Home button in HTML Help Not Working

My Home button in HTML Help Not Working.

Also the Home option from the Options menu does not work. I receive the "This program cannot display the webpage" error.

I have the correct file name (titlepg.htm) in the Advanced Windows Ptoperties "Default" field and the "Home" field. However, I still receive the "This program cannot display the webpage" error.

How can I correct this situation? Thanks, your help is appreciated!

Hi there

What version of RoboHelp are you using please?

Where exactly is the page in your project? Is it at the root level or is it maybe inside a folder?

Cheers... Rick

Thanks so much for responding Rick.

I am using RoboHelp 8.

The page (topic) is at the root level. I also tried it inside a folder with no success. Any further ideas?

Can you post a couple of screen captures please?

One where you show the Project Explorer with the desired topic in view. Another where you show the dialog where you specify the Home page destination.

Another thing you may wish to try is to define a totally new window, assign the values there and ensure you point to the window in the Single Source Layout recipe.

Oh, and one other thing. Are you using RoboHelp HTML or RoboHelp for Word?

Cheers... Rick
