Toolbar Navigation - Previous/Next button enhanced script

I've found a few topics on how to add the standard skin back/next script to a skin, for that I thank everyone.  I would like to take it to the next level and make it behave even more like browser buttons meaning when a user has never navigated to a 2nd topic the Back button is unavailable (gray), when they have navigated to multiple topics the button is available (blue). Same for the next button.
Standard script:
For back:
javascript:history.go(-1);
For next:
javascript:history.go(1);
Any ideas?
I believe I saw it somewhere before and now I can't find it.

Hi there
When you say: This is being used in a CHM that was converted from a Webhelp in RH10, does that mean you are using the feature in RH10 where you are now able to use the CHM as a wrapper in order to present a single .CHM file that presents a skinned WebHelp?
Or are you instead saying that you are now creating CHM output and used to create WebHelp?
Cheers... Rick

  • Previous/Next Button Tag

    In RoboHelp HTML, is it possible to add something like Main /
    Previous / Next button in header / top of each topic, rather than
    using the Browse Sequence.
    I'm using other HAT previously, but switch to RoboHelp
    recently, would like to get it back. :) Thanks in advance.

    As it happens I am investigating something like this right
    now, having found several problems with the Browse Sequence
    mechanism.
    It isn't too much work if you plan it carefully. Here's how I
    did it.
    I made a couple of small images (actually I grabbed the
    Back/Forward buttons from Explorer) and inserted them into one
    topic, at the end of the Heading 1 which starts each topic. I set
    Image_Properties > Text_Wrapping to "Right" so that they appear
    in the top right-hand corner of each topic. Note that if you do
    this, you must insert the Right arrow first, then a space, then the
    Left arrow (without the space, RoboHelp only allowed one link for
    both images). I then added a screen tip to the image "Next/Previous
    in sequence". Then I added hyperlinks.
    After this I was able to select both images, and use
    Copy/Paste to add them to all topics. When you double-click, you
    get the hyperlink properties dialog, and can correct the links. I
    arranged my screen so that the relevant part of the ToC was open on
    the screen, so I could see where I was in the sequence.
    Of course this is a PITA and error-prone, but testing is
    relatively easy, if you have Auto-synchronize_TOC in Window
    Properties. The buttons are always in the same place, so you can
    just click repeatedly while watching the ToC.
    Success!

  • Navigation Previous / Next

    I have a requirement to put navigational buttons on a course
    - previous and
    next. Almost every page will have these buttons.
    Is there a way to automate the generation of these buttons or
    any best
    practices?
    KC

    Hi there KC
    I am going to assume that every previous and next button will
    perform exactly the same function with exactly the same parameters
    re display time, pause time etc.
    If this is the case, then create the buttons once (e.g. slide
    1).
    Select both buttons (ctrl+click)
    Select your next slide and paste
    Repeat above ad nauseam
    NOTE: If you know exactly which slides you need these on,
    then simply select all those slides in the film strip and paste
    once.
    Sorry mate, but this is the fastest method I know of, there
    is probably some genius out there with a quicker method and if you
    find out, please let me know
    Cheers

  • Navigation Previous, Next not working

    Navigation - Go to Previous Page and Go to Next Page are not working properly. It works only for page 1 and 2.
    Using SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Microsoft Visual Studio version 13.0.8.1216.
    Crystal Reports Activex viewer has been used to display reports.
    Is this issue fixed any other version
    --Jagannath

    After adding to Page_Init() Navigation worked fine, but I don't understand previous versions were working fine in Page_Load(), why not latest version of Crystal Reports not working.
    Thank you for the answer.

  • Playlists and the previous/next buttons

    Once again, Encore proves to be difficult to work with. I have a bunch of m4v and matching ac3 files that I want to put into Encore to create a Blu-ray. However, I cannot place them all in a timeline and be done with it. Because of the null space at the beginning and/or end of the ac3 files, Encore insists on rebuilding them (to stereo instead of 5.1).
    One thing I read as a workaround was to use a playlist. I tried that, and set the end action for each timeline to go to the next timeline. Works swell. However, there is no way to go to a previous timeline since each timeline acts like a seperate item on the disc and not as part of a whole movie. Is there a way around this? Is there a way to get items in a playlist to act like a complete movie instead of individual items?
    I know another option is to just have one long ac3 file for the whole movie (as well as one long m4v video file), but this isn't really convenient. I like that Encore will tell me how much space is left on the disc as I drop items into timelines; creating one long video and audio file will leave me guessing at how long the move can be and will involve trial and error. On top of that, I will have to scrub through the whole timeline and manually add chapter marks (this is how I did it on my first project). It is a pain.
    There has to be a way to use multiple ac3 files in Encore for a movie without them getting transcoded while having all the clips act as one complete movie instead of individual items. At least I hope there is a way...

    Thanks for the replay. I guess what I will do is render all my video clips, drop them in Encore, and stop when I get within a couple of gigs of the disc limit. Then in premiere I will put all the clips together and render out the audio, and then drop the one audio file in Encore.
    I know adding chapter markers in Encore is not hard, but it is tedious when you have one long video file and you have to scrub through the whole thing to add them.
    Is there another program that will let me use multiple ac3 files in a timeline and keep them as 5.1?

  • How can I get next button in preview app

    Hi,
    How can I use next button in preview app. Means in one folder I have 10 photos and I want to open each photo to view in preview app. Or any other options to use the next button , plz help
    Yas

    If you open all 10 at once in Preview, they will open together and there will be a filmstrip along the side for navigation.
    Or, if you select all 10 in the Finder and simply open QuickLook (File/QuickLook or press spacebar shortcut), you will see Previous/Next buttons in the top left corner without having to open any programs.

  • Next button on calendar gives following error..

    Hello,
    I'm getting following error when I press next button on the calendar portlet. The portlet is displayed on the homepage of one of the users.
    Surprising part is - From the Navigator, I can run this successfully from "Run" and "Run As Portlet" options. The previous, Next buttons work fine.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • [ Previous]  [Next ]  and Sort Order

    Is there a way to make HTMLDB generate report and edit form in such way that [< Previous] [Next>] sequence on follows the reports SORT ORDER instead of PK ?
    e.g. a report on EMP and user sort on HIREDATE...
    so when user gets linked to Edit Form page and click Previous/Next buttons - the USER, totally oblivious to PK - from his perspective, he expects to see [< Previous], [Next>] brings up the Previous/Next record PER SORT ORDER

    Robert - I think it's supposed to work the way you
    want it to. Are you using the column sort options on
    the report attributes page?Scott,
    No, it's not doing that...
    Just now generated app on EMP - all default except no aggregations and sum to keep it simple.
    Test#1)
    Click HIREDATE column to sort DESC.
    KING
    MARTIN
    TURNER
    Click MARTIN record to edit. PREV/NEXT follows EMPNO order
    JONES
    MARTIN
    BLAKE
    Test#2) went into "Report Attributes"
    Under "Sort": Uncheck all except HIREDATE and made
    "Sort Sequence" = '1 desc'
    Result is same as Test#1

  • Captivate 8 - Next Button Works Only After Viewing Slide

    How do I make a Continue button work only after the viewer has viewed the entire slide?
    I also want the viewer to be able to skip ahead instantly through slides they have already viewed.
    Thanks.
    - Jason

    Let me show you what I'm trying to create here. Sorry I need specific instructions since I'm a newbie to Captivate and not familiar with conditions and advanced actions. 
    I am currently using normal buttons (not a shape button) to create my PREVIOUS & NEXT buttons. Based on your advice I will switch to shape buttons.
    "It could be done with a conditional advanced/shared action on Enter of each slide. You'll need a user variable per slide, a Boolean, that you change on the first visit from a default value of 0 to 1, after having checked its value."
    What specifically do I select for the "On Enter" of each slide?
    And do I only need to put this condition in the "On Enter" section of each slide? Or do I also need to setup special conditions for the NEXT button?
    Thanks.

  • ITunes Store App: Previous next song not working

    I noticed that the previous and next track buttons are not working after selecting the play button under purchased items in the iTunes Store app and switching to the Music app. (confusing complicated concept if you ask me).
    I can choose another track of a purchased album by selecting it from the list (top right icon) but the previous / next buttons at the bottom bring me back to my music library with a search field.
    THANK you!

  • Forced Navigation - Want the next button to display after user clicks on all buttons.

    Hi. I'm new to using Captivate to make a learning module. I'm stuck on this forced navigation issue. I created 8 click boxes that the users have to click on. I created 9 advanced actions. Each AA for the click boxes hides text boxes that don't pertain to it, shows a text box, plays audio, and assigns a number 1 to a variable I created. There are 8 variables. I then created an conditional AA that displays the next button once all 8 variables have the number 1 assigned to it.
    For some reason, the next button doesn't display even though I'm sure each variable has the number 1 assigned to it. Also, I want the entire audio to play for the click box before the person can click on the next click box. Right now, I can click on a click box and then another click box right afterwards and the audio stops and the next audio starts. Can you all please help?
    I am using Captivate 6.0.0.199.  My computer is running Windows 7.  I want the output to be SWF.  Thank you in advance for your help!

    First of all, install the patch, you are still on the unpatched version that had a lot of bugs. Almost one year ago a fix was released, your version should be 6.0.1.240. Use Help, Updates.
    The difficult part will be the audio, the other part should be very easy, have explained that a lot of times. You could disable all click boxes, but then you need a new event to trigger the 'enable' action. Is it that important? Are those users not wise enough to listen to the audio, or is that audio not interesting enough? Why not instruct them about listening?
    I suppose you use the Play Audio statement, and indeed, when you trigger another audio clip the previous one will be stopping. You could attach the audio to an 'invisible' object, and make that visible which will play the audio. But that will cause another issue if the user clicks too quickly on a second click box: both audio will play at the same time.
