Question

TOC generated from Robohelp 6 cannot be viewed in Internet Explorer 11

Hi,

I have created Table of Contents in RH 6 and generated the WebHelp. But when I open the help files via an application's help button in IE11, somehow the TOC is not displayed on the left pane. However, when I use Mozilla FF 32.0.3, the TOC is displayed without any problem. Can you advise how can I solve the issue in IE11?

Thanks.

WF

It’s a long-shot but won’t hurt to try it – see if you can add the location of your help to IE’s list of Trusted Sites (Tools > Internet Options > Security tab > Trusted sites > Sites button)

Jeff,

I managed to solve the issue. It is a setting issue in IE. In IE, go to  Tools > Compatibility View Settings > select the Display intranet sites in Compatibility View. By enabling the option, I can now see the table of contents in the left pane of the online help file.

But this is only a solution for a single browser installation. All other readers will have the same issue. If you want to support IE11, the only real fix is to upgrade RH.

Kind regards,

Even Rh9, 10 and 11 have had to be patched because of IE issues. Probably Rh11 is your only answer if IE support is a must.
