I had an & sign in some file names (like "backup & restore") in Frame. WWP did not like the special characters. I kept getting a fatal error when generating my help file and the javascript would never work. Once those & signs were eliminated from all file names, the help generated fine and no more problems with the Javascript.

Subject: File naming issues
Hi, guys...the powers that be have decided that an application name will
have a plus sign in it. (example: POSADA+)
Does anyone know of any issues, either in helps, web, FM file/books, or
otherwise, where using a + in a file name (example: posada+.exe,
posada+.chm, posada+.html, etc) would be an issue?
