Greetings All,

Back when we were using DITA-OT 1.3.1, we created HTMLHelp .chm files
with no problems. Now that we've migrated to DITA-OT 1.4.2.1, our
HTMLHelp files still publish successfully and the Contents and Index
tabs are working just fine. Unfortunately, the full-text search is
completely broken. No matter what we enter in the search field we get
a "No topics found" message.

I'm aware of the persnickety nature of the HTMLHelp compiler
regarding encoding so I pulled down Deborah's wonderful "plus" plug-
ins and incorporated them into our HTMLHelp build process. As I am
building on a US English Windows XP system, my system encoding is
Windows 1252 and my .hhp, .hhc, .hhk, and all my .html files all
appear to have a Windows 1252 encoding . . . but the search still
fails every time.

Any ideas?

Best regards,
