TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
The simple fact that things run fine on your end before you hand it
off to the developers should be your first clue that you have probably
done things right and the problem lies elsewhere. ;)
Sounds like the developers are lnking to one of the topic pages inside
WebHelp without calling the surrounding frameset that provides the
main toolbar and navigation pane.
Cheers... Rick :)
