Borders and Shading with Conditional Build Tags?

Can you apply a conditional build tag to a background image (Shading)?

I have a banner at the top of my page using Borders and Shading, and I would like to exclude it when outputting to Microsoft HTML Help (normal output is FlashHelp).

Appreciate any thoughts.

Hi,

What exactly is your situation? Do you want to hide the banner or do you want to hide the background image (in CSS) of the banner or something different altogether? Also, how did you add the banner to your topic? Do you use master pages or something else?

Greet,

Willam

I have — at the moment — two output types, FlashHelp and MS HTML Help. FlashHelp is the default output.

I have the banner on the master page, set as a Pattern Image in the Borders and Shading, no Repeat and with Scroll checked.

What I want to do is to be able to exclude or hide the banner in the Borders and Shading when outputting in MS HTML Help.

Hi,

Assuming you have RH8 or higher, the easiest way would be to play with the master pages.

1. Create a second master page without the banner.

2. In your HTML Help SSL settings, check Apply to all topics, select Master Pages and select the master page without header.

Your HTML Help will now generate with a different master page and without the header.

Greet,

Willam
