I have a WebHelp content directory created using RoboHelp 9. From a web application, I'm trying to display a specific help page using their CSH JavaScript API:
RH_ShowHelp(0, "WebHelp/index.htm>MainWindow", HH_HELP_CONTEXT, <some map id>);
The problem is, the resultant popup always displays the first help topic, regardless of the map id I pass. Does the map file that was created for the RoboHelp project need to be included somewhere in the resultant WebHelp directory? I would think that RoboHelp would handle including whatever it needed in the generated content.
I think what's more likely is that I messed up somewhere in generating the map file/ids. To generate the map ids, I did the following:
Created a new map file
Double clicked it to open the map file window
Selected everything from the right list block (all the topics and help sections)
Clicked 'Auto Generate'
Are there further steps I need to follow before CSH will work?
Perhaps you forgot to include your mapfile in the generated output.
This is done in Web Help, under Content Categories.
Then, you can specify the topic number in the last argument to RH_ShowHelp.
Are you using the published output (not the generated output) in your content directory?
If that doesn't help, you can use simple links like this, which open the specified topic in help in the Help framework:
http://example.com/WebHelp/index.htm#someSubfolderThatIsAChildOfTheRootHelpFolder/theTopicYouWant.htm

I'm using Batch Loader to migrate a large number of files. I'm generating my hda file using a script on the source system. How can I specify the target folder? Everything I've migrated so far has no entry for Folder when I view it's info, and I can't find a way to specify it. Sample of my hda below.
# Batch load data for TEST_FILE_3 as jpg
Action=insert
dDocName=TEST_FILE_3_as_jpg
dDocType=Document
dDocTitle=TEST_FILE_3 as jpg title
dDocAuthor=usr_TEST_FILE_3
dSecurityGroup=Public
primaryFile=TEST_FILE_3.jpg
dInDate=01/29/2018

In Native UI, change User Profile Layout to top menus and do a search. When Item is returned, access its Info. When info is displayed, add: &IsJava=1 to the url and enter.
This shows all metadata field.s Ones you are looking for are one of these: fParentPath, fParentPathLocalized, ownerFilePath, ownerFilePathLocalized
Here are a few steps to assist you:
Place a file in the folder you want your document to end up in.
Find the document info page and append &IsJava to the url. Something like
http://.../cs/idcplg?IdcService=DOC_INFO&dID=110113&IsJava
Examine the output. You will find variables that indicate the path. Their names will differ depending on what components you are using, but a good guess is fParentPath
Copy name and value to your batch loader file

Like this? Suggest me the best suitable platform to compile this.. Its best for me, if a bat file can do the job.. I know bit odd question.. And I should not ask the entire program,rather a section of it..Bt still....... actually I don't know from where to start..
Rather than use a wget which will only retrieve the document, what you want is a way of parsing the results of the web content and writing into an output file.
After searching the web, I could only come across
lynx which
is a text based browser and you can parse the -dump parameter to
output the text into file which you can then write a script to do
the final bit.
Also take a look at this
link
for more info on switches you can use most especially if the desired
text has links in it (-nolist)
elinks which is an advanced text based browser
I'm using PowerBuilder 10.5 and as a newbie I'm a bit stuck and since Google isn't giving me a satisfying answer I'm asking some advice from the Stack Overflow group.
I have a Rich Text Edit field in which the user can write something, insert pictures and so forth. Once finished, he goes to the „Search“ command button and clicking it searches for the batch file that will suit his needs (copy that text into an existing word document, create a new word and place the folder on web, and so fort – there are 6 different batches). The code in the clicked event of „Search“ command button is this:
String ls_s
GetFileOpenName('PB_app', ls_s, ls_s, 'BAT', "Win Batch Files (*.BAT),*.BAT", 'C:\Programs\Test')
And here come my problems: I can't connect my app and the selected batch file. I'd like the path of the selected batch file to be visible in the Single Line Edit filed, but I have no idea how to get there, not to mention I'm point blank at how to connect PB app, batch file, how to even say to the batch file – „That text in rich text edit field is the one you have to work with?“…?
So I need some advice, guidance, perhaps some links or names of any literature that would help me understand how it should be done. I've lost two days and got nowhere, and I just need some piece of advice to get me going…
Your problem is that the original programmer used one variable for two return values. If you declare a new string variable and pass it instead of the first ls_s, you'll see this will return you the path. If you run into trouble, PB has a good help file (and the manuals are also online) which covers GetFileOpenName().
Good luck,

I would like to create a plugin which preprocesses content like markdown before it is passed to marked.
I don't want to create yet another extension to tack on the filename but would rather just search for a pattern in the content and if found do a substitution before marked has a chance to render.
I tried using the render event but my plugin seems to fire after marked even though its name sorts below it. What order do the plugins get used in?
I also tried using a renderBefore event but I can't figure out how to manipulate the content from there.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Adding a plugin.priority will affect the order in which plugins are called with greater priorities being executed first.
The default plugin priority is 500.
I am creating a robo help for my project and want to create a role based robo help i.e some pages will be hidden for some roles. For that I created multiple Table Of Contents. My question is how to call multiple TOC from my Java project depending on the roles.
You can create multiple TOCs in RoboHelp, but you can only output one at a time. In other words, each compiled Help can only contain one TOC. But you can create multiple Helps, each with different TOCs and then you just have to tell your Java code which Help you want to open.
Create one Single Source Layout for each TOC you want to produce.
Specify which TOC you want to use in each Single Source Layout (Single Source Layout >> Content settings).
Generate each Single Source Layout to different folders (Single Source Layout >> General >> Output Location settings).
Tell Java which Help to launch based on your own critera.
