Changing the Search Link in WebHelp

Post by RichardTroiano »

Hello,

I was wondering if there is a way to change the href for the Search function (in the nav frame) in Flare? I am working on replacing the MadCap flare search with a 3rd party search tool (dtSearch) and I am attempting to make the WebHelp interface open the dtSearch query window instead of the flare search when selected. For example, I want the Search tab to link to dtSearch_form.html

I am able to edit the built output to make this work, but obviously I dont want to manually edit the output after each build to make it work. All I have to do is edit the Navigation.html file in the Output/Skins folder. What input file controls the Navigation.html output?

FYI the code I replace in Navigation.html is as follows

<iframe name="search" id="search" src="Search.htm" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" title="Search"> </iframe>

here is the edited code

<iframe name="search" id="search" src="../dtSearch_form.html" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" title="Search"> </iframe>

Any ideas?

Thanks

Richard
