RoboHelp HTML 9 - CHM file The Back button works uncorrectly.

Dear all,
I am using RH HTML 9 to generate chm file from my project. The problem is when I click on topic 1, topic 2, topic 3 in turn in the Content pane. After that I click the Back button three times, topic 2 is highlighted on the Content pane, although the content of the topic 1 is displayed on the right pane. I think the topic 1 should be highlighed on the Content pane. Is it a bug of Microsoft HTML Help ?
Please help me understand what Microsoft HTML Help does in generating .chm within RoboHelp 9 ?
Thank you.

Dear RoboColum(n),
The following is the report from my machine. Please help me check it. I really don't have experience in this. Thank you so much.

  • Why doesn't the "back" button work all the time in Safari?

    Why doesn't the "back" button work all the time in Safari?

    thanks for the reply. You prompted me to check and I realised it wasn't installed on my test laptop and opening in Microsoft Reader. I've installed it now and it works.
    My next challenge is to prevent the mailto: command opening Microsoft Mail instead of Outlook, but I guess every user will have a different default.
    Thank you

  • After my update to version 4, the back button now only seems to store the last page I was on rather than the last 10 like it used to before the update. I've scoured the options menu to no avail. How can I get the back button working like it used to?

    The back button used to work many times before it would reach the end of its list of pages I had been to recently and became greyed out, but now it will only work once before this happens. Also, the list of pages that pops up when I right click it now only has two entries no matter how many pages I've visited on that tab, the page I am currently on and the page I most recently left. Previous to the installation of the update to version 4 however, the list that appeared when I right clicked on the back button contained up to 10 items.

    Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most other Add-ons.''
    # You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    # Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • When I open a new tab, then go to a new website, the back button doesn't work.

    For instance, I open craigslist in a new tab, then I click on "sporting goods". I try to click back to go back to the original craigslist page and the back button is not lit up and does not work. However if after I am on the sporting goods page (the second page I've looked at in that tab) I click on a set of golf clubs, the back button works to go to the sporting goods page.
    Please help, I have to use explorer in the mean time :(

    I had this problem, but in addition, the refresh button didn't work on the new tab. If you're running McAfee SiteAdvisor, disable it in the addons menu, allow firefox to restart, and see if that solves the problem. It did for me.
    This problem has been reported on McAfee's forum and they say they're working on a fix.

  • How do I get the back button in Safari to work again?

    The back button stopped working. I can only refresh the page. To go back I need to go up to History, and click back. I loved it when the back button worked. Any suggestions? I have a MACBook and Leopard

    For any of you who have had this problem... here is the real solution. On the upper task bar, Go to VIEW, open up CUSTOMIZE TOOL BAR, find the FORWARD AND BACK ARROWS and DRAG THEM UP TO WHERE THEY BELONG. How did they disappear?..... some accidental combination of keystrokes deleted them, I don't remember what that was. End of story and I am sticking to it

  • Does anybody know how to fix the back buttons?

    The back button in the browser doesn't seem to be working in my JSP page by default. Is there a code(JS or anything) I need to place in the JSP file to make the back button work?

    Hi Onamika,
    The back button in the browser doesn't seem to be working in my JSP page by default !!
    Did u disable the back button using Javascript in any of ur JSP codes in the previous pages ? If u did so, please re-enable it using Javascript again.
    If u mistakenly opened some site that has disabled ur browser's back button, then probably the only way to retrieve it back is to shut down IE, then restart ur system and then re-open that website again....but make sure not 2 go 2 that page that disabled the button.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers !!

  • How to handle The Back button on Module Pool screen

    Hi Gurus,
                  I have created a module pool screen. In that screen I have used some input/output fields(text box) which i have marked mandatory by making the input field as "required" under program tab.
    now when running the screen if no data is entered into these mandatory input field then BACK button does not work. First I have to enter some data into the input filed only then the BACK button works. How should i code so that the back button works even without entering the data into these mandatory fields.

    hi,
    use AT EXIT-COMMAND with the module.
    eg. module user_command at exit command.
    then there will be no problem.

  • PPR and the Back Button

    Hi all,
    I posted recently about a workaround Oracle showed me for helping manage back button problems more efficiently, but now I'm having a separate back button problem.
    Changes that were made to a page via PPR disappear after coming back to the page by clicking the browser back button--for example, if I added a row to an <af:table> using PPR, navigate off the page, and click the back button, the row will disappear again--although it will reappear as soon as any event re-refreshes the table. I've tried turning off browser chaching, and it makes no difference, which makes me suspect this is not a browser caching issue.
    Does anyone know if there's a way to make sure a component is always refreshed when the page is loaded, even if it was loaded via the browser back button?
    Thanks much,
    Avrom

    Hi Frank,
    Great idea, thanks! I haven't tried it out in all my cases, but it looks like it's going to work!
    For the use of others, here's what you do:
    1) Make sure your model layer is capable of supporting the back button here, of course.
    2) Create a method, String refresh(), in a backing bean. This method can be a no-op (just return null) if you don't need to do any work to re-set the page. But if, for example, you calculated values referred to in the page, you should re-calculate them here. If you had code that calculated them when the page was originally loaded (*not* for PPR), you can take that out, because this will always get called on a new load/back button load/reload.
    3) Add a CommandLink like this one to your page (needs to be in a form, but otherwise it doesn't really matter where):
    <af:commandLink id="refresh" partialSubmit="true"
      action="#{yourBean.refresh}"/>4) Add a call to a javascript function like the following in your <afh:body>'s "onload" tag:
    function refreshPage() {
        var refreshComp;
        if (document.getElementById)
            refreshComp = document.getElementById("refresh");
        else if (document.all)
            refreshComp = document.all["refresh"];
        else if (document.layers)
            refreshComp = document.layers["refresh"];
        if (refreshComp) {
          refreshComp.click();
    }(All of that rigmarole is to support different browsers, which have different ways of retrieving a DOM element by its id.)
    5) For each component you need refreshed on a back button, set (or add) "refresh" to its partialTriggers property.
    6) Sit back and watch the Back button work.

  • The back button is disabled even though I clearly visted the link through Google

    When I search for something in Google, and find a particular link interesting, I view it. But when I want to go back to my search list, it seems like the back button is disabled and it won't allow me to go back. This is obviously painful, if I am searching for a variety of things. The back button works perfectly sometimes but others it just doesn't. Can anyone explain this odd behavior?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons (McAfee SiteAdvisor) is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

  • The back button doesn't appear after doing a search.

    When I move away from a search page, the back button doesn't activate, so I can not return to the search page. Once I go to a non-search page, the back button works normally again. It's only when I first start the browser and move away from a search page that I can't go back to the search page without performing a new search. Basically, I can't reach my initial search via the back button or the recent pages button.

    im not sure but maybe this helps. I was opening links with right mouse button at FF3.6 and second option was open in new tab but at FF4 this option at first order. If you use same way as like me. your new tabs are new windows so there is no back option or refresh.

  • There is no longer a "close tab" under the file menu, so how do I go back to a previous page when the back button will not work?

    Often the back button will not work. I can find no "close tab" under the menus, which I think used to be there, and which is used with Internet Explorer to go to the previous page. How can I go back to the previous page with Firefox when the back button will not work?

    No you can't. Apple don't support downgrading of iOS.

  • Browse sequence buttons not appearing in RoboHelp 9 .chm file

    When I first created this project two years ago, I didn't think I'd be using browse sequences. Well, of course, things change, and now I think it would be a good idea.
    I followed the instructions for creating a browse sequence automatically (Tools > Browse Sequence Editor, then Auto-create from TOC). That seemed to work.
    I compile the .chm file. No >> buttons.
    How do I enable them? I looked at the master page layout and didn't see anything there. I looked at the Project Settings (File > Project Settings) and couldn't see anything there.
    I've searched the RH 9 help and can't find any reference. My guess is that they must appear automatically and I must have, in my infinite wisdom (HA!) deleted them two years ago when I thought I didn't need them.
    Suggestions?

    Hi, MM Acton
    Allow me to chime in with my esteemed colleagues. The first issue I see is that you do not have a Window Defined. You need a window in order to select the Browse Sequence Option for the CHM.
    In Project Set Up create a new window, selecting Microsoft HTML Help as the type
    On the Microsoft HTML Help Options Dialog, give the Window a name such as "CHMWindow" (No spaces)
    Be sure to "tick" the Browse Sequence option and click OK
    Double click the Microsoft HTML Help Single Source Layout to bring up the HTML Help Options dialog
    From the Default Window drop down, select the CHMWindow you created
    Save and Generate
    This will show the browse sequence "icon avenue" (the showy icons at the top of the CHM)
    As for the Citrix thing. If the machine hosting the CHM being viewed has the HHActiveX.DLL installed, the CHM should display as advertised. Tell your Admin that Adobe licenses unlimited re-distribution of that DLL.
    You can find documentation on this redistribution license and how to register it in the online help:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/robohelp/robohtml/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d11aff59c2a0-7f49.ht ml
    Here is the path where you will find the DLL itself:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 10\Redist
    BTW, the reason the DLL was created in the first place is that Microsoft never provided a Browse Sequence or a Glossary tab in their "out of the box" offering so RoboHelp conveniently provides this to authors as a "extra".
    Hope this helps

  • The back button doesn't work for some websites after downloading version 4.0

    I recently downloaded firefox version 4.0. Upon downloading it I had a few issues occur with my browser. One issue was that all of my bookmarks that were on my toolbar disappeared. Also, when I visit a website and am browsing through it, if I want to go back to a previous page the back button doesn't work properly. Instead of sending me back to the previous page I was viewing it sends me all the way back to the home page or wherever I started on that website. This problem basically affects all websites that I visit. I would like to uninstall the new version of firefox and just go back to my old one if that's possible? Thanks

    To respond to your comments first of all, the Bookmarks toolbar has been removed in Firefox 4.0
    The back button should work as it normally does, but you can also right click it and select it from the list.
    To revert to a previous version of Firefox, download v3.6.16 from here: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.16]
    Then uninstall Mozilla Firefox 4.0 choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc.
    Finally run the Firefox installation file you downloaded earlier.

  • When I open a second Firefox browser window, the URL address window, instead of showing the URL, says "Go to a Web Site;" also, and more importantly, the "back" button is greyed out. This is a new problem, and the first Firefox window I open works fine.

    After I open the first Firefox browser window, any additional window I open does not open my homepage, but opens a blank page with "New Tab" showing on the tab. An orange "Firefox" tab with a drop down arrow shows at the upper left hand corner of the screen. All of the options (File, Edit, etc.) are greyed out, however they will work if you move your cursor over them.
    The URL address window says "Go to a Web Site". After I've gone to a website, the back button remains greyed out and I am not able to go back to a previous page. My RoboForm and Netcraft toolbars only show up in an abbreviate form. The add-on bar doesn't show up at all.
    Again, this is a recent problem, and only happens after I've opened one browser window (which works fine) and then open additional browser windows (as few as one additional).

    I had this same problem. Seems to be caused by the web developer tool bar FF extension (this started happening after a recent update to that extension). After disabling it, my FF is back to normal :)
