I am attempting to display a field-level help window that also
displays the TOC. Right now, the user can click field level help, view
the popup help in a window, and then click "Show" to view the TOC.
However, the user cannot click Back.

The Business users have requested that the field-level help (which
displays through javascript and a MAP ID) display the topic in the
rightnav and the TOC in the leftnav.


You haven't mentioned which HAT, so I'm assuming RH X5.

Per http://www.adobe.com/devnet/robohelp/articles/context_help.html,
the "Help" link which does display the topic and TOC is called using:

[a href="javascript:RH_ShowHelp(0,'WebHelp/default.htm>WithNavPane',
HH_HELP_CONTEXT, 5)"]Help[/a]

This assumes that the window layout you have defined for the topic+TOC
is called "WithNavPane"; let's say the other is called "NoNavPane".

I'm guessing that you (or the developers) need to change all the
field-level calls to RH_ShowHelp to pass the second parameter as
'WebHelp/default.htm>WithNavPane' instead of
'WebHelp/default.htm>NoNavPane' which it is at present (remember my
assumption just above this).

HTH,
