Question

Content categories cause error

I just noticed the other day that using content categories causes an error in the output (see below). I verified this with a new test project with the same result. It is independent of the browser used.

All is fine if I manually open the start page in one of the subfolders in the Webhelp output. E.g., if the category is named "admin" then open the file "Admin.htm" in the subfolder "admin".

It looks like a script error to me, as if a variable was not resolved to set the correct file name for the start file. Any ideas? This in Win7 64bit.

Hi there

Where are you testing this? Are you testing by clicking the "View Result" button after you have generated? Or are you testing by clicking an HTM file that exists on a web server?

Cheers... Rick

Hi Rick, that makes no difference, the error always occures. However I publish the files locally, not onto a server. I remeber though that this worked before, a few months ago.

In your case it is happening with all projects so I agree a reinstall is next. Let us know how it goes.

Just to give some background on the error you're seeing: The text with percentage symbol is placeholder text in the template RH uses to create output. So it seems your generation process got corrupted. (I don't see how this can be project related.)

I agree with Peter that a reinstall may be the only solution.
