Tagging help ids with topics for context sensitive help pages in CHM and Frameless output

Hi,

The CHM file is generated and bundled as a single file in a . CHM form by the RoboHelp tool to work in an application, and in a Frameless output, each help file is available as a separate HTML file.

Could someone explain internally within the application how the tagging helps IDs with context-sensitive topics in a CHM and Frameless output is done?

RoboHelp simply applies the Map ID to the topic. It's then up to the developers in their software to make a call to the Map ID. It's their software doing the work.

Hi Peter,

It seems that the link is broken.

Yes and the 404 page you got explains why and gives you a link to the home page of my site. The page you want is in the TOC.
