Webhelp: expand automatically

[MicTie]

Hi,
when I try to open a link deep inside a currently collapsed section, focus goes to the collapsed section, but does not show the actual link.
Here is a simplified example:

Code: Select all

<topic id="top1">
	<section>                                           (collapsed)
                 .....                                      (a lot of other contents)
		<table id="target1">			
		</table>
	</section>
	<section>                                           (collapsed)
		<table id="target2">
		</table>
	</section>
         .....                                              (a lot of other contents)
	<section>
         .....                                              (a lot of other contents)
	<xref <href id="#TOP1/target1">>
	</section>
</topic>

Is there a way to automatically expand the required section so that the linked target can be seen?
Currently I have to expand the collapsed section first, then find my source deep inside another section, and open it again.

Is there any way to accomplish this?
Thanks!
