I never got a resolution on this question, and it's happening
to me again. While previewing a topic, I clicked a link that was
supposed to run a script, except I hadn't added the script to the
topic yet (my bad, but that's what testing is all about, right?). I
got a JavaScript error (fair enough), but now
all of my topics in the project (preview or not) are
displaying incorrect formatting! For instance, my inline
definitions are typically green, and now they're blue. My expanding
drop-downs are typically black, and now they're blue. It's like the
JavaScript error "broke" my HTML Help window! I've recompiled the
CHM file. I've closed and reopened the project. I've ported the CHM
file to other machines, and there's no problem.
Why would a simple JavaScript error have such an impact on
how the browser renders pages? Is there a utility that I can run to
re-register components or something. What gives?!
