Question

error when previewing topic

when viewing a topic with glossary links i'm getting the error:

"An error has occured in the script on this page"

Line 115

Char 1

Error Object expected

Code 0

URL path

It asks if I want to continue scripts on the page - it does that for each glossary item on the page.

my other project is working fine. something happened with this one though and I can't figure out what.

does anyone have any ideas?

problem solved.

I compared the 2 projects in sourcesafe and one had the ehlpdhtm.js file and the other did not. I deleted the file from source safe and then reloaded the project getting everything from sourcesafe and now all my glossary links in the pages work without error.

weird but resolved.

sounds like a bad piece of javascript.

the error tells you which line is causing it. if you can find the script and post it someone may be able to help you more. no doubt if you remove the code, it should work fine.

Thanks for the suggestion Nick. I had compared both of my projects (one works and the other doesn't) and the source code looks the same but one project has all of the Glossary links broken.

I also noticed that when getting either project from source control only the broken one asks me to overwrite a writeable version of "eHlpDhtm.js".  The file also shows up in the Baggage Files folder in the broken project but not in the working project.

I forgot to mention before that I am using RoboHelp 8.

Below is the code from the one not working:
