Hi Maria,

I have been looking up information regarding creation of context-sensitive
HTML help for web applications for some time now. According to RoboHelp,
context-sensitive HTML help is compatible with applications developed in C
and C++ only, therefore we won't be able to use Map IDs as we do for desktop
applications using WinHelp.

However, there is one method to integrate the help pages with the relevant
application page. This can be done by getting the path or the name of the
relevant application page and then opening the particular help page in a new
window using the name retrieved from the web application.

For reference, I am attaching a presentation i downloaded from
www.userfirst.net. It gives a sample code for all kinds of context sensitive
helps.

I think you need to give the exact file names for each HTML page of your
help to the developer for integration.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Khizran

Hi All,

I have created web-based help with a freeware tool called Helpmaker. I
need to integrate the help with our product which is a web-based
application. How do I integrate them, what are the files that I need to
give to the developer ??

Any useful links would be appreciated.

regards
