Hyperlink issue in RH9

[zooneyman]

When I create a hyper link in Robohelp 9.0.2.271 containing ".../#..", once saved, Robohelp automatically removes the "/" before the "#" making the URL non-functional.

Example:

A URL entered as:

Becomes as shown below when saved (i.e., the "/" is removed):

I dont know how to force Robohelp to retain the "/", but all my URLs contain this character and all are broken because of this issue.

Please help!

Thanks,

Dave.

Hi Dave.

The "#" character in a URL signifies a bookmark so I suspect that in this case RoboHelp is dropping the slash to make the bookmark syntax correct. Is there any way to drop the "#" character from the URL? Perhaps you could use a URL shortener to avoid its use. Just a thought.

If Colum's suggestion doesn't work, perhaps you might consider using JavaScript to perform a document.write() would?

Just a thought... Rick
