RoboHelp 7 WebHelp Show button not working correct in Firefox

Submitted by Willam van Weelden on

The show navigation pane link in RoboHelp 7 doesn't correctly work on Firefox 3.6.0. This is the link you get in the top of a topic when you directly open a topic instead. Clicking this link shows the skin.

In Firefox, the skin is shown, but with the incorrect topic. If you also have trouble with this bug, you can fix it as follows:

  1. Open whthost.js
  2. Find the function syncInit().
  3. Go to gInSync=false; at the bottom of the function.
  4. Replace the variable with:
if(gbMozilla)
  setTimeout("FF_fix()", 1);
else
  gInSync=false;
  1. Add the function FF_fix() to whthost.js:
function FF_fix()
{
  gInSync=false  
}
  1. Save the changes.
