HTML Mappings

Hi, I'm setting mappings of various Frame tags to HTML elements, such as step1 > LI. I set it in each and every document in my Frame book, but when I save as HTML, some of them get mapped to H6 or some such. Any idea why this is happening? I've checked the reference pages of all documents to see that they're properly mapped, but still...

thanks
Scott

It's always useful to know what specific version of FM, from Help > About, the "pxxx" numbers.

I'm hoping that somebody will jump in here, as I don't have 7.1 any more nor have I used FM's built-in save as HTML much.

Not to avoid and answer but to give you at least some quicker options, if you are doing much HTML conversion there's a much, much more versatile tool called MIF2Go from <http://www.omsys.com> that is great for outputting HTML, gives much better results than FM's built-in filters. Jeremy Griffith offers MIF2Go free (yes, free!) to unemployed tech writers, even, and he also has a good trial period, so it's worth checking out.

btw, there is a free update to 7.1p116 that corrects some fairly significant issues, available here:
