WebHelp Search does not find title containing angle brackets

[AJOwens]

I'm using DITA to document some XML. I've noticed that if the title contains angle brackets (As in

Code: Select all

<title>Using the <Line> element</title>

, the title is not included in the Search results. There is some text from the topic, but no title and no link.

Hi,

Any word between angle brackets is handled as an HTML tag (which it shouldn't be, of course!) which in your case (<Line>) is ignored because it does not have HTML meaning. We will fix the problem in the next maintenance build. For fixing the problem yourself please replace the following line:

Code: Select all

  var tempTitle = tempInfo.substring(pos1 + 3, pos2);

with this line:

Code: Select all

  var tempTitle = tempInfo.substring(pos1 + 3, pos2)

        .replace(/</g, "<").replace(/>/g, ">");

in the file:

Code: Select all
