Hi all,

I have a urgent problem I need to share with you: I have an .html project and, in RoboHelp, I can visualize the Table Of Cotents, how can I generate an Index, which should be the identical to the Table of Contents (TOC) itself?

Feel free to answer both in English or in Italian, that makes really no differences.

Thanks to everybody,

Alessandro

Caio Alessandro but I am afraid my Italian doesn't go much beyond that!

It maybe my lack of understanding of your requirement but why would you want your index to be the same as the TOC?

Hi,

Thanks for the prompt answer, I'll try to explain better: I have index translated in .chm files but when visualizing the site with IIS I can't see the index translated in Italian (I see the translated index on the right of the screen just deactivating ActiveX). The point is that now I'm running RoboHelp 10 and I see the index I translated (using HTML Help workshop to access the content of the index) in Italian... in TOC table!

In a word, all the issues I've listed so far points to the problem I traslated the index of a software webhelp, I see the translated index in .chm files, in the TOC table and in a browser deactivating ActixeX as well, but I'm trying to see my translated index and I'm trying to fix the issue using RoboHelp... but I suppose you've already understood that my IT competence is not better than your Italian!

Thank you very much, once again!

Ale

LOL! I do have a qualification in Italian but that was 35 years ago! I can count to 19 if that helps

Perhaps I should start by saying that a CHM file is designed to be placed on a local drive. You say that you are using IIS which makes me wonder if it being placed on a server or someother network drive. If this is so, do you see the same issue if you move the CHM file to a local drive?

Secondly I'm not sure we both have the same meaning of "Index". I think you are referring to the contents of your TOC. Is that right?

I am also a little puzzled by your mention of "webhelp" in your last paragrapgh. Can you explain what you meant and just confirm that you are delivering a CHM file?
