Text wrapping for TOC entries

Community Beginner ,
Jun 04, 2008 Jun 04, 2008
Hi everyone!

I wonder if there's a way (CSS or a special file to edit) to make sure that all books and topics labels in TOC (WebHelp and FlashHelp) will not be truncated because of long labels and Navigation Pane width (220px) ?

Any suggestion ?

Thanks!

Hi Peter!

In his last post (in thread : http://tinyurl.com/6hbdlw), Roger N gives a 3 steps procedure to work arround this issue (see below an extract from Roger's last post) :

=======================================

In whthost.js:

1) edit the function writeBookItems() as described.

2) remove the width property from the TocWriteFixedWidth() function,

3) remove the single <nobr> and </nobr> from the string found in the function WriteAnItem().

To wrap the book titles, you would do the same for the WriteBook() function, and insert the script replacement mentioned above (in the first post) wherever it goes for books (ok, I'm getting lazy again).
=======================================

I followed these 3 steps and here's what I've got :

Nothing significant until step 3 was done (I checked results after each step by reloading index.htm file);
After step 3: Topics titles in TOC were looking fine and were wrapped! YES!
But... TOC synchronization stopped working.

I must also add that I didn't succeed with Books Titles wrapping because I didn't know how to modify properly the WriteBook() function.

Rgds,

Jean Laurier

p.s.: There is no whthost.js file when generating a FlashHelp output! So I'm still searching a solution for that issue!
