RE: Help? Disappearing Conditional Tag in FrameMaker 9 book & file
IIRC Frame uses the conditions from the first file in the book to create that dialog. Can you import the conditions from your chapter to the first file in the book?

Help: Visited Links Are Multi-Colored
Hello,
I'm using FrameMaker 11 and RoboHelp 10 in Technical Communication Suite 4. My
RoboHelp project is linked to my FrameMaker book.
I'm using a CSS with my RoboHelp project. When users click on hyperlinks in
WebHelp, I want unvisited (unclicked) links to be one color (green) and visited
(clicked) links to be another color (purple). I have the following in my CSS:
a:link {color:#006600;} /* unvisited link */
a:visited {color:#4C00BC;} /* visited link */
Most of the visited links in RoboHelp do turn to purple, but not all. Some
visited links are partially purple (the underline for the link turns to
purple), but the text stays green.
Any ideas why this happens? Or how to fix it? Thanks in advance for any ideas.
Yours,
Keith

Re: Help: Visited Links Are Multi-Colored
Some other CSS setting is higher priority.
Personally I think it's a bad idea to mess with the defaults for link
colors, so I'd fix it by deleting those from the stylesheet.

Take the a:link and a:visited lines out of your CSS. Seems like RoboHelp doesn't support that.

Help? Disappearing Conditional Tag in FrameMaker 9 book & file
All of the files within the book already had the conditions and conditionalized text but most of the files did not recognize the presence of a particular condition I needed to turn on. What I did was import the conditional tag settings from one of the "correctly behaving" files within the book to all the other files in the book, and that seems to have solved that problem! Thanks.
