Broken Links - Bookmarks

I recently had a lot of broken links in my project - many of which I was able to fix. The broken links I was unable to fix, or remove from the list, are bookmarks in the project (95 of them to be exact.) I test the link, and it is fine - it's not broken. Why is it showing up in the broken link list? If I try to restore the link, I'll get an error stating that the "#" character cannot be used in the path. The "#" character signifies that it's a bookmark, created by RoboHelp, so I don't know why this is happening. Can anyone assist?

Thank you,
Danni

If you are linking from the top of the topic to a bookmark in the same topic, you don't need the filename in the link, but correct form is with quote marks..

If the bookmark is called bookmark, the link would be

< a href="#bookmark" >Go to the bookmark</a>
(spaces inserted only for display here)

The bookmark itself would be

< a name=bookmark></a>

I hope this is relevant to your problem.

No, the links are linked to bookmark links (a TOC is at the top of these pages, and when the appropriate link is clicked, it takes the user to the specified section in the topic.) A new window or pop up doesn't open; the user stays on the same page.

It worked! I'm no longer receiving that dialog box. Any idea about the broken links issue?

Are they popup links? If so, RH erroneously adds them to the Broken Links section (just as it adds topics and images to the Unused Files report if they are not linked with a plain-vanilla A tag).

Good luck,

I also wanted to mention that I recently started recieving the Parameter is Incorrect error message. I have admin rights, so I don't know why I am receiving the message. When I try to open the topic properties, I get the message and can still view the properties, but I cannot delete topics. Would re-installing RoboHelp help? Any other things I can do besides this?
