Subject: Slow TOC tree in webhelp when there are a large number of heading entries
Hi, I am using the webhelp output with a set of very long documents. I'm seeing slow performance with the Javascript table of contents tree when there are a large number of TOC entries. This causes a serious problem because Internet Explorer opens a dialog box asking whether I'd like to "stop running this script." Internet Explorer 8 displays the dialog box when I include about 690 headings in my test document. The performance in Firefox, Chrome, and Safari aren't that bad. The Internet Explorer dialog is really unacceptable because it interrupts each page load. I'm looking into the underlying JavaScript. The developer tools in IE8 tell me that a function named "L" is taking the most time. I think that L is a part of the jquery libray. I'm not familiar with tuning JavaScript though. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Do you know a way to speed up the TOC loading? Thanks for your help. Peter Desjardins
