"Locking" chunks of HTML Code

[tom_bradley]

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if there was a way to lock a chunk of HTML code so that when you switch into Design view RoboHelp wont edit it? I ask because I have this code block:

Original Code

But when I switch to design view and back again it messes it up, replaces <'s and >'s with their HTML equivalent

Changed Code

Anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

Cheers

I am seeing one thing via an RSS feed and something else on the forum.

Neither make sense. Can you please take a look at your post and correct it?

I'm sorry I don't understand, what doesn't make sense?

Hi all

Peter, I think Tom is posting code on some odd site and just linking to it as opposed to inserting it into the post.

Tom, aside from just looking a bit odd in HTML view, does it cause things to break?

Cheers... Rick

Hi,

You shouldn't have to use the conditional comments. When a browser cannot load the object, it will execute the code between the object tags. What happens if you remove the conditional comment?

Could you not put the code into a text field from the Insert menu? Does that work?

Sorry about the earlier misunderstanding, failed to spot those were hyperlinks.
