Hi,
I know there's a solution to this somehow via scripting - problem is, I have no clue so far about FM scripting
We're using the standard XML API for our structure and everything works out fine, except one thing that we stumbled over.
When creating a TOC in FM11 based on XML files within a book, we're receiving good results (pages are referenced correctly). As long as it doesn't come down to jump marks.
FM11 doesn't create the correct jump marks for the TOC entries. After an analysis, this is because the unique IDs for the referenced elements are non-existant (they're required and declared as UniqueID in the DTD and EDD, but not set automatically). Therefor FM11 points his jump marks towards the nearest element with an unique ID.
This behavior points me to two questions:
1. can I get FM11 to create unique IDs upon creation of the TOC (same way it creates the IDs when using XRef)? or
2. what can I do to get FM11 to create unique IDs automatically on insertion of an element, that requires an ID?
Cheers Gorly
