CSH HTML5 from Frame 2017 How should the Developers call the help pages

I have followed various threads on creating CSH for HTML5 in Frame

I have Frame 2017

seen thread Context-sensitive help in FM 2017 - map file and code

Context-sensitive help in FrameMaker

and saw how to add the markers, use the h file etc.

The one thing is that not clear to me

What must I tell the programmers to call so that they get the correct help pages?

someone wrote in one of the threads that they must use

output-path>/index.html?rhcsh=1&rhmapid=<mapid>

<mapid> = content of corresponding TopicAlias Marker.

However, this includes robohelp code

Is this correct for someone who is only using Frame?

I have searched everywhere but not found the correct info to give the developers. I just need this missing link and we will be ready to go.

hi

I updated this on another thread

"The code that worked in the end for the programmer to call the CSH was

index.html?rhmapid=<code>

when she used the CSH_topicname

and not the number from the .h file

If you need the full instructions that we used for the whole procedure, i can copy them from here, but they were taken from the Frame Help files, and from posts here."

Do I need Robohelp with FrameMaker 2017 to generate CSH
