Unwanted characters in URL in HTML5 Output

Hi,

 

I am using RH 2019 Classic and we generate responsive help. However, the URL has this "help/#t=The_User_Interface.htm. Is there a way we can remove "#t=" and have the topic name directly like help/The_User_Interface.htm. Any workaround on this like changing some XML file or anything would help.

    This topic has been closed for replies.

    If you are not bothered about it working. 🙂

     

    The frameless outputs in 2019 New UI avoid this problem as each topic has a URL that brings the TOC etc with it.

    Thanks for the reply Peter, but then, can we replace it with user-friendly text? Instead of #t, can we say #topic?

    Without that the help will open with no TOC etc. See RH2019 Calling Context Sensitive Help (grainge.org)
