Arrow-keying through the Nav pane?

Is there a way to allow the directional arrow keys to navigate through the books and topics in the nav panel?

Pressing Enter will toggle a book open / closed, but that's all it appears I can do there.

Hi ClubHans

I think you need to use the Tab key to move between pages at the same level.

Cheers... Rick

But the TAB only allows you to go down. What if you shoot by the book you need? There doesn't seem to be a way to tab up. The latest WebHelp I generated has this issue. Our previous help, in Flash, had no problems at all.

So there is *no way* to use the arrows? To me, that's peoples' first thought. Plus, the arrows work fine in FlashHelp. Can you just let me know if "there is NO WAY to use the arrows," because then I'll stop looking for it. Thanks.

Hi Heather

Keep in mind that with FlashHelp, you are interacting with the TOC in a way that is worlds apart from WebHelp. With WebHelp, you are interacting with typical browser components. With FlashHelp, you are actually interacting with a Flash object that is sitting where the TOC pane is.

This is probably why the behavior is different.

Cheers... Rick
