CSH not working

Post by Sheikah »

Hello,

I have been searching for over two days trying to get context sensitive help to work on my iPhone target of output type: WebHelp Mobile.

What I have done is created an Aliasses file and a Header file in the Advanced folder in my project. Here I have given all the unique ID's and linked them to either HTM pages of bookmarks inside these pages. All the HTM pages are in the same project. In the Target settings I have set the custom Skin, TOC, Stylesheet and picked the Aliasses file in the Advanced tab as Alias file.

Now when I build the target and view it in any browser (tested in Firefox, IE, Safari and iPhone mobile Safari) it gives either an error the page doen not exist (IE) or a white page when I use the following link:
http://www.site.com/blabla/Default.htm[b]?cshid=7[/b]

When I go to the Default.htm that works fine but as soon as I try to access the context sensitive help it goes wrong.

Any help is very much welcome and is highly appreciated

If you're typing that address in the browser's address bar, then I don't think it'll work.

To test the links, create a separate htm page that contains the CSH links; e.g.
<a href="http://www.site.com/blabla/Default.htm?cshid=7">link</a>

The problem is I want to directly go to the links from within an iPhone app. So when I tap on a button in the app it will go to the link with the cshid attached to it. But this does not work, it gives me a white screen in Safari.
