Sometimes you need to link to an anchor that is inside a dropdown. RoboHelp doesn't open the dropdown, so the link will only open the page. This JavaScript opens dropdowns if you call an anchor that is inside a dropdown.
Note:
- Standard RoboHelp twisties are supported.
- If you want to use Twisties and Show Hide all buttons with this script, you need the Twisties and link to dropdown script.
