Hello,

I've been looking for an answer to this for some time, but I can't find one: Is there some way to have a "Tip of the day" display in its own window when a CHM (or any HTML) help file is called?

Thanks,
Andy

I like this, but as it is written (or so it seems to me with my limited knowledge) you can invoke a single window using a URL. In my experience, and what I'm looking for, is to have a different "tip of the day" from a list (array?) of tips kept in a single file. How on earth could I do that with this?

Hi Rick,

The first link doesn't seem to exist, and the second one is about an embedded tod on a webpage. Any suggestions for popup windows?

Thanks,
Andy

Hey Drewster, i was looking for the same thing but was not able to find it in any Adobe forums but went back to my favourite source for cool scripts and add ons. This site has a pop up window that will appear on page load to another html file. You could create a tip of the day file and then just add the link in the script. I like it because you don't have to click on a link to open the tip of the day. It pops up automatically, just like Robohelps tip of the day. Here's the link:

Hi Andy

Often a Tip of the Day is presented using a special help file that contains only tips. And your developer creates code that manages it. But there are a few JavaScript solutions out there. Perhaps check out the links below.
