Question

Working with ID tags

Hello, everyone!

I have the following situation: suppose i have a custom script which shows or hides some elements on the html page. So to tell the script what chunk of text should be hidden/shown there is a standard way - to use id tag <div id="someIdentifier">SomeText</div>. So when i try to write this text in the true code editor and when i switch to the wYSIWYG editor the quotation marks mysteriously dissapear...

Am i doing something wrong?
(i'm using Robohelp 6)

Thank you in advance for your help!

I have asked Adobe to add a DFAWMC option.

(Don't Fiddle About With My Code) or similar.

Probably not. RH often "helps" by modifying your code. As long as your identifier does not have any spaces, it will probably still work.

There's a topic on my site about non RoboHelp show hide stuff.

Is there a specific reason for not using the supplied dropdowns?

Hello!
Thanks for quick reply!
I see there is no why of preventing robohelp interferance in the source HTML code? I noticed that it adds some not really need style attributes...

Thanks in advance for your replies.
