If you create an HTML5 target it will cause Flare 7 to choke on the project.

Re: Can't Build Webhelp in Flare 8
Update:
I tried the HTML5 output an it finished with errors, all related to Mimic movies with long names/paths.
After fixing the errors I can publish the project as HTML5, but regular webhelp still dies in the same place.
Madcap support here I come.

Can't Build Webhelp in Flare 8
One of my projects builds just fine, the other one has suffered multiple failures when trying to build with Flare 8. I was getting a lot of errors based on some linked mimic movies that were outside the project folder. I moved all of these files and fixed their links. This project builds as expected...

Re: 'Loading' image remains displayed after search
I continue to have this problem intermittently and have been unable to find a workaround other than restarting IE. Just thought I'd bring the topic back to life and see if anyone has discovered any other hacks.
Thanks,

Re: 'Loading' image remains displayed after search
I build and publish my WebHelp output multiple times per day and this issue appears and disappears for my users at random. It doesn't even have the same results from one client to the next. I've been trying to gather more data for a bug report, but it is so intermittent I can't nail anything down. T...

Re: Trademark and other symbols display improperly in IE

I also tested this with another project that used the original (malfunctioning) project as a template. This also displays all characters correctly. Any lead on this issue woul...

Re: Force Reload of TOC after publishing new content
For me it forces a reload of the whole frameset. I do remember having problems with browsers that were already running on a cached copy after I added the code. After re-starting the browser it reloads the whole frameset every 5 minutes.

Sorry, I didn't make it clear. That was my first attempt, to do a search and replace from the current character to the quick character I inserted elsewhere in the document.

Trademark and other symbols display improperly in IE

I nailed down one of them (the apostrophe) by doing a global search and replace to eliminate any non-standard characters I may have pasted or imported from Word.
