1For online outputs, creating an index is typically done via a skin. By default, the MadCap style that controls index proxies is set to support only print-based outputs. However, you can change this. To do so, open your stylesheet, select the MadCap|indexProxy style, and set the mc-output-support property to all (all-print is the default setting). By doing this, you can use the index proxy method to generate an index in some online outputs as well.
