Subject:WebWorks and secondary windows From:"Smith, Martin" <smithmr -at- ENCORP -dot- COM> Date:Thu, 3 Sep 1998 16:14:10 -0600
I am using WebWorks to create WinHelp files. I've been playing around
with mapping headings to produce pop-up windows. I'm having difficulty
controlling when the pop-up section ends. The pop-up section seems to
end when WebWorks encounters the next topic. Also, WebWorks treats the
pop-up tagged paragraph as a topic and thus includes it in the browse
sequence. Hence, the following questions:
* Has anyone figured out how to eliminate pop-up tagged paragraphs
from the browse sequence.?
* Has anyone managed to force the pop-up section to end when
WebWorks encounters the next heading above a specific level?
* And an unrelated question: Has anyone managed to get WebWorks to
insert buttons in the text that jump to a cross-referenced topic when
clicked on?
Thanks.
