We needed to generate a Help set from DITA sources that applied to multiple products. However, serious space constraints prevent us from using standard DITA conditional processing to create multiple, product-specific versions of the Help; there was only room for one copy of the Help. Our solution was to create a single Help set in which select content would be displayed when the Help was opened.
In this webcast, we’ll show you how we used the DITA Open Toolkit to create a Help set with dynamic text display. The webcast introduces some minor DITA Open Toolkit modifications and several client-side JavaScript techniques that you can use to implement dynamic text display in HTML files. Minimal programming skills necessary. Simon Bate, Senior Technical Consultant will show you what to modify and how to do it.
