Show All option for Drop-down Hotspots

[Steve_Cox]

Hoping someone can help me with this problem?

I have got a HTML help page that has multiple drop-down hotspots included within it. Does anyone know a way to include a Show All/Close All option that will expand/close all hotspots on the page with one click?

I have tried for hours to work out whether this can be done within Robohelp - HTML. Has anyone come across this or know of a way around it?

Thanks for that. I've used the one button method and in RoboHTML it works fine and when I look at the htm page again it works. However, as soon as I compile the project I then get an error when I try to use the button in my chm file. When I click on the button I get:
An error has occurred in the script on this page.
Line: 386
Char: 1
Error: Object expected
Code: 0
URL: mk: @MSITStore: C:\Documents%20and%20Settings\scc\Desktop\iwincsec.chm::/New_Features.htm

Any ideas what's going on?

Cheers,
Steve

The usual cause of that is that you didn't include the javascript file in baggage. Check it does appear there. If not reread the instructions as it can be tricky.
