Question

Can I prevent RoboHelp from adding the highlightSearch() Javascript to my Webhelp output files?

Hello -

I'm using RoboHelp version 8 and creating a WebHelp system. When my application calls help that is generated using RoboHelp 8, I get a IE Script Error message: Error is "Object expected" and the URL points to the appropriate help topic. To prevent seeing the error, I simply remove the highlightSearch() javascript that gets included at the bottom of each .htm topic. However, I have hundreds of topics in my help system, so individually removing the script from each one is not feasible. I've turned our Search functionality in the WebHelp project, but this does not seem to have removed the script.

Does anyone know if there is a project or WebHelp output setting that I need to change to get rid of this javascript???

Thanks!

Create a new topic without any master page and you will see that script does not get inserted by RH. So it would seem that is being inserted in house and something is wrong with the process.
