How To Apply and Save Conditional Tag? html5 output

[tom powell]

I have a project that I'm preparing for html5 output. The content is set up with two conditional tags, and I can see them in the content view. It appears as though when i select one of those conditions and apply it to the text (include/exclude, etc), when I go back into the file or when i publish it, the conditional tag does not apply. It produces the result with everything showing. Is there something else I am missing?
Example:
1- Project has conditional tags for Red content and Blue content.
2 - From content explorer, I check include Red content and Exclude Blue Content.
3 - Save.
4 - Publish html5 output. It includes both Red and Blue content.
5 - Re-open file. It shows both Red and Blue content.

Tom, I'm a little confused about your process. Forgive me if I'm asking really basic questions; I don't mean any insult.

So you've got topics that have both Red and Blue content in them, correct? And you've conditioned that content with the Red and Blue condition tags, right?

You say you've used the Content Explorer to set conditions, but I don't know what you mean by that... Please explain more.

You don't say whether you've set conditions in the HTML5 target itself. Are you telling it to exclude one condition and include the other? If you don't tell the target what you want it to include or exclude, you'll get both Red and Blue in the generated output.

You say that when you "re-open the file" you still see Red and Blue content. Do you mean when you re-open a *source* file in the project or when you open the *generated* version of the file in the output?
