^^&&^^,
Thanks for your suggestion.
You said:
"you can use CSS to pre-pend 'NOTE' (or whatever you want)
before any tag you want.
See:
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/generate.html#before-after-content
section 12.1 for an example of exactly what you want to do."
----------------
I played around with CSS as described in the info from that
link.
I used the advice about the CSS pseudo styles to generate
auto text "Note" and graphic style:
P.note: before { content: "Note: " }
P.note {
border: solid red;
background-image: url(electric.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: left top;
height: 200px;
width: 400px;
}
The text "Note" shows up in Firefox, but not IE 6, and not
the final compiled .chm file.
Internet Explorer just ignores the text.
But both FireFox and IE 6 display the electric caution icon
(electric.png).
Which is the most important thing for me.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, this CSS works for me in standard HTML pages.
But then it's another thing to get the CSS to work in
RoboHelp:
-I opened up fmstyles.css in Dreamweaver, and added the style
definition shown above.
- I did a force update, and the new Style appeared as "note'
in the Available Styles.
- I mapped my FrameMaker electric caution note to the "note".
- I moved a copy of the electric.png graphic into each
project folder Robohelp generates for each FM chapter..
- I did a force update.
Results:
If I look at a discrete .htm file for a topic, the graphic
shows up just fine. Wonderful.
But after the .chm file is compiled, there is no sign of the
graphic.
So close... but no solution.
Back to square one:
Has anyone been able to get a graphic to appear in the final
help file,
that FrameMaker is linking to from the reference page, as
part of the paragraph tag?
(in the Advanced tag, Frame Below Pgf:)
