opacs/XoMosaic, XoHelp
Hello
Is there a format for the help/html doc ?
Yes and no !!!
In fact there are two "help" widget,
XoHelp and XoMosaic.
If you are using XoMosaic "showTopic",
with the XoMosaicShowTopic routine, builds
an URL and gives it directly to the
widget. Then you must be in a full www context.
If you are using the "old" XoHelp widget
the doc file (now in html) must be formatted
so that the XoHelp widget is able to find the
subtopics.
My html files are formatted so the I am
able to switch from XoMosaic to XoHelp.
In first version of the Xo, I didn't get
rid of XoHelp, mainly because I was not
sure that the XoMosaic widget was portable.
XoMosaic rely on HTMLo and W3o libs which are a
repackaging of mosaic2.6/html and www libs.
In fact I add problems on VMS with these libs
but roughly it is ok now.
About the format... It is of the form.
