Search tab looks different on various computers

[avi_aharon1]

Hi all,
I have an RHX5 project that is compiled as WebHelp and run on IE6/Avant/Firefox on several XP machines.
There is a problem with the Search tab:
- It looks fine on some computers.
- It looks corrupted on other computers. The corrupted look displays search results even though no search takes place.
In addition, IE6 issues the following message:
"To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this file from showing active content that could access your computer. Click here for options".
Clicking, and then selecting "Allow Blocked Content" solves this issue.

Is it an IE6 problem for sure?

Thanks,

Avi

Sounds like you are running the webhelp from the local PC rather than a webserver, correct?

[avi_aharon1]

Correct... :-)
Should I compile the project selecting "Run From Web Server"?

Where is that setting?

The point is that the webhelp should be on a webserver. It can then be viewed by various web browsers which will have differences. However, until you view via a browser, you cannot tell what your users will see as local stuff may behave differently, such as the IE issue.

OK, thanks 🙂
