Upgraded data model project to RH 2019, frameless output hangs

I have a data model project that I upgraded from classic version to Robohelp 2019. Each table in the data model is a .htm file. When I generate using Frameless preset, and then view the output, the pages don't load completely and if I click on a link on the page it just hangs.

The pages loaded just fine when generated from the classic version.

Please let me know what kind of info you need to help with this. I am basically looking for a starting point as to where to look for the problem. Many thanks!

    Have you tried simply putting a blank line or two at the end of the topic?

    Ok, I think that solved it. I ended up using a master page with some padding in it, and applied the master page to all 500 of my .htm pages. Now the page looks fine.

    As for the page hanging, I needed to add all of the table pages to the TOC. In the classic version, I didn't have to do these things, but I'm just glad to figure it out.

    Thanks so much for your help!

    Are you saying the tables are within an HTM file or are you saying something else? If the latter, I'm not clear.

    I have tried several times to post a response in the forum but I click Post and nothing happens. Here is the last thing I tried to post:
    There is a separate .htm file for each table in the data model. For example, the account table info is in account.htm.



    My index.htm page has links to each table (.htm file). For example:
    Tables
    1. account


    When generated, the last line of the page is cut off at the bottom. If I click on a table link, it goes to that page, but also cuts off the bottom line and the page hangs (spinning cursor).



    I tried in different browsers but got the same response, so I don't think it is a browser issue.
