I got that pasted poorly, here is the exact code I am using. It is within the body tags.

<iframe frameborder="0" src="http://webservices.scriptlogic.com/Product_Help/Related_Article/default.asp?ObjectName=UBMDrivesMappings&Version=9" width="100%" height="300" />

comparing the generated source to a ...

I am attempting to use an iframe to create a list of items on the fly. Someone else maintains this list and I just use the link to display it. However, when using the Iframe code, the style for the topic is altered when the topic is chosen in web help. It looks as if the styles are all stripped from ...

no difference. its like the different page layouts are not even being used.

ok, this does not make any sense.

I created a test toc and target, used my page layout file that contains a title page and normal page layout. The TOC contains what should be a title page (no header and footer).

First test, target was set to PDF, the topic in the TOC was set to use the title page ...

well i just solved the table/image problem.

i removed the "start a new chapter document" from the topic and it now comes out perfectly.

still working on headers and footers coming out properly.

Thats interesting because i am also fighting an issue with an image in a table. I just tested going to pdf directly and the image looks perfect. When going directly to word, the image is displayed huge and pixelated. The original image is only 37x37 pixels and is a bmp. Something interesting to note ...

The title page in the toc properties has the following Printed output settings:

checked, Start a new chapter document
Master Print Page Layout selected, page type: Title, Auto-end on 'left' page: Diabled, Chapter file name: default

Sorry, my goof up. Let me restate that...

>>When i generate the target to word, the only thing i see is a heading and page number in the footer, and only on the title page. <<

I see the body content and header and footer, however the header and footer should not be showing on the title page and ...

I have created a page layout for my project. It contains 2 pages. 1 is a normal page type with a heading in the header and page number in the footer. The other is a title page type with no header or footer.

I have added the page layout to the target for printed documentation, General tab, master ...

Thanks Lisa and Dave. Your replies are helpful and my project is looking pretty good. Probably just a few little things left to clean up.

Now I see why this occurred...I did have a source problem at one point and did use the compiled output to rebuild my source. Guess that was not the best idea but the only way I had to retrieve the source at the time.

Besides the code block that I posted, is there anything else that I should be ...

when selecting project analysis from within my project, i chose to search for broken links.

A list of topics was displayed and said to be missing the madcap.css file. I am not fully sure what this file is, but after a little reading it seems that this file is generated at build time. It is ...

I have created my first page layout. Hate to say it, but I have been uinsg Master Pages all along and am not familiar with Page Layouts. Not sure how I missed this topic. Anyway, I created a page layout and assigned it to my printed project target on the General tab. On the advanced tab, I disabled ...

Yay! That worked. Thank you so much for your help. If i may bother you with one more setting, the hover over. I couldnt find anything similar to what we just set for the text color.

Thanks again.

ok, i got it. opening the source for the frame, I do not see any color #000000 or #FFFFFF which is what i changed it to.

I deleted the output folder and that did not help. when I view the page source I cannot tell too much because the page is made up of frames and I am not sure how to get to the file it is loading in the frame for the search results.

No I did not do that. I am using 6.1 and changed version 6.1. I was just thinking maybe that was a feature that was added to 7. The build error I am getting is something that I have always been getting, just not sure how to fix and maybe it was causing this change not to work.

Thanks! This will work for now since all of our projects use the same skin. Did u by chance look in version 6 or 7? I am using 6 but possibly it was added for 7??


ok, i tried this and it did not seem to work. here is what i changed:

trResult.style.color = CMCFlareStylesheet.LookupValue( "Control ...

I am looking for where I can change the styles for the search results on the search accordian. Currently it is all black text and black lines and I need to change it to white. I cannot find a style for that within the skin styles.

Is this available?

I want to create some javascript code that will read a text file and fill in some information on the bottom of each topic. I know I can add a script to single topics, but where would I put the script if I want to use it in every topic?

I am trying to distribute output in Word format so I can have my coworkers review and make comments to the doc. However, when I give the .doc file and resources subfolders they cannot see the images. I am placing on a network folder and that is where they are opening it from.

Am I including ...

I got it work now. Thanks for your help!

oops, my bad for posting in wrong section. Sorry about that.

Im confused as to what I am supposed to do.

>>You need to make a separate heading style/class for the TOC heading and make sure it has a TOC-depth of 0 so the TOC doesn't pick it up.

My current project has a TOC topic with a toc proxy ...

I do have a toc topic in the TOC, however, I am only generating this source for printed output. It is in Word where I am seeing the TOC listed in the TOC.

Why is my table of contents listed in the TOC.
I must be doing something fundamentally wrong here. Any pointers?

Thanks
Pam
