Help topics are not displaying when using Windows 8/IE 10

I have a WebHelp system created in RoboHelp 7. When opening that Help from our application using Windows 8 with Internet Explorer 10 and allowing blocked content, the Help topics do not display in the right pane when clicking a topic from the Contents in the left pane. Below are the steps:
1. Open the Help system from the Help menu within the application.
2. The Allow Blocked Content displays and I allow it.
3. The Help opens and if I click a topic from the TOC in the left pane, the topic doesn't display in the right pane.
A workaround we found was to widen the left pane and the topic then displays. Also, if you don't allow blocked content, this issue doesn't happen. However, I need to allow blocked content in order for PDFs within the Help to open properly and also because the Search doesn't display without allowing blocked content.
We also tested this with a Help system that was created using Robohelp 9 and have the same issue. I'm wondering if RoboHelp 10 would solve this problem.
Does anyone know if IE 10 requires Help systems to be created in RoboHelp 10 to work properly, at least when allowing blocked content?

It seems to be time for the old divide and conquer approach.
Zip up the project so you have a copy that cannot accidentally be opened and worked on. That gives you a copy that you can safely revert to later if needed. Save the zip file somewhere safe.
Then create another copy of the project so that you have two copies that can be worked on.
Open Copy 1 and delete half the topics. Ignore any broken links reported. Generate the help from that copy.
Open Copy 2 and delete the other half of the topics. Generate the help from that copy.
It should be the case that one copy is now OK and one still has the problem.
Trash the good copy and then create a second copy of the copy with the problem.
Repeat the process until you have located whatever is causing the problem.
The process takes less time than you might think.

  • Help topics are not displaying when using Windows 7 / IE 9 / RH10

    We recently upgraded our library from RH8 to RH10.  Also used a trial version of  RH9 in this process. Now when we compile several of the projects have issues where help topics do not display when selected in the TOC or when a link to the topic is clicked within another internal topic. It is in a continous loop in the browser (like it is trying to load).  If you right-click on the topic it displays (we are currently using this as the work-around).  Anyone else having this problem?? I saw something similiar for Windows8/IE10, but the fix does not apply here (http://forums.adobe.com/message/5138909#5138909#5138909).

    Hi,
    I (April) apologize I have been OOO and have not been able to respond to your replies.  
    Let’s start over. 
    We have an issue where help topics do not display when selected in the TOC or when a link to the topic is clicked within another internal topic. It is in a continous loop in the browser (flickering like it is trying to load). If you right-click on the topic it displays (we are currently using this as the work-around).
    We use Windows 7, IE9 and RH10 for all our projects. (Recently upgraded from RH8 to RH10)
    Turns out the problem is not isolated. I have run across it in at least one other project, which leads me to think it also occurs in others.
    "Does this only occur when the help is called from your software? Is it OK if you double click the start page?"
              No. I it ALSO occurs when launched from the start page. 
    Have you tried deleting the CPD file and reopening Rh and the project?
              Yes, without success.
    Are you using any redirects?    
              Per (Adrienne), “I am not using any redirects. I encounter this issue only in IE. If I paste the .htm into a Firefox browser, the help displays as it should.” 
              I will add that the project also displays incorrectly in Google Chrome.
    Thanks  April

  • Enterprise DNS servers are not responding when using Windows NLB with Direct Access 2012

    Hi
    We have installed Direct Access 2012 as one server installation:
    - Two network cards. First one in DMZ and second one in internal network
    - Two consecutive IP addresses configured in DMZ because of Teredo
    - PKI because of Win7 Clients IPSec
    - Our corporate network is native IPv4 so we use DNS64/NAT64 and DA-server is configured as DNS
    - DA-servers are VMWare virtual machines 
    One server installation works fine and now we want to use Windows NLB as load balancing. NLB installation goes fine too,
    but problem is DNS. If we still try to use DA-server as DNS there comes error message below
    None of the enterprise DNS servers 2002:xxxx:xxxx:3333::1 used by DirectAccess clients for name resolution are responding. This might affect DirectAccess client connectivity to corporate resources.
    When trying to configure DNS using Infrastructure access setup, DNS cannot be validated when using DA-servers DIP or cluster VIP. Only domain local DNS looks to be ok but those have no IPv6 addressess. So how DNS should be configured when using multicast
    NLB? 
    Tried to remove name suffix then adding again => Detect DNS server => DA-server IPv6 address found => validate => The specified DNS server is not responding...
    Then tried to ping detected address => General failure
    NLB clusters are configured as multicast and static ARPs are configured too. Both clusters can be connected from those subnets as they should be. 
    Any clues how to fix this?

  • RH 10 - chm opens but topics are not displaying

    Hi,
    I generated a chm file, and save it on our network drive for others to open and review. When they open it, the topics are not displaying. Should it work that way? Should the chm be on my local machine for it to display the topics properly?
    Thanks in advance!

    Are you using Chrome? Try opening it in MSIE and see if it opens properly. From my experience the Chrome bug seems to be fixed – but perhaps not?

  • How can i set songs within a playlist, or an entire playlist, so that they are not included when using the shuffle function on IPOD Classic? Is this possible?

    How can i set songs within a playlist, or an entire playlist, so that they are not included when using the shuffle function on IPOD Classic?
    Is this possible?

    You can set any song to Skip when shuffling.
    In your iTunes Library, highlight the song and right-click/Get Info. On the Options tab is the Skip when shuffling box. Select that and then Sync the iPod with your Library.

  • Module borders not displaying when using Aggregator

    I am using Captivate 4.  I created a TOC for both modules in a project. Then I created an Aggregator to connect them and display both TOCs.
    The issue I am havving is that the individual modules have borders on all 4 sides, yet they do not display when using the aggregator. How do I correct this?
    Thank you.

    Lenny,
    I apologize for not having an answer to your question, but I'm envious that you've successfully configured mod_jk. I've read several different versions of how to configure this, but nothing has worked so far. I wonder if you could either point me to some correct instructions on how to integrate Apache and Tomcat so I might try to duplicate your success.
    Thanks in advance,

  • Oracle Table Values are not displayed when tried to display with Essbase

    Hi,
    I was trying to create a report with Oracle RDB Table and Essbase by following the steps given in "Federating Essbase and Relational Data Sources in Oracle Business Intelligence Suite Enterprise Edition Plus" document at the location http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe_bi/bi_ee_1013/fed_data/fed_data.html.
    I am able to see the members from the Essbase cubes and I can also see the Oracle Table values, if they are displayed individually (i.e. different reports) but when I try to get one report with Essbase values with Oracle table records then Oracle table records are not displayed and when see the query log I don't see the query for Oracle table but I see obviously MDX queries for the essbase.
    Please help.

    Hi,
    Smitha, you can defnetly use dynamic table in interactive form. I had similar problem and I acheived like follwing:Basically you have to bind the table .
    If you want to have fixed number of rows in the interactive form, then in wddoinit method bind the internal table to ur table node. for exmaple: if u want 2 rows in the form loop times . So by default when you open the form you will get two rows for the table.
    **************BIND THE ITAB ****************************
    DO 2 TIMES.
    APPEND LW_LFBK TO LT_LFBK.
    CLEAR LW_LFBK.
    ENDDO.
    CALL METHOD lo_nd_t_lfbk->bind_table
    EXPORTING
    new_items = LT_LFBK.
    If you want to have dynmic table then take a submit button in the form instead of normal button,
    in onaction submit write a loop every time you click that new submit button it should add a new row.
    use above coding in onactionsubmit instead of doinit.
    Thats it.

    Ravi

  • The icons for the Personas Plus and Video Download Helper extensions are not displaying on a fresh install of Firefox 3.6.12

    I had to do a complete uninstall and reinstall of my up-t0-date Firefox due to another problem (it would only open one window), but after reinstalling my extensions, their icons were not displaying.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled again, but the Personas Plus fox will not display in the status bar, and the Video Download Helper icon will not display in the Navigation toolbar, and is not available in the Customize Toolbars menu.

  • SAP Webdispatcher :Images are not displayed after using the URL filtering

    Hello,
    I have installed the SAP webdispatcher 7.3 on Linux redhat 5.4 in front of the Portal 7.3.
    I wanted to restrict the access just for the IRJ prefix so for this i used the parameter wdisp/permission_table = PermFile
    with Permfile as follows:
    #Denial of the useradmin URL from the WebDispatcher
    P /irj*
    P /irj/*
    The filtering is working well except that for IRJ the images are not displayed so i was using so i added the following line to disply the images to the logon page
    icm/HTTP/auth_
    P /logon_ui_resources/*
    P /logon_ui_resources*
    but i still have the same issue for the irj page where no icons are displayed and i can do nothing.
    The same issue also happened when using the icm/HTTP/auth_xx
    Do you have an idea how to deal with this issue?
    Thanks in advance;

  • Internet Explorer 9 not showing as not installed when using Windows Update - Error: Code 9C48 Windows Update encountered an unknown error.

    I built a few new Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1 VMs today and ran into a problem where Windows Update is not detecting the fact that Internet Explorer 9 is already installed. Internet Explorer 9 keeps showing up as an available update when
    using Windows Update. When I try to install it as a test I get the error message: Code 9C48 Windows Update encountered an unknown error.
    My normal build procedures include applying all the patches for the OS prior to any other work on the servers. The way I like to do the patching is to do every update other then IE9 in the begininng and once all the other updates have been
    completed, install IE9 and then patch it if there are updates available. I followed this procedure on every build for the last year and I have not run into any issues until today. The only difference today is the latest patches that were released yesterday
    April 10th, 2012. To test the theory that it may be one of the latest patches, I reinstalled Windows from scratch making sure to format the disks and then I installed IE9 right after the OS install without any other updates. Once the
    server was rebooted, I checked Windows Update and Internet Explorer 9 still showed up as update (Not the Cumulative Update which normally shows up after an IE9 install) and yes, I did make sure to click the 'Check for Updates' link before I looked just
    in case. My next test was to patch a couple of the servers I had built prior to April 10th, 2012. Those servers did not have any issues with the latest updates and they are not experiencing the same behavior as the newly built servers.
    I ended up comparing the IE9 Version on the cleanly install OS (No updates were installed except IE9) and the servers I built last week which were patched. The versions are exactly the same.
    My findings above lead me to believe that there is a problem with the latest IE9 install package (which includes the latest cumulative update) and the Windows Update detection component.
    I guess I am looking for someone to report this up the chain to get this fixed so no one else runs into this problem. I know in some cases we may not be able to see additional IE9 updates until this is resolved.

    I just started having the same problem.
    I was creating a new VM in Vsphere from our 2008 R2 SP1 image and it hasn't been updated and repacked in a while, so i have to install about 60 updates, including IE9.
    I went through my normal setup as i had just created 2 VMs and updated them on Monday with no problem.
    I got the same error code as you. The install looks like it installed IE9, but the update is still showing up as available in Windows Update.
    I deleted the VM, created a new one, chose all updates except IE, then did that and it still shows up again.
    Then i deleted the VM, installed just IE 9 and it still shows up as available on reboot.
    I have a script that i can use to reset/clear WSUS cache on the computer, (Software distribution folder, and the windows update log, and recreates a certificate), so i tried that and then rebooted and it still showed up.
    I then decide ok, maybe the Image got messed up somehow, so i started creating a new 2008 R2 install from scratch last night and chose to update just IE9 as the first install. I did that, rebooted and it didn't show up in Windows Updates, so i though GREAT.
    I proceed to kick off the 100+ downloads needed before i left and left the console up.
    When i got in to work this morning, the updater seemed stuck on 31 of 102 updates, this one in particular: KB288516. I rebooted the computer, because it wouldn't stop and just seemed stuck since last night, which these updates should only have taken about
    an hour to install at most. I log back in and sure enough, it now shows Internet Explorer 9 at the bottom of the update list as being needed for install.
    I believe this is Patch Tuesday week, so maybe they screwed up something with the Windows Update detection engine, because it worked fine on Monday when i had to update IE9 on 2 VMs that i created.

  • Help - Templates are not displaying in English

    For some reason, the templates in Pages (as well as in iWeb) are not displaying in English -- although that's my default language on my MacBook. I would think this is something easy to fix, but I must just be overlooking something. (MS Word displays its templates in English).
    Can someone please help -- it is a bit annoying that the templates are displaying in a different language. Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    iWork uses a "filler" text known as Greeking to let you see how the templates look with text without having text that would distract you from the layout. This is a fairly common question, so DennisG wrote a user tip about it - Placeholder text in a foreign language.

  • Retro entires in HR Forms are not printed when using device type ZHPP3005

    Hi All,
    We are doing a HCM implementation. We are using HP P3005n printer and ZHPP3005 device type to print our HR forms. We are using ZCalibri font.These are smartforms. Everything was printing perfectly.
    Then there were retro calculations made to these forms.Strangely, the forms doesn't display these retro entries in the print preview using ZHPP3005 device type. Only the retro entries throughout the form are not printing. All other entries get printed.
    When we use device type HPLJIIID, we get these retro entries printed in our form however the format of the form gets changed.
    Now, we want to use device type ZHPP3005 and get these retro entries printed. How would we achieve this? Is this a device type issue? Or, anything needs to be done in the smartform? Why is this issue?
    Please help. Quick response will be appreciated. We are nearing our Go Live date and needs this resolved immediately.
    Thanks in Advance.

  • Cursors are not closed when using Ref Cursor Query in a report  ORA-01000

    Dear Experts
    Oracel database 11g,
    developer suite 10.1.2.0.2,
    application server 10.1.2.0.2,
    Windows xp platform
    For a long time, I'm hitting ORA-01000
    I have a 2 group report (master and detail) using Ref Cusor query, when this report is run, I found that it opens several cursors (should be only one cursor) for the detail query although it should not, I found that the number of these cursors is equal to the number of master records.
    Moreover, after the report is finished, these cursors are not closed, and they are increasing cumulatively each time I run the report, and finally the maximum number of open cursors is exceeded, and thus I get ORA-01000.
    I increased the open cursors parameter for the database to an unbeleivable value 30000, but of course it will be exceeded during the session because the cursors are increasing cumulatively.
    I Found that this problem is solved when using only one master Ref Cursor Query and create a breake group, the problem is solved also if we use SQL Query instead of Ref Query for the master and detail queries, but for some considerations, I should not use neither breake group nor SQL Query, I have to use REF Cursor queries.
    Is this an oracle bug , and how can I overcome ?
    Thanks
