  We are outputting very short (~1 page) InDesign docs to HTML. Cross-references from one InDesign doc to another don’t work. A look at the HTML code shows a statement like <a href=”” – nothing in the HREF field.
  
  If I edit in the file name it works, but that means every time I change the InDesign I have to redo the links manually, and there are many.
  
  I tried have all of the Indesign files open as I generate the HTML, but that did not work. Any ideas?

  Probably a bug… x-refs and hyperlinks to other docs have been notoriously buggy in InDesign, and I have recommended for years that people not use them.
  
  Are you using InDesign’s own HTML export? Or a tool such as in5 from Ajar?
