Hide search highlight once in a topic?

Hi all,
RH version: 11.0.0.179
SSL: Multiscreen HTML5 - Desktop screen profile only
IE version: 9
Is there a built-in widget/thing to add a button to a topic to hide the search highlighting? To be clear, I want the search highlight on, but I want users to be able to turn it off once they have found the topic they need. I've done a little searching in the help and online, so I suspect there isn't, but want to make sure.
If there isn't a built-in function, does anyone know if there is a way to add my own button/javascript? I can read other's code and do a little bit of scripting, but only really basic stuff.
Thanks for your help

The widget does the highlighting by reading the url. You will find ?rhsearch=searchstring added to the URL. Once the highlighting is applied, you can remove it with lots of JavaScript. An easier solution may be to create a button to reload the page without the highlight option in the url. A button could do:
document.location = location.protocol + '//' + location.host + location.pathname
Kind regards,
Willam

Error 'this.node.parentNode is null or not an object' with search highlight in certain topics

goto
http://www.afas.nl/profithelp/2_8_2/SE/index.htm
Click 'zoeken' (search)
Be sure that 'Zoekresultaten markeren' (search highlight) is
checked
Type 'activa'
Click the topic 'activa'
An error is displayed in the bottom left corner:
'this.node.parentNode is null or not an object'
If search highlight is not used, the error is not displayed.
Any ideas?

I think I have it, but it's almost unbelieveable.
In the activa topic, the word is highlighted up to a point.
Coming to the next instance of activa, you have this code:
<li class=p-BulletedList>V: vaste activa waarop wordt
afgeschreven (Dit is de standaard waarde) . . . 
Note the superfluous and tags,
especially with the calling for normal font-weight.
Suppose this is a valid string. Because the opening tags are
,
the closing sequence should be
...
I'm not sure exactly why the error does what it does.
Perhaps this is a simple html error that happens to come in
an awkward place, or
Because the browser expects first, it treats
 as text, so the never gets closed, which
confuses the search highlight script.
I've run into something like this before. Repeated
application, changes and deletion of font attributes in
approximately the same place sometimes results in confused tags.
Similarly, when you apply a build tag to styled text, and perhaps
change the font attribute, opening and closing tags get confused.
It may depend on the precise locations where you started and ended
your highlights during editing.
You'd expect this to be a harmless html error, but in this
case, it breaks the highlight code, I believe.
You're in a better position to test this than I am, so I
await your results.

RH9 Search highlighting color won't stick

When you use the Search feature and select "Highlight search results" the default color is gray. The word or phrase you're searching for displays in gray in all the topics in your search results.
From a usability standpoint, gray is a really bad color for highlighting. People are used to yellow, so if they saw that they would know what it means. Other colors would also send the correct message. But I kept getting emails from people asking me what's wrong with the online help because their screen was peppered with gray splotches.
So I went in and changed the highlighting color in the Webhelp > Search > Search Options dialog. All was well, until the next time I compiled the project. The color choice reverted to gray. Apparently you must go in and make your color choice EVERY TIME you update a project. If Adobe had chosen any color but gray as the default, I'd just leave it.
This is a problem because my project consists of one parent and about 20 child projects. I went in and changed the search highlighting color in all 21 projects, only to learn that the ones I'd since updated were displaying their highlights in gray. So users were getting blue highlights in some search results topics, and gray in others. It shouldn't do this.
If there's a fix, please advise.
Thank you!

Hi there
Hopefully Peter won't mind my offering another possible suggestion.
Try creating a new Single Source Layout. Just right-click the Single Source Layouts pod and create a new layout. My thought here is that perhaps the file holding the recipe for that layout may have somehow become a bit corrupt and creating a new SSL recipe may make things finally "stick".
Cheers... Rick

Search Highlight Error

I am using Calvin Ly's method for highighting search using
RoboHelpHTML X5. Everything works well until I get to the topic.
Yes, the search words highlight but Help freezes as I get a
Microsoft Internet Explorer error message. The IE error message is:
Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site
http:/xprodapp1:9999/ptsmrhelp/PTSMR_ICMS.html
Note: PTSMR_ICMS.html is the home page.
Thank You!

1)Thanks for your reply Peter. I answered your questions in
<< parens>> within your answer below.
2)If I cannot resolve the problem, would removing the js file
allow Help to work (I know I won't get the search highlight).
Nothing to do with the script. Open the js file in a text
editor to see what it contains.<<Nothing that I see but I'll
look it over some more in case I missed something>> I've not
seen any problems like this reported regarding the use of this
script. Have you followed the instructions from my
site?<<Yes>
I notice you have an html extension. RH uses htm and I don't
know if Calvin's script will work with html. Try it in a test
project using just htm files. <<It did not seem to make a
difference>>

Search Highlighting & Back Button

I am using Oracle Help for the first time and have some basic questions. We are using the default ICE browser.
1/ Search strings aren't highlighted. Can they be?
2/ The Back button always returns you to the previous page even when you last selected a link that took you elsewhere in the same page. Can the Back buttons return you to the previous position in the same page?

We've got existing enhancement requests logged for both of
your requests (which I agree are very useful). We recently
added the Find dialog to the Help Topic Window so that you
can search within an HTML topic, but search terms are not
automatically highlighted when opening a topic from the
Search tab of the Help Navigator window.
Also, the reason that the back button does not track
same page links, is that the version of the ICE Browser
we are using doesn't notify OHJ when someone clicks a
same page link. Hopefully, when we upgrade to a later
version we can implement this feature.

When I go to google on firefox and search for a topic, I try to open a website and another website (morsearch, clickkick, etc) will open up instead into a new search engine with the same topic . What is this?

I go to google. I type in "plants". A lot of sites will pop up in google. I click on a site (does not matter which usually). The site will then start to switch to a new url from (click kick, morsearch, etc) turning into a new search engine with the same topic and more options. I never get to the page I want unless I type the url directly into the address box. It always comes back with a search engine. So far I have found this only happens while starting in a search engine. When I get into the actual page, everything is fine. I am using McAfee for security and it hasn't caught a virus or anything yet. Help please! Thanks!

Weird characters in search highlight

I tried using Calvin Ly's search highlight technique. It
works fine for a while and then mu users get weird little square
characters displaying in bulleted lists in their browsers. Has
anyone else experienced this problem? Know of a fix? If I do not
use the search highlight (just plain search) I don't have this
problem.
RH HTML X5
Thanks in advance.

As a matter of fact, I ran into this sitation yesterday (a
tiny square box above all list items).
I did the only thing that occurred to me: I deleted six image
map hyperlinks on a workflow graphic, and then re-created them.
All fixed! I have no idea if this'll help you or not.
Good luck,
Leon

How to hide 'Search' button from Search GUIBB?

Hi All,
I know we can configure search GUIBB to hide 'Search' button and 'Clear' button. But I have to dynamically control this property. Is there any solution to implement it?
Thanks,

As always, you are such a reliable source of help! :-)
That robots.txt you mentioned...do what with that? I mean, how does that tell it "dont index the images"? For that matter, there are tons of pages on the server I don't want being indexed yet either because they are half baked for later development.
Thanks!
Create the file, and upload it to the root directory. It's as simple as that. But you'll have to read the details on the google hits to see the exact syntax of the exclusions.
Now - here's why this is happening....
Somewhere, google has found a link to this URL -
http://bluehippotravel.com/photos/destinations/TH/
The bluehippotravel host has NOT disabled directory browsing. When you browse to that URL, instead of getting a FORBIDDEN message like you should, you get a page listing the contents of that directory. Google is indexing that page. Ask your host to turn off directory browsing for that folder.

WebHelp Search Highlighting Revisited (RH7)

I like RH7's built-in search highlighting feature,
particularly after applying Adobe's update to 7.02.001 (see P.
Grainge's item 32 under Using RoboHelp 7, the fix/replacement for
whtopic.js). However, I swear that my current project is behaving
differently from my initial trial using RH7 demo (with the fix,
using IE v6). Perhaps I hadn't noticed it before,
but the entire phrase or sentence or paragraph (this varies)
containing each found and highlighted
word
is displayed bolded!
Was this intended? Has anyone else noticed this? Did I
unknowingly toggle some setting or corrupt a style? It's quite
distracting and my customer doesn't like it. I did verify that the
whtopic.js file in the generated WebHelp files collection does
contain the fix.
I thought it might be related to whether the found word (or
any other in the surrounding original text) was bolded, but this
happens in paragraphs even where I have not used any bolding. I'm
puzzled -- or is this a "feature"?
Thanks as always to this helpful and responsive community!
Steve Peterson

Aha! Persistence pays off. I found and removed "font-weight:
bold;"
and "font-style: normal" from the definition of style "span"
in my master style sheet, leaving "span"'s definition empty. RH7's
Format / Styles editor window now shows "span + " as the definition
of "span" under Character.
The highlighting feature now works as it should, simply
highlighting the found item(s) as formatted. Starting to get the
hang of Styles, I guess...
Cheers!
Steve

Hide 'Search' and 'Project Charter' Tabs

Hello,
   I want to hide 'Search' and 'Project Charter' Tabs, but depending on the project type that is selected.
   I'm able to hide others tabs with BADI DPR_DETAIL_TAB_CONTROL and SPRO>>>basic setting>>>Define initial view for cProjects (like it's said in another thread of this forum)...
   And I can hide these two tabs by unchecking the visible checkbox in the corresponding webdynpro component, but it hides the tab for all the projects...not only one...
   Can anyone help me?
   Regards,
   Juan Carlos

Hello Matthias,
I had seen 'Project Charter' checkbox in SPRO>>CProjects>>Structure>>Define Project Types...but it becomes checked automatically after I uncheck it. I forgot writting it first time, sorry.
About 'Search', I can't find it.
In Activate Function Section i only have the next checkboxs (X-Checked; -Unchecked):
Documents ............. (X)
SAP DMS
Control Plans
Versions
Object Link
Shopping in SRM
xRPM ................... (X)
Project Charter ....... (X)
Thanks for all
Juan Carlos

Search highlights from external highlight server

In Acrobat Reader 9, under Edit > Preferences > Search, the "Enable search highlights from external highlight server" option is by default set to false. For those of us who use third party search engines to search PDF files on the web, this is a disaster. The only way to enable hit highlighting in this situation is to have users change their settings manually, which is a lot to ask of people who are not tech savvy.
Does anyone know of a solution to this problem? Would Adobe change the default settings to true in future versions? Is there some kind of workaround?
Thanks,
Simon

Why did Adobe change the defaut? I am installing dtSearch and it works great in Adobe 8 and below. But Adobe changed version 9 changed and so now the hits do not show and the "Jump to next Hits" and "Jump to previous Hits" does not show on the Adobe toolbar.
My problem is that this makes dtSearch look bad - like their search page is no good.
If I create web pages using dtSearch, the users will not know enough to set the Enable search highlights from external highlight server.
Even if I put a big note on the web page, I know that people will not read it and they will think that the web page is buggy.
I sure wish Adobe would put this back and make Enable search highlights from external highlight server the default.
