Document index is empty for Web output

Post by stanhaas »

I have a document index which is working for PDF output. It shows an alphabetical list of entries and lists what page it can be found. However, in the Web output it is empty. The Web page exists, but it shows nothing. I was hoping it would have hyperlinks to the pages.

You might need to do this:
Note For online outputs, creating an index is typically done via a skin. By default, the MadCap style that controls index proxies is set to support only print-based outputs. However, you can change this. To do so, open your stylesheet, select the MadCap|indexProxy style, and set the mc-output-support property to all (all-print is the default setting). By doing this, you can use the index proxy method to generate an index in some online outputs as well.
