Import of HTML Help (HHP) in RH10 is without TOC ?

I import/open a HTML Help (HHP) file in RH10.

But the result is without the Table of Content (TOC).

Could anyone tell me how I can solve the problem and get the TOC from the input ?

(The input strucutre can't support a good automatic creation.)

Thanks

Hi. The easiest way is to create a new table of contents inside your project is:

  1. Right click on the Table of Contents folder inside the Project Manager pod.
  2. Select the New Table of Contents menu item.
  3. Give the new Table of Contents a name.
  4. Select the Copy Existing Table of Contents option.
  5. Click on the browse button.
  6. Select the HHC file you want to use.
  7. Click Open
  8. Click OK

You should now have a TOC in your project made up of the HHC file you imported.

Hi,

In you project folder there is a HHC file, that is a TOC. You can import that.

Hi Priyank,

thank you for your answer!

Yes, I have a .HHC file with the TOC.

But I can't find any functionality to import it in RH10.

Could you tell me, please, with which workflow I can import a .HHC file in RH10.

Thank you very much for your efforts!

Hi,

thanks for your answer and the listed workflow!

Yes, I can do this as you described.

But afterwards the tree structure with books and documents is not displayed in the Table of Content pod.

This means when I make a double click on the new TOC in the Project Manager pod and open it, the TOC pod stays empty.

Could I give you the .HHC file in any way to check it ?

Thanks & regards

Before we try that, create a new project and import the TOC into that. Does the same happen? If so, open up the old HHC file in Notepad. Does it have any content in there. You should find there are line like below:

<item name="Book1">

  <item name="Topic1" link="Topic1.htm">

  </item>

  <item name="Topic2" link="Topic2.htm">

  </item>

</item>

Can I also check where your source files are located? Are they on a network drive?
