RH10 WebHelp includes special characters in 508 compliant search

I am converting a RoboHelp 5 WebHelp project to RoboHelp 10 WebHelp and the project uses 508 compliant output.  When I click on the search tab I see special characters like $, %, !, #, etc. showing up as search words.  I have tried adding the characters to the Stop Words list and generating the output again but the special characters still show up.  Is there a way to suppress these characters from showing up in search?  The characters do not show up in the RoboHelp 5 508 output.  I am using IE8.

Hi there
Section 508 deals with accessibility. This means screen readers for blind or visually impaired individuals. They mouse over areas and the screen reader reads back to them what the mouse is hovering. So instead of a field where you type, they navigate search in a different manner. By clicking links that eventually lead to the term.
Cheers... Rick

  • Reading Text longer than 132 Characters including Special characters

    Hello Seniors,
    Could you please give me some information about the following Function Modules also?
    'SOTR_STRING_CREATE_CONCEPT'
    'LXE_OBJ_TEXT_PAIR_READ_SOTR'
    'SOTR_STRING_READ_TEXT_WITH_KEY'
    I was able to create a concept by using the Function module 'SOTR_STRING_CREATE_CONCEPT'. Now, I need to create a text and then read the text where ever I want (the text can be longer than 132 characters and also may contain special characters) from abap functions as per my requirement.
    my requirement is not based only on SAP Scripts.

  • Problems with using special characters in Interactive Report Search

    Hi!
    I am currently developing an Application on Application Express 3.1.2.00.02 including a page with an Interactive Report, facing the problem that I cannot use special german characters in the Searchbar.
    So if i try to find a name like 'Schröder' the created Filter looks like this 'Schröder' and i won't get any valid search results. By the way the rest of the application supports these special characters like using them in Buttons or any other Page elements.
    Does anyone have a clue how to fix this problem, because it's driving me nuts ;)
    Thanks in advance

  • Passing text including special characters to Javascript functions

    I need to call a Javascript function with some text retrieved from the database, which may include carriage returns, line feeds etc. I need to change these to the Javascript escape characters "\r", "\n" etc. I can easily write my own function to do this, but suspect there may be a built-in one somewhere I could be using - but can't find one. Is there one?

    Tony,
    I tried using XMLDB_GEN.CONVERT and it worked for me:
    DECLARE
       v_value_to_save   VARCHAR2 (30);
    BEGIN
       v_value_to_save := DBMS_XMLGEN.CONVERT (:t_sql, 1);
       UPDATE my_table
          SET my_column = v_value_to_save
        WHERE my_key = :my_key_value;
    END;
    DECLARE
       v_value_to_select   VARCHAR2 (30);
    BEGIN
       OWA_UTIL.mime_header ('text/xml', FALSE);
       HTP.p ('Cache-Control: no-cache');
       HTP.p ('Pragma: no-cache');
       OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;

  • How to search special characters in a string

    Hi all,
    I want to search special characters in all string columns and all rows in the table.
    The table has about 5 string columns and about 5.000.000 rows. For each row and column, I have to search entries, which included special characters like ", !, ? or something else (f.ex. "Mama?Mia" or "!!!Hotel out of order!!!"). The problem, the character could stand at each position in the string.
    What's the best and most performance possibility to search such entries?? Is it possibility only by SQL; is there a special function for this?? Or must I use PL/SQL.
    Thanks for helping

  • Create / Alter user doesn't allow special characters in password

    When i try to change the password from say : vos1s05 to : vos1s05! i get the error message (missing or invalid option), i have used several special characters and all give the same error, is there a way to circumvent this, or will this be enabled in a new release ??

    A password is classified as an oracle identifier and must conform to the rules for indentifiers. To include special characters you need to enclose it in double quotes e.g. "vos1s05!"

  • Dynamic text, system fonts, and special characters...

    This one is boggling my mind so if someone can help, please
    do
    I've got a dynamic text area pulling text from a MySQL
    database via AMFPHP. The text includes special characters such as
    accents, umlauts, etc (multi-language site platform). Most of them
    work fine, and ALL of them work fine when I'm on a Mac client.
    However, if I use a Windows client machine in either Firefox or
    IE6, there are a couple characters that for whatever reason just
    don't seem to show up -- instead I get the [] box character.
    The only characters I've found that seem to be affected like
    this are European quote characters like ’ “ and
    ” (hex characters 146, 147, 148). I'm using the familiar
    ampersand-pound-number-semicolon escape sequence for them. And like
    I said, they all display fine on Mac/Firefox and Mac/Safari. Why
    are all my other special characters (umlauts, accents, etc) working
    fine and just these things failing? It's also worth noting that
    they look fine if I dump them out to a PHP file and pull it up in a
    browser...
    Please, if anyone can help... I've been bashing my head
    against this for the better part of the day!!

    Hi,
    did you take a look at the "gateway.php' ? There you can
    define charsets. Maybe a western europe charset will
    help you out. Since french language is using a lot more
    accents and so.
    This is what you can find in the gateway.php of amfphp. Just
    have to set the right one ;)

  • Query with special characters

    I am having a problem returning results that include special characters. I have a list of individuals and want to allow an alpha select to display, for example, only the individuals who's last name starts with C.
    I have an individual in this list who's last name is Čapek
    When I do a mySQL query in mySQL Query Browser as follows, this individual is returned in results.
    SELECT distinct
           last_name
    FROM
           individuals
    WHERE
           last_name like 'C%'
    HOWEVER, when I use the same query in a cfquery, this individual's record is not returned.
    I am using mySQL 5 with ColdFusion 9 and have the mySQL connection string settings: useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8
    Any assistance would be appreciated - I've not found anything useful in my Google searches.
    Many Thanks!

    I've not personally come across this issue before, but googling for "mysql where diacritic" (and various permutations thereof) came up with this doc, which seems to discuss your issue: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=37413
    So it could be that the JDBC driver is using a different collation than your other MySQL client (wild guess)?
    Try messing around with the collation being used, and see if that helps at all?  The JDBC param to set seems to to connectionCollation be (from http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/connector-j-reference-configuration-properties.html ).
    Sorry if this sounds vague or is completely wrong - it's a bit of a guess - but it does sound reasonably likely to be something to do with your issue, given your description.

  • Yosemite doesn't recognize special characters in password when logging in

    Hi everyone,
    I installed Yosemite yesterday on my mid-2011 MBA and discovered that after restarting it, I was unable to log into it. First, I'd like to precise that I'm using a French keyboard, it could have an importance afterwards.
    The password I use for my account is quite complex and uses a special character. Until now, it worked perfectly, but I discovered that, on Yosemite, I have to type twice the special character and the one after, in order to get it worked. Otherwise, it acts like if I haven't typed these two.
    Also, this behavior is kind of weird because if I log out, I don't have the issue: it works perfectly. So the issue is just after a shut down/restart.
    The only way I could restart the first time was by using the tool made from Apple when you loose your password (pressing the power button until it shuts down). Once my laptop entered that mode, I could just type my current password and choose a new one. But still, I don't get why it works on every screen, except the one after a shut down/restart.
    I hope Apple could bring a quick fix for that because it's really annoying. Also, if someone gets the same issue, try to type twice the special character(s) and maybe the one(s) that is/are just after.
    Bye.

  • Embedded font has extra space after special characters

    I've built a web-based Flash movie for a major client. The SWF uses an embedded font and loads text from an XML document. The client is localizing it for several languages, which of course include special characters. In this case, the å character is giving us problems -- it always renders with an extra space after it. For example, the Danish word spørgsmål is rendered as spørgsmå l.
    I might be inclined to think something's wrong with the font, because it doesn't happen with other fonts. However, some Googling turned up several other cases of people with similar problems using different fonts.
    When I remove the font embedding, the problem disappears. I can watch it do this right in the IDE. As soon as I embed characters again, the phantom space returns. And it doesn't happen in any other applications.
    I've spent many hours trying all kinds workarounds, but I've come up with nothing so far. As I said, I've found several other mentions of this problem but the only solution I've seen is "use a different font." In this case I can't -- it's a corporate identity font that's required for this project!
    If it makes any difference, I'm linking the font in the library, then specifying the embedded characters for the text fields. I also have text fields created entirely in Actionscript (AS3) that behave exactly the same way.
    Please tell me there's a solution to this! I'm pretty positive this is a Flash bug at this point, though I'd be happy if someone proved me wrong.

    Hi,
    I read the following on another discussion in this forum:
    it appears that with the shortkey ctrl+shift+Y you can force the pc to work around the system fonts
    Maybe that helps.

  • Special Characters in include file

    When I use special characters �� �� in jsp it works fine.
    However, when I've these characters in a different file an d use include directive to include that file it doesn't show up(shows garbage). Any idea ?
    Case 1:
    jsp1:
    contains �� ��
    works fine
    Case 2:
    jsp1:contains
    <%@ include file="textfile.txt" %>
    textfile.txt contains: �� ��
    Not working
    Any idea ?

    Sounds odd,
    Please provide more information. But before you do try the following:
    <jsp:include page="blah"/>
    This works differently vis <%@ include ...%>
    I hope this helps

  • Special Characters in Links

    Hello,
    I work for a software company which offers a web application - an e-mail subscription management service. Our application sends e-mails out to subscribers which include links back to the websites of our clients. The problem we have encountered with some frequency is that some versions of Safari do not seem to like encoding of special characters in URLS. All of the links we send have encoded special characters in them. For example:
    http://service.govdelivery.com/service/edition.html?emailtype=subscription&format=HTML&code=MNMMCD5&date=2006-06-21 00:00:00.0
    We encode each "&" as a character entity in the URL. When encoded this way, the links do not work for many Safari users. If we remove the encoding (character entity) and simply insert an "&", the links will work for them.
    The problem is that the encoded version is the WC3 compliant one. It is not recommended to use special characters in URLs, such as < or &. Is anyone familiar with this issue? Is this true across all versions of Safari?
    Thank you for your help.
    Gabriel Zeck
    GovDelivery, Inc.

    We encode each "&" as a character entity in the URL.

    I'm not sure if it is the Mail app or Safari which does this. Whichever, it is too clever by half. If it comes across a &, it changes it to %26, which is fine. But if it comes across a %26 it will re-encode the % and produce %2526, which of course is not.

  • FindNode returning Null And XML Not Accepting Special Characters

    First of all you have to supply a value you want to search for and this has to be the complete path to the value. You're saying you already tried that, but can you paste the code which you used for that? I don't see the path mentioned in the code you posted.
    *FindNode*
    Syntax
    FindNode(Path)
    Description
    Use the FindNode method to return a reference to an XmlNode.
    The path is specified as the list of tag names, to the node that you want to find, each separated by a slash (/).
    Parameters
    Path
    Specify the tag names up to and including the name of the node that you want returned, starting with a slash and each separated by a slash (/). This is known as the XPath query language.>
    Another option would be this snippet of code:
    &InfoCFDiArray = GetElementsByTagName("ns4:InfoCFDi");
    &InfoCFDiNode = &InfoCFDiArray [1];
    &attValue = &InfoCFDiNode.GetAttributeValue("noCertificadoSAT")
    Warning(&attValue);
    It creates an array of XML Nodes which match the name "ns4:InfoCFDi". Since there's only one in the XML it's safe to assume it will be the one and only node in the array. I've assigned that node to the variable &InfoCFDiNode and use that to retrieve the attribute "noCertificadoSAT" value. The warning message should display the value supplied there.
    Concering the special characters; you will have to change the encoding of the XML. Peoplecode sets this to UTF-8 by default, but doesn't include this in the header. There's a little hack for that somewhere on the web, I'll see if I can find it.

Maybe you are looking for
