TOC pane is blank, search doesn't work

I'm using RoboHelp version 9.02.271 (just upgraded from 9.01 since that wasn't working.) After I compile my WebHelp project, the TOC pane appears completely blank and I can't search for any topic. It doesn't work when I use the defaults for compiling and it doesn't work when I use my own TOC, master page, index, and CSS file. Any assistance you can give is appreciated. Thanks, Sally C.

View Source in TOC:

<html><!-- saved from url=(0014)about:internet -->

<head>

<title>Search Frame</TITLE>

<meta name="generator" content="Adobe RoboHelp 9" />

<meta name="description" content="WebHelp 5.50" />

</head>

<script language="javascript" src="whver.js"></script>

<script language="javascript1.2" src="whproxy.js"></script>

<script language="javascript1.2" src="whmsg.js"></script>

<script LANGUAGE="javascript1.2">

<!--

var gbIndexLayerInit = false;

var strWrite="";

if (window.gbWhVer&&window.gbWhProxy&&window.gbWhMsg)

{

  if (gbMac)

  strWrite="<FRAMESET ROWS='85,100%' framespacing=0  frameborder=0>";

  else

  strWrite="<FRAMESET ROWS='115,100%' framespacing=0  frameborder=0>";

  strWrite +="<FRAME SRC='whfform.htm' title='search form frame' name='ftsform' noresize='yes' scrolling='no'>";

  strWrite +="<FRAME SRC='whfbody.htm' title='search result frame' name='ftsbody' scrolling='yes'>";

  strWrite +="</FRAMESET>";

  document.write(strWrite);

}

else

  document.location.reload();

//-->

</script>

</html>

Worked like a charm! Thanks, Rick!

(BTW, you wouldn't happen to have a copy of the whproxy.js file that makes RH9 work with Chrome, would you?)

Do you mean Rh9 output on Chrome when viewed locally? That's a Chrome security setting and you can only fix that by opening Chrome differently. (Or by upgrading to RH10+). See snippet 3 in the Browser section for more info: http://www.grainge.org/pages/snippets/snippets.htm

Kind regards,
