TOC pane is blank, search doesn't work

Report · Jul 03, 2014

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:

<head>

<title>Search Frame</TITLE>

</head>

<!--

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
