurchaseOrderHeadersVO1");
OARow poRow = (OARow)poVO.getCurrentRow();
String status = (String)poRow.getAttribute("StatusCode");
// Set the application property values based on the PO Approval
// status value.
if ("APPROVED".equals(status))
row.setAttribute("HideButton", Boolean.FLASE);
//Code to initialize VO
public void initializePPRExamplePage()
// Create purchase order header
OAViewObject appPropsVO =
(OAViewObject)findViewObject("SampleBrowserPVO1");
if (appPropsVO != null)
// If the VO already has a row, skip its initialization. Note that
// calling getFetchedRowCount() won't perform a DB hit on a VO with
// no SELECT and only transient attributes.
if (appPropsVO.getFetchedRowCount() == 0)
// Setting the match fetch size to 0 for an in-memory VO
// prevents it from trying to query rows.
// Calling executeQuery() is a small workaround to a known
// BC4J issue that ensures that modified rows in this
// transient view object are not lost after commit. See
// View Objects in Detail for additional information about
// both of these calls.
appPropsVO.setMaxFetchSize(0);
appPropsVO.executeQuery();
// You must create and insert a row in the VO before you can start
// setting properties.
Row row = appProposVO.createRow();
appPropsVO.insertRow(row);
// Set the primary key value for this single-row VO.
row = (OARow)appPropsVO.first();
row.setAttribute("RowKey", new Number(1));
row.setAttribute("HideButton",Boolean.TRUE);
// Initialize the application properties VO (and the UI) based on the
// default PO approval value set on the underlying object.
handlePoApproveChangeEvent();
else
// throw exception
} // end initializePPRExamplePage()
SPEL Parameter:
${oa.myVOName.HideButton}
Hope this help, Please refer JDeveloper guide for Topic Dynamic User Interface.

Can the Firefox menu button be hidden so I can use just the menu bar?

When I start firefox initially the menu button shows up, but if I open up other firefox windows then no firefox menu button. I want to hide the button so I can use just the menu bar. I had no firefox menu button until today, and no recent changes to my addons that I know of.

The problem seems to be more than just a corrupted system file because it even with a partition restore firefox does a partial reset of addon configurations. The initial window with the firefox menu button then won't allow addon configuration, I have to start up a secondary window to do this.

FireFox's buttons on the taskbar often change position

Firefox's buttons on the taskbar often change position. If I click on a button frequently (in order to bring the window forward), the button for that window will start to jump to the end of the other buttons. Since the buttons are no longer in the same order, I end up having to search for the right button constantly. This is a huge annoyance.

I am guessing that there is an auto hide feature turned on for your taskbar:
Try this: "Reset taskbar to normal, open FF maximised then set auto hide."

Hide button glitch in Mail App: iPhone 5

Hi guys!
I have a problem with my mail app. When I click the 'Hide' button in an email, only the 'From:' part of the sender line is hidden! Can I fix this? I think clicking the hide button SHOULD hide the recipients of the email in the header.
I have iOS 8 by the way.
HELP PLEASE!!!
Thanks

@Meg St._Clair : Hope this link could explain the issue http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rtBEqJFV3g
@ Roshanalex : I did a restore, but still the issue persists. May I know whether you too had a same problem
Thanks.

My wife's new iphone4 (a replacement for a 5 month-old iphone 4 with home button issues) is not recognized by itunes. Every other ios device in the house using that computer and Apple ID is. Any suggestions?

My wife's brand new iphone4 (which was a replacement for a 4month-old iphone4 with home button issues) is not recognized by itunes. Every other ios device on the computer/Apple ID in question is recognized and syncs perfectly. Any suggestions?

If the new phone has already been setup, make sure the phone and iTunes are both set to the same account.
You might also have to authorize this computer for the new device under the store menu.

My Firefox menu button has disappeared. Why? How can I get it back? Without it I don't know how to get to my FTP.

My Firefox menu button has disappeared. Why? How can I get it back? Without it I don't know how to get to my FTP. I never did anything to make this happen.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).
Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
