Using RoboHelp 8 style sheet with RoboHelp 9

Howdy. My issue:
I was using RoboHelp 8 at work to craft a web help document out of a Word file. We have a company CSS we apply to web help for look, feel, etc. It worked in RoboHelp 8, but not in 9 despite following the same Word Import procedure. Needed to upgrade to RH9 because RH8 was not recognizing our version of Word to compile and create the web help files.
How can I make my old style sheet work with RH9? Is there some step I'm missing? Help appreciated with 20.1 bazillion thank yous in advance.

Hi there
First we need to know what type of string you are using and obtain an exact measurement.
I'm joking, of course, but the fact here is, we need more information. Things like:
You said "...despite following the same Word Import procedure.". What are the exact steps in said procedure, please?
Note that it's a simple process to ignore any style sheet during the Word import, then later import just the company CSS file and associate it with your topics. All of that can be done in perhaps 30 seconds or so.
Cheers... Rick

  • Using a style sheet with hbj:link

    Hi guys,
    I'm looking for a way to use a style sheet that I've created in my jsp with an hbj:link tag. Here's my style sheet:
    <STYLE type="text/css">
    a.button
    a.button:active, a.button:focus, a.button:hover
    </STYLE>
    Here's my link:
    <hbj:link
         id="<%=linkId%>"
         text="Sign Me Up"
         tooltip="<%=toolTip%>"
         onClick="signupLinkClick"
         linkDesign="REPORTING"
         >
    </hbj:link>
    I've tried wrapping an <a href="#" class="button"> tag around the hbj:link tag, but that didn't work. Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    there is a possibility to change the default style, but is not really clean. The browser when rendering a tag uses the last defined style for this tag. So you can redefine it. I used it in a DynPage, it worked ok.
    First run the iview with standard style (normally). Look into the sourc of the page and find your "Sign Me Up" link. Check the class of the <a> tag. For instance it is a "urLnk".
    Now just modify your style definition:
    <STYLE type="text/css">
    urLnk.button {
    padding: 2px 10px 3px 10px;
    border: 2px outset #cccccc;
    background: #C0C0C0;
    color: #000;
    font-size: 11px;
    text-decoration: none;
    height: 19px;
    vertical-align: bottom;
    urLnk.button:active, a.button:focus, a.button:hover {
    border: 2px inset #c0c0c0;
    vertical-align: middle;
    background: #cccccc;
    color: #000000;
    text-decoration: none;
    </STYLE>
    and so on...
    Hope this helps,

  • Use of Style sheet

    Hello Everybody
    1. Can anyone please let me know what advantage i am going to get by using in OBIP reports and how to use it.
    2. How to use the style sheet in my report.
    3. I tried to access the default style sheet of Oracle available in the tool. But the file having an extension of xssz. Can you please let me know how to open this file.
    Thanks

    Rick, thanks for the tip. I'll check out @import and see how
    that works.
    To give you both a little background, since I often see your
    names on this forum, I'm building a brand new help project for a
    brand new product. I'm trying to make smart, scalable
    infrastructure decisions for the product and help project's future.
    Currently, I'm the only author, but in the future there will
    certainly be others.
    I'm using RoboHelp 7 now, and considering the upgrade to
    RoboHelp 8. I also need to make decisions about source control and
    deployment, but those will be mostly made by our development and IT
    departments. Our product is written in Ruby, which RoboHelp does
    not provide API support for, and our development team would like to
    get away from IIS to serve up the pages of our web portal, which
    RoboHelp Server utilizes. So I'll probably have some more questions
    for you guys in the near future :-D
    Any recommendations about upgrading to RoboHelp 8? Any
    suggestions for providing context sensitive help via Ruby on
    Rails?

    Hi Suraj,
    That option is not available in FTP mode..
    This option is applicable only for the File adapter. If you enter a value in this field when configuring the sender FTP adapter, it will have no effect.
    Yes, you're right !!
    Are you sure that the message is not getting picked in half-way
    Now, at this time, I can't see the XML data in the CC monitoring because the tool shows only the recent polling execute in the last 10 minutes. If the error recurs, I will check the payload of CC.
    How can I solve the problem with reading incomplete file (FTP mode)?
    ...Meanwhile I will try with Full cache refresh.
    Thanks

    Is the error message displayed in Firefox or in IE, or in a customized window that doesn't identify the browser?
    ''If it displays in Firefox:''
    It's possible that the Troubleshooter doesn't work correctly unless IE is your default browser. You could test that possibility by having IE make itself the default and testing the Troubleshooter again.
    ''If it displays in IE or embedded in another Microsoft application:''
    In a web search I found these suggestions:
    (1) Reset your Internet Explorer settings, according to http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie8-windows_7/cannot-view-xml-using-xsl-style-sheet/ccfe80c6-c0db-4594-a7e3-475f9eac0e85

  • RoboHelp AIR Layouts with RoboHelp 7?

    I am currently designing a new online help system using
    RoboHelp 7. As I began to research RoboHelp 7 (I haven't used it
    since X5) I stumbled upon AIR. I really love the layouts and UI
    functionality within AIR. However, I do not need the installer
    packaging features that AIR provides. I only want the layout! Is is
    possible to import a RoboHelp AIR layout into RoboHelp 7 HTML
    (perhaps using a custom Single Source layout??), without having to
    use the packager/install features?

    Welcome to our community, Ayanna
    I'm not sure which of the AIR skins you are enamored with,
    but you should know that there is no way to transfer them to
    RoboHelp 7 as a skin you may use there. They are mutually
    exclusive. For anyone wondering, whatever RoboHelp skin you are
    using is not used in the resulting AIR application either.

  • Issue in using cascading style sheet(CSS) in coldfusion

    I have installed coldfusion in my machine recently. The thing

    of css file. Also it couldn't recognise <img src=""> tag to
    display an image.
    Please help me out to solve this issue.

    CFM files are disinteresting in HTML, CSS classes and links
    and that sort
    of carry-on. It's all just "noise" to CF. So your CFM
    template cannot, in
    and off itself, cause problems with your CSS stuff.
    What you need to do is to look at the generated HTML and see
    what you're
    doing wrong. I imagine you've got the URLs wrong. Bear in
    mind that LINK
    URLs are indeed URLs, and if you're using relative ones, they
    should be
    relative to the URL of the request, and have no bearing on
    the file
    location of the CFM file they are represented in. This is a
    common mistake
    nebies make.

  • Changing colors/style sheets with custom header portlets?

    We would like write a completely custom header portlet (a standard portlet that is designated as a header, notusing the branding server), but I can't seem to find a way to change the style sheets in subportals when I do this.
    Am I missing something? Do you have to use the branding engine to control style sheets in subportals, or is there another way?
    Chris StoffelPortal DeveloperHalliburton KBR

    ------- developersupport wrote on 12/11/03 4:24 PM -------
    The way Branding accomplishes what you're looking for is by setting a portlet setting called &#034;Portal-Style&#034; on the header portlet using the EDK.  This setting can be set either as an Admin level or CommunityPortlet level setting.  When the portal loads a page with a header, it will check to see if the header has this preference set (first on the CommunityPortlet level, if the header is on a community, and then on the Admin level).  If so, the portal will cause everything to use the stylesheet specified in the setting value.
    The setting value is the name of the stylesheet.  For example, if you wished every page displaying the header to be orange, you could set the &#034;Portal-Style&#034; Admin setting on the portlet to a value of &#034;mainstyle17&#034;, the orange-themed stylesheet.
    Perhaps I'm not setting the preference properly. Sniffing the HTTP headers between the gadget and portal servers, I do see:
    [HTTP_CSP_GLOBAL_GADGET_PREF] => Portal-Style=mainstyle17
    (I also tried it with Portal%u002DStyle, but neither works)
    The remote server header portlet doesn't seem to be picking up the fact that there is an admin pref to override the main page's stylesheet. Did I create the portlet wrong, or am I setting the preference incorrectly, or what? Thanks

  • Generate report from database using .xsl style sheet

    I am trying to view test result histories for specific uut serial numbers.
    We are logging all test data to the default access database template that was provided with Teststand.
    Is there a method of generating reports from the database that match the format of those generated at runtime?
    I was surprised to find that the default access database did not contain any gui or pre-made reports matching the xsl style sheets chosen in the report options dialog.
    My database skills are weak, I am able to browse the raw data and I see the relationships between some of the tables, but the prospect of recreating one of the xml report formats in access seems daunting. Am I missing something? what is the best way to print a uut report from test data stored in access?

    Hello msears,
    Thank you for posting on the NI Discussion Forums.  Unfortunately there are no tools available in TestStand for directly converting an Access database to a formatted .xsl report.  It is possible to have a step in a sequence that reads the information from the database, and create the .xsl report as if it had been generated at sequence run-time, by writing those values directly to Locals.ResultList.  Admittedly, this would require some knowledge of Microsoft Access, and the ability to write a program that will extract information from the database, in order to include it as a step in the sequence.
    Is there anything stopping you from creating a formatted .xsl report when the sequence is run (instead of trying to create it from previous data stored in an Access database)?

  • How to use own style sheet

    Hi my friends,
    I created a JSP file that contains a report built using Reports Builder. When I run this page using a browser, my report is displayed correctly, including the style imported from Report Builder. But when I try run this page as a portlet, my report is being displayed, but style sheet is not being displayed. Why this is happening?
    Someone could help me?
    Thanks.

    Hi my friends,
    This page should use style css/wine.css, for example, but it is not doing this when I put it as a portlet. How should to stay my provider.xml file? When I must put the css directory?

  • How to use own style sheet in user interface templates to change buttons, fields look

    I want to use my own style sheet to change the appearance of buttons, form fields etc. while applying my own user interface template. I know I can create an unstructured UI template to change logos, body color etc. but how do I apply css to buttons, fields generated by the portal components form wizard ?
    If this is not possible, how do I create my own form and get the same functionalities of a wizard generated form ?
    Thanks.

    Mrinal,
    I have solved that problem fortunately.
    What I did was to create my own unstructured user interface template. In the unstructured UI template, you can use style.
    for example, in between the <head> tags, write <style> tages and create own classes for buttons, textboxes etc.
    Then write a javascript to assign those classes to the buttons. Call the javascript function on OnLoad event in <BODY> tag.
    That will do the job.
    for example you have a style class called buttonclass for buttons.
    <script langauge=javascript1.1>
    function setstyle(form) {
    for (var i=0; i<form.length; i++) {
    if (form.elements.type == 'button') {
    form.elements[i].className = "buttonclass";
    </script>
    <BODY onLoad = "setstyle(document.forms[0]);">
    hope this helps.
