Navigation column left blank in Chrome/Firefox

We're in the process of migrating our exisiting help content over to RoboHelp. I've generated WebHelp content using Robohelp 9.0.1.262 and moved it to a server. Unfortunately when I open the content in a web browswer, the left-most navigation panel will not load. I've searched these forums far and wide for an existing topic and didn't find an issue quite like mine. I downloaded and installedAdobe's 'RH9 Issue 954 Fix' with the whutil.js fix to no avail.
When I click on our 'online help' link from our https server which links to RoboHelp's index.htm, the left navaigation column is left completely blank in chrome 21.0.1180.60 and firefox 14.0.1, but populated in IE9.
There seem to be tons of topics about chrome not working with RoboHelp, but none of them mention the same behavior in Firefox or that IE functions correctly. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Screenshots attached below.
Chrome/Firefox screenshot
IE9 screenshot

That's the question I cannot answer. There may be something that needs to be done on the server to make the help work.
Snippet 6 at http://www.grainge.org/pages/snippets/snippets.htm#webhelp gives an example of a server problem related to an http address. There could be some similar setting that only affects https.

Hi KRKabutoZero,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
You may want to look at Knowledge Base Document #58042 on A flashing question mark appears when you start your Mac.
Do you have access to another Mac? You may want to backing up your files via Target Disk Mode (TDM) as well as running some utilities (Knowledge Base Document #58583 on How to use FireWire target disk mode.
You may want to invest in a utility like DiskWarrior from Alsoft. It is great for troubleshooting drive malfunctions.
As said before, you may also want to bring your iBook to your local Apple Store/Reseller.

Add the "advanced search' button the navigation pane (left hand column Adobe Reader XI)

Hi
Is it possible to add the "advanced search' button the navigation pane (left hand column in Adobe Reader XI)? If yes, how is this done?
Regards
Andrew

Thanks for your response.
May you can forward this as to whoever looks after improving the Adobe product. It would be very useful to have it available on the navigation pane. At the moment the 'advanced search' feature opens up outside the PDF and is a pain to use.
Regards
Andrew

Png files referenced in css not displaying in Chrome & Firefox after after PUT

I'm new to dreamweaver but I've got a techy / software background so feel free to speak geek.
I've been tasked to create a simple splash screen for an existing intrenal website for my company.
I've been able to put page together in DW and sucessfully preview in Chrome, Firefox, & IE. After I PUT files on the webserver (under an existing virtual directory in IIS) I'm bumping into a problem where I'm not able to see a the three png files I've got embedded into the .css sytle sheet fro the header, container, and footer sections. Here's a look at the html & css for the page. Any recommendations on how I could code this better or fix the problem? Your help will be very much appreciated.

CSS for images coded on the Web page itself is pathed relative to that Web page. CSS for images used by the external CSS file is pathed relative to the CSS file location.
If this is the link to the css file from the Web page... go to "CognosSplashScreen" subfolder and get the "oneColFixCtrHdr.css"
<link href="/CognosSplashScreen/oneColFixCtrHdr.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
.... and you don't need the leading "/" by the way.
then relative to that css file, which is already in the "CognosSplashScreen" subfolder, the path to the "HeaderBubbles_02.png" is just
background-image: url(HeaderBubbles_02.png);
not:
background-image: url(/CognosSplashScreen/HeaderBubbles_02.png);
and so forth for other image paths.

Flash starts, some browers quit loading. Flash left blank.

The Flash file loads, but the contents of that file aren't loading by some browsers. Primarily seems to be an issue with Safari, Chrome, and FireFox, mostly on macs.
The browser simply stops loading the file after it starts, and it is then left blank.
How can I troubleshoot this, or has anyone experienced the same problem?
Site uses crossdomain rules, but Ive tested both without crossdomain rules and on the same domain. Same Issue.
Help!

Forgot to say this site has been up for the better part of two years with no issues. This Issue only seems to have popped up within the past few weeks.

Why not make the Detail Navigation column in SDN website?

I wonder the SDN Team can make the Detail Navigation column like in the portal, which can be adjusting size and minimize. As I always have to hold my mouse to move the page to the right when reading Weblog and Post Thread.

Hi Kent,
The left hand navigation is now collapsible. See Craig's blog:

Hope you like it, Mark.

Repopulate file image numbers in navigator column

Using LM 5 with external hard drives, last time I opened the LM program I had to select a catalog. After doing so the catalog files show 0 images on the left side of the navigator column even though there are several thousand images in the catalog. Opening a main folder all the sub folders are there and then the digital number shows the number of images in the sub file.
Q How to repopulate the primary files numbers?

Yes the total number is there 23,000 or so.

A pop-up message is frozen on my settings page. I was trying to set up an apple id for iTunes when I got a message "required fields have been left blank. The missing information is highlighted in red." the ok button doesn't work. 1st gen iPad.

A pop-up message is frozen on my settings page. I was trying to set up an apple id for iTunes when I got a message "required fields have been left blank. The missing information is highlighted in red." the ok button doesn't work. The message is now fixed & I cannot get rid of it. Ironically, when I found this forum I was able to set up an apple Id. Please advise how to get rid of the pop-up box. Thanks!

I'm having this same problem as well and cannot advance--very irritating. All of the information is filled out correctly and I've editted my AppleID information online separately as well to get around this issue, but no luck...

After load test is completed, "90% Page Time", "95% Page Time" columns appear blank and "99% Page Time" column is not available.

Hi,
I am using visual studio 2013. After running a load test on my application, I need to view the "90% Page Time", "95% Page Time" and "99% Page Time" percentile data in tabular results view. But since I have started
using visual studio 2013, these columns appear blank after load test execution is completed. Is there a specific configuration change is required to view data from these columns ?
Please refer attached screen shot -
Help much appreciated.
Thanks,
Rahul S.

Hi Rahul S,
To collect the data, in the Load Test Editor, under the Run Settings node, select the run setting node to change. In the
Properties window, for the Timing Details Storage property, select
All Individual Details.

Jack

Address Book Does Not Populate InfoPath People Picker Form Field in Chrome, Firefox, or Safari--only IE

Since applying the December 2014 Cumulative Update for SharePoint Server 2010, the Address Book in all of our InfoPath forms will not populate the People Picker field in Chrome, Firefox, or Safari--it only works in Internet Explorer. People can still use
the address book to search for names, but when they click on a choice, the name doesn't get transferred into the People Picker field. It used to work in all browsers before we did the CU.
The workaround we have been using is to have people type a last name, first name (or username) directly in the People Picker, click the checkbox icon, and then click on the name they typed (now with a red squiggly line under it and a message that no exact
match was found) to select from the list of names in the resulting popup. The workaround is not intuitive, and many users stop when they see the red squiggly line, believing it to be an error. Please help. Thanks!

Hi In, you'll experience various types of issues when not using IE due to lack of support for functionality. The following links seem to be related to your problem and might give you a workaround:

Alert message in javascript if drop down in 1 column is blank and other column is not blank

What I’m trying to do is have a java window alert pop up if the PNR column is blank and the BOM column is not blank on each row. I also put a cold fusion If statement around this javascript that the CN_Entry column in the Items table has to be an “N”. This code all actually works, but it only works on the row with the latest or newest item with an “N” in the CN_Entry column. I would like this to work on every row, so that if someone does this on any row, or multiple rows, this alert box will keep popping up until all the conditions are satisfied. What do I need to change to make this javascript work? Thanks.
<cfif CN_Entry EQ "N">
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

</script>
</cfif>
Andy

The first thing you have to do is to remove the ColdFusion conditional logic. ColdFusion runs on the server. JS runs on the client.
The next thing is to call the function from an event that happens on the web page. form onsubmit seems like a good choice.

Navigation column link on Custom Homepage Report

I have a working navigation column to another report when viewing the report from the shared folder. If I add the report to the homepage as a custom homepage report the navigation link on the column values no longer works.
The value from the homepage report goes to https://secure-ausomxgea.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/ReportIFrameView?SAWDetailViewURL=saw.dll%3fGo
Any thoughts on why it works on the report itself but not when the report is added as a custom homepage report? Any work around or other type of link to try to get to another report?
Thanks

I was able to create an html link on a new column. Now I'm trying to make the text be dynamic.
Is it possible to have an html column with the text for an html link to be based off of a field?

Embedded SWF files auto starting in IE but set to not auto play - Chrome, Firefox, Safari work ok

One of the web masters at my school has embedded several Captivate 5 swf files in a web page. I had re-exported all of them to not auto start after we realized that the originals were set to auto play upon loading (someone else made the orginials...). Caches have been cleared on IE9, but yet, when that page loads, all of the no auto-play swfs start playing. On Chrome, Firefox and Safari, none of them start playing when the page is loaded. Does anyone have a clue why IE9 might be doing this and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Sue

Am I correct in assuming that when your web developer set these SWFs up on the same page that he did not use the default HTM page that Captivate creates? Did he just embed them into the web page using standard Dreamweaver code for SWFs?
Do the same Captivate SWFs start automatically if you upload them to your web server individually with the HTM and JS files that Captivate creates? If not, then your web developer might be better off embedding the content in his web page using individual iframes pointing at the HTM file rather than the method he previously chose.

Does anybody know why type might render strangely when viewing a PDF in Chrome, Firefox and IE?

Does anybody know why type might render strangely when viewing a PDF in Chrome, Firefox and IE?
I have a client who I create a report for every year. This year there seems to be a problem with the PDFs that I have exported when they are viewed in various web browsers. To elaborate, the type is rendering inconsistently – in Chrome the weight of the type is inconsistent (ranging from light to something more heavy) and in IE the type appears more condensed, and the x-height is variable.
To my knowledge Chrome, Firefox and IE are all affected in one way or another. The problem does not occur in Safari.
We always use Helvetica Neue and have never had problems like this before. I am using the same version of Helvetica Neue as I always use, but even when I change the font to Helvetica the problem still persists.
On a deadline so would appreciate some support here. Box of beer to the person who can provide me with a working solution!
Thanks kindly
Simon Winter

Hello Ellis. Thanks for your efforts in helping narrow down this issue, and for offering workarounds for Simon. Here are the steps I sent to Simon, enhanced by the info you provided above:
1. I typed some text in Id CC 2014.0 (Mac OS 10.9.4) using the system font Helvetica Neue Light at 12 pt. All defaults were on, including ligatures.
1.a. I used the text in Simon's example, “An Annual Report marks the end of a year’s work, but it is also an opportunity to reflect on the principles that” and reduced the text frame width so that it wrapped across 4 lines.
1.b. I also tried creating an all-page text frame and filling it with placeholder text (same font, same point size).
2. Export > Interactive PDF (or Static PDF: doesn’t make a difference), using all the default PDF export settings.
3. View resulting PDF in the latest Chrome (36.0.1985.143) on that same Mac, or on Windows, at various zoom levels, on a retina display as well as on a lower-dpi monitor. It looks fine to me: all words and lines have the same even "color" or weight.
In all cases, the fonts embedded in the PDF were listed as:
HelveticaNeue-Light (Embedded Subset)
Type: TrueType
Encoding: Ansi
HelveticaNeue-Light (Embedded Subset)
Type: TrueType (CID)
Encoding: Identity-H
If you follow the above steps, can you repro the problem?
