RE: Popups From Screenshots in Framemaker/WebWorks?
Subject:RE: Popups From Screenshots in Framemaker/WebWorks? From:Paul Hoy <notincalifornia -at- yahoo -dot- ca> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 23 Oct 2001 17:55:46 -0400 (EDT)
Hi David,
Thanks for your suggestion, but I already tried this.
An error message appears when I try to open the popup
from the chm file: "An error has occurred in the
script on this page. `hhctrl' is undefined'" It
appears that WebWorks has not defined the Javascript
value, so the script fails.
The gotolink method does work when you do not use
WebWork's "popup" mapping, but the method simply
behaves like another hyperlink: it opens another page
and it doesn't appear as a popup.
Another interesting thing - when I remove a
cross-reference or gotolink command from the textbox
(placed over a section of the image) and place it in
the regular flow, the popup works fine.
Anyway, thanks again.
