Alpha Links in Index Tab

Unread post by lisa byrd »

Hi, Folks!

Curious whether anyone has experienced the following. When our client opens the published project, the alpha characters at the top of the Index tab do not jump to the correct section of the keyword index. Our more technical client resource says the following:

"the JavaScript seems to think it is working properly. If you click on the “Z” link, it correctly says there are no topics available. That means it is finding the DOM reference to the correct Index section, but it is simply not completing the action of scrolling the menu."

Unfortunately, the care and feeding of the help file is not this individual's daily responsibility, and he has no time to dig into it. Can you help?

Thanks muchly!

Hi Lisa,

There is now quite a lot of difference between individual WebHelp skins. Which skin are you using and what are the keywords that aren't getting resolved?

Hi, Tim -

The client is using Sky Blue Horizon. The issue is that when they click any letter at the top of the Index tab, they are not redirected to that portion of the Index tab. I.e., if they click P, the tab does not scroll down to the P section of the Index tab (pay, payments, etc.).

Happy to provide any additional information you may need to help. Thanks!

Lisa

Hi Lisa,
The client is using Sky Blue Horizon
That's horizontal, not horizon. It is an obsolete skin from an old version of the Premium Pack. It was originally designed for Help+Manual 5 and won't work properly with HM 7. What version of Help+Manual are you using with it? (You can check this with Help > About)
