Wrap TOC text in RH8?

Hi guys,

I found an old post from 2006 that talks about some funky workaround to force topic titles to wrap in the TOC in webhelp;

Not being a scripter myself, I was kind of hoping there was an easier way than messing with the js file as described in that post.  Any chance anyone knows a better way?

    Hi,

    I want to give it one last try. Please email me at contact [at] wvanweelden [dot] eu and I can send you a modified file that works in my projects.

    Greet,

    Willam


    I send the modified whthost.js file and that worked. The modified file can now be downloaded on my site via the link in the previous post.

    Greet,

    Hi,

    Not that I can think of. But you can just igonre the discussion and follow the three steps in the last post. For the nobr-tags, just do a find and replace on "<nobr>" and "</nobr>" and replace them with nothing.

    Also note that the whthost.js is overwritten every time you generate your project. You best make a copy of the modified file and paste it in your output.

    Greet,

    That isn't likely to happen if they are unaware of the need. You really should consider submitting a Wish Form to ask about it so it's on their radar. Link to the wish form is in my sig.
