Question

Location of BSSCDefault.h

I am new to RoboHelp and I am attempting to open a help topic from my web applications.

I am using WebHelp and I am able to open a help topic using a link to the topic but now I am trying to use Map IDs.

I have created the BSSCDefault.h file and copied it to the same folder as the RoboHelp_CSH.js file.

I have set up my javascript to run RH_ShowHelp.

When I trigger my js function, the index.htm is opening.

I am expecting the topic that is mapped to my map ID to open.

Here is some info.

In BSSCDefault.h:

#define Account_List_5_4_12_HT_viewing36

In my javascript function:

RH_ShowHelp(0,"webHelp/index.htm>MainWindow",HH_HELP_CONTEXT,36);

How do I get Map ID 36 to open?

Thanks,

Ray

Hi,

You do not need to place the map file into the directory with the JS file. What you probably have to do is select from which map files you want to include the context sensitivity in your output. You set that in your SSL recepe:

William,

Thanks for the info.  I have seen these sites arleady.  Both provide excellent information but neither of them shows me how to use RH_ShowHelp with the Map Number.

I am able to create the Map File (BSSCDefault.h) but RH_ShowHelp will always open index.htm.

I am unclear about how to "select from which map files..."

Being a visual person, an example would be excellent.
