Hello,
I found the following page about highlighting search terms through Adobe’s forum:
http://www.grainge.org/pages/various_rh_projects/highlighting/index.htm
However, I was unable to download the Javascript .zip file from http://www.calvinly.com/weblog/000111.html (the actual link is http://www.calvinly.com/robohelp/highlight_search_X5.zip ). Is there another way to locate this file?
Thank you,
Connie

I didn't reply to your offline email as I was out yesterday evening and cannot reply from that address during the day.
Why not download the demo as that uses the files you need?
Also you might want to let Calvin know the links on his site are broken.

Peter, thanks for your reply!
(Sorry, I didn't mean to be persistent; it just occurred to me that maybe I had the wrong e-mail address, so I re-posted at the forum). I really appreciate everyone's fast and helpful support, especially for a RoboHelp newbie such as myself.
Best regards,
Connie

It wasn't a problem. Just letting you know why there was a delay.

Hello,
I found the following information at
http://www.grainge.org/pages/various_rh_projects/highlighting/index.htm
_____________________________________________________
Reference the Javascript File
The script is referenced by adding the following to in the <head> section of the page.
<script type="text/javascript" src="highlight.js"></script>
You can name the javascript file whatever you want as long as you amend the above accordingly. You will also need to enter path details if the topic is not in the root of the project. Click here if you need help with setting the relative path.
The topic you are reading calls the script by inserting the following immediately before the closing </body> tag.
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
beginSearch ();
//--></script>
_____________________________________________________
This looks like a great feature. Can someone help me to locate a copy of the highlight.js file? (when I tried to download this file from http://www.grainge.org/pages/various_rh_projects/highlighting/index.htm I got a "file not found" message).
Many thanks,
Connie

I don't know why. I just tried it and the link is working fine. Try again.

Hello Peter,
Thank you for your reply.
I can view the main link at http://www.grainge.org/pages/various_rh_projects/highlighting/index.htm which contains the HTML code, but cannot find the javascript file. (highlight.js)
There is a link to a sample file at http://www.calvinly.com/weblog/000111.html, but the file link http://www.calvinly.com/robohelp/highlight_search_X5.zip does not seem to be available.
Is there another way to locate this file?
Thank you!

Yes. Download the sample project and you will find it used there.

Hi,
Sorry if I'm missing something obvious, but I am unable to download the sample project. Both links seem to result in "file not found". Is there another link I can try?

The sample project is on my site.

I am not sure how you accessed the demo without going through that topic but looks like you did.

At first, I couldn't get it to work...but when I copied the "highlight.js" file to both the Source and Compiled folders, it's working great.
Thanks!

Sounds like you didn't add the js file to baggage.
