Expanding Breadcrumb Depth in Webhelp

[manthony]

Is there anyway to expand the depth of the breadcrumbs? We'd like to modify both the depth of the path and the separator used. This image illustrates what we are trying to accomplish:

I've been able to modify the separator by modifying the skins/desktop/ toc_driver.js file at line 205:

/* $('#breadcrumbLinks').find('a').after('<span>&nbsp;/&nbsp;</span>'); Original */
$('#breadcrumbLinks').find('a').after('<span>&nbsp;>&nbsp;</span>'); /* PLATFORA Custom */

Now, all I need is a way to get the full path back to the root map for the book.

Has anybody made this work?

Hello,

IN a future version we will try to allow more than two levels in the breadcrumb, maybe with a new parameter like webhelp.breadcrumb.depth in the Webhelp transformation.

Sorin,

Thank you for that reply. Yes it would be nice to have that in the future. For the present, I am trying to customize this for my company. Any chance you could suggest which files I would need to change? (I'm hampered by the inability to run a debugger over this transformation.)

It appears dita2webhep.xsl is one file but is it the only one?

Thanks,

Mary

If you want to customize this I think you can start from the template with the attribute mode="gen-user-header" in the file [Oxygen-install-dir]\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\plugins\com.oxygenxml.webhelp\xsl\dita\dita2webhelp.xsl.
