Index does not work correctly in Firefox

I use WebHelp in Robohelp and had created my Index with the
index wizard. I recently had complaints about wrong topics opening
when using the index. This does not happen with content. I have not
looked closer at search to see if it is happening here.
When I went back to troubleshoot, I discovered that all the
links were correct. Further investigation showed that the problem
was only happening in Firefox not in IE. The problem also did not
occur all the time. I then realized that it was isolated to topics
within books or secondary level topics. The first time that you
click on a link that is a sublevel in your TOC it would go to the
main topic (book level). The breadcrumb only shows that level. But
the next time you would click on a link it would go one level
further (topic page level). So, if you clicked on the link twice,
the first time it would go to the level above and the second time
it would go to the correct level. (First click breadcrumb AA>BB
and the second click AA>BB>CC. The first click should take it
to the second example, not the first.) This only happens in Firfox.
I am viewing it in Firefox 3.0.1. Is there a work around for this?
I do not know how to correct it. The only solution I have is to
eliminate the index altogether which would not be fun since I also
have a custom created skin that includes the index that would need
to be redesigned.

Welcome to the forum.
When you say delete the index, I think you mean delete the
TOC?
This is a known problem with Firefox. You have books with
links to topics. If you remove those and have the required topic
immediately below the book, the problem will go away.

  • "back" button does not work correctly in Firefox 4. I have downgraded because of this.

    Our intranet has a page (1) from which user generates a list of links to other items (page2). Follow one of these links to page (3). Press "back" - returns to page (1) not page (2). Works ok in Firefox 3.6.17.

  • History does not work correctly in Firefox when setting base tag?

    It looks like there's a bug in history.js that makes Firefox work incorrectly with History when the <base> tag is set in the HTML that runs the Flex object.
    We are not using the Flex-generated HTML, because of the way our application is built and one of the things that is different in the HTML that we run the Flex object in is the presence of the <base> tag.
    The <base> tag is set in our case to http://www.ufxbank.com/fr, and the full URL of the page with Flex is http://www.ufxbank.com/fr/trading.aspx.
    What happens is that the function setDefaultURL in history.js in its "if (browser.firefox || browser.opera)" part makes a call to "window.location.replace" with the value of "#", which in our case replaces the location to "http://www.ufxbank.com/fr/#", which brings a different page in the browser.
    I had to replace the code in history.js to be "var newloc = window.location + "?#" + def;" instead of the original "var newloc = "#" + def;".
    Does anyone has a better solution?
    Is it a bug in the template that should be fixed?

    I have a manual that contains headings and index entries that contain less than and greater than characters, < and >. The Publish to Responsive HTML5 function escapes these correctly in the main body of the text but does not work correctly in either the Contents or the Index of the generated HTML. In the Contents the words are completely missing and in the index entries the '\' characters that are required in the markers remain in the entry but the leading less than symbol and the first character of the word is deleted; hence what should appear as <dataseries> appears as \ataseries\>. I believe this is a FMv12 bug. Has anyone else experienced this? Is the FM team aware and working on a fix. Any suggestions for a workaround?

    The Index issue is more complicated since in order to get the < and > into the index requires the entry itself to be escaped. So, in order to index '<x2settings>' you have to key '\<x2settings\>'. Looking at the generated index entry in the .js file we see '<key name=\"\\2settings\\&gt;\">. This is a bit of a mess and produces an index entry of '\2settings\>'. This ought to be '<key name=\"&amp;lt;x2settings&amp;gt;\" >'. I have tested this fix and it works - but the worst of it is that the first character of the index entry has been stripped out. Consequently I cannot fix this with a few global changes - and I have a lot of index entries of this type. I'm looking forward to a response to this since I cannot publish this document in its current state.  

  • Page does NOT load correctly in FIREFOX

    My HOME page does not RELOAD correctly in FIREFOX when when

    What do I need to TWEAK to make it work OK in FIREFOX?
    Thanks in advance

    Here is the crux of all your problems:
    <!-- Fireworks 4.0 Dreamweaver 4.0 target.
    You built the site in Fireworks, and a very old version at
    that, and then
    imported the site into DW. Graphics apps like Fireworks and
    Photoshop
    produce bloated, convoluted code and fragile structures. If
    you want a
    worthwhile site you will have to start over. Create only your
    graphics in FW
    and build the entire site in DW. Be cautioned though such an
    old version of
    DW won't produce a site consistent with today's standards.
    You really should
    upgrade if you want to deliver value to your client.

  • Focus under Win2k does not work correctly

    Hi,
    we've found out that the focus does not work correctly under Windows 2000 in
    Seamless Mode (App is a Windows Application running on Windows Terminal Server
    2003), the same application has no problems under Windows XP, Apple Macintosh
    and Linux.
    Example: The application has a button which pop's up a small calendar window
    giving that window focus. In Tarantella under Win2k however you just see the
    window popping up shortly and then going in the background. As the window is in
    the background and you can't get the window back and you also cannot work
    further in that application as the rest is inactive.
    Only way is to do a right-click on the application in the taskbar, which brings
    the window in the foreground again. What makes this problem even harder to
    analyze is, that it sometimes even works correctly (around 3 of 10 times).
    We've mostly recognized this with modal windows. The native client does not have
    this problem, however as far as I know it does not support seamless mode.
    2. The second problem we got is, that if you click with the mouse into the
    initializing Window while the application starts up after you have clicked on an
    application Link in SGD (I mean the Pre-Login window of Windows which shortly
    shows up just before the Login Process begins),
    the application is not started seamlessly but is started within that window and
    you have no chance but closing an restarting the application to get it in
    seamless mode. This is seen on all Client Operating Systems by us and not only
    Windows 2000.
    The Client runs:
    Windows 2000 SP4 all updates installed
    Java: 1.5.0-5
    Browser: IE6.0 and Firefox 1.0.7
    Server: Windows 2003 Terminal Server (all updates installed)
    Tarantella: 4.20.909
    I hope that someone has at least a workaround.
    Regards
    Carsten

    I have organized some testcases attached are 3 Test Programs which work
    nice natively but got these problems under Tarantella under every Windows
    Operating System (the error is not Windows 2000 as I previously mentioned but
    also occurs on Windows XP).
    The interesting thing is that the Test Program made with .NET does not show this
    problem.
    Could someone please test these and tell if this error is reproducible on your
    systems as well ?
    Run these Testprograms natively, they show no misbehavior.
    Execute this from a SGD Webtop Session in Seamless Mode, see that
    the Modal window is not modal but shifts into the background on every 2 -3 click.
    Regards
    Carsten

    I checked my PC with Norton 360: full scanning and optimizing registry
    I restarted the PC and than I installed the LR 5.7 again - repair
    Trouble 1:
    Two days ago I could work with my LR 5 and to import pictures from a SD was no problem. Now I can start LR 5 and I can watch/modify pictures, but as soon as I try to import new pictures LR 5 stops and gives the message "your LR 5 64-bit does not work correctly - searching for solution". I have not changed anything in my computer since lasttime LR 5 worked properly, only the registry was optimized by Norton 360.
    Trouble 2:

  • The web site of Adobe does not show correctly in FireFox

    I have a bizarre problem.  The site of Adobe (including where I can download the flash player) does not show correctly in FireFox and I only see it as a text HTML page, but without most images (typically, for instance, I do not see the image "Download now" but see a text line "Dowload now", and so on...
    This seems to specifically affect the Adobe web site as I have no problme for other web sites (so far).
    It is something specific to FireFox as  I do have the problem with Internet Explorer.
    The problem persis even if I restart FireFox without any add-on (safe mode).
    Any suggestion ?

    Does this only happen in Firefox?  What do you see with Internet Explorer or Chrome?  If it is only Firefox, I'd try these steps in this order:
    1. Clear your cookies and cache
    2. Reset your Firefox settings
    3. Make a new profile

  • Satellite M645-S4050: built in camera does not work correctly

    My built in camera does not work correctly.
    It does not have any kind of effect on and it captures pictures and videos as if some kind of thermal camera was on.
    Also some videos I load up on youtube look like this.
    I have been researching for an answer but can't find it, please help me.

    All you can do is to test it with latest webcam driver.
    Remove preinstalled camera software and install latest version offered on Toshiba download page.
    If the same happen again visit nearest Toshiba service and show them how it looks like. Maybe the cam must be exchanged.
    In the past I have used several Toshiba laptops with built in cam but I have never saw something lke this.

  • Remote does not work correctly after update

    Hello,
    the subject explain it already:
    After upgrading to 2.3 the apple remote does not work correctly anymore:
    I need to push the buttons twice, and than atv is only reacting sometimes.
    Any ideas?
    BR
    Frank

    Same problem here. First, I thought it was the Apple remote's battery. I replaced that and the problem persisted. I then used my digital video camera to verify that the remote was actually transmitting infrared, it was. In frustration, I tapped the buttons rapidly while pointing at the Apple TV. The Apple TV responded. The next button press it failed to respond. I tapped rapidly again and it finally responded. After many many rapid presses, while pointing directly at the Apple TV, it finally began responding to all presses. Once I'd regained control (I thought) I unpaired and re-paired the remote. Everything continued to work. At that time I also saw that I could "learn" another remote. So, I set up my Samsung TV remote. Sweet. Until the Apple TV went into screensaver mode again and I had to go through the same rapid button press sequence... with either the Apple remote or my learned Samsung remote. Conclusion, since the Apple TV will become fully responsive after the rapid button press sequence, it is certainly a software related problem.
