Master page formatting issues in an MS HTML Target

Post by BaritoneJP »

Does anyone know how to correct the following?

I have a strange issue where a link from the TOC displays the master page formatting correctly (see below):

When a page is displayed that did not link from the TOC, the master page formatting is different. (see below):

Jamey, where are you applying the master page, at the target level or at the topic level?

To my understanding, at the Target level; at least that is the only location I reference a master page.

Check whether there is something different in the way these pages are being loaded, such as a link to a bookmark vs. a link to the page itself.

Check whether there is anything different in the HTML formatting of the page, a different style or a div or other element which could be affecting the formatting.

After checking, links are loaded to the page itself; not using bookmarks.

I did not check the whole project, however I did from a few of the pages displaying this issue - I do not see any different formatting. (To clarify, compared a page that was displaying correctly vs. incorrectly.)


One thing that I did notice, I have pages that are not part of the TOC. They are reference pages that are either crossed referenced (xref) from a page that is on the TOC - OR - are called (as a reference for the user) from the application via context sensitive help (alias mapping).
