I've succeeded to merge 2 chm files into one but
Application context sensitive help is not working now. Before, links were like "HELP/Outline1.htm". If I keep like that, it founds the subject in contents, locates it there but no help is displayed but page not found. Then, if I click on the subject, help text appears. If I change the link to HELP.chm::/HELP/Outline1.htm, help text appears but it cannot locate the subject on the left.
I wonder what is needed to open a help page in a merged help file and locate its subject in contents?
Is it possible to dive a chm file into two but context hierarchy should be same. What I mean is, I don't want to create another book. I need to open help context from another help file in a link
A
-- A.a
-- A.b
B
Currently I can only divide such a CHM into two but it becomes like below
A
-- A.a
B
A.b
Is it possible to divide chm and keep the content list as same
Regards,
Burak
I haven't really dove into merged chms yet, but I can share some urls from my notes. They are fairly common ones, so you might already have them. The second one is explicitely about context ids in merged help

In an nutshell:
I am looking for a way to automatically download files, listed as linkes on a website and give them meaningful names.
The situation:
There is a small radio show, I really love. It uploads FREE podcasts of there show. I recently found them and would like to download ALL of there shows (again they are free, so this is no copyright issue). Unfortunately on the website one can only download them one by one plus they .mp3s are given useless names.
The code of the side would look like this (maybe 1000 times...) .
Example:
<a href="theWebsite.com/subSide/abc.mp3>The name of the mp3</a>
Is there a way to download them automatically or at least give them a meaningful name ("The name of the mp3.mp3" instead of "abc.mp3").
Could you recommend a tool or have an idea how I could approach this problem?
Thanks a lot!
just add the download attribute to the "a href tag". The string you assign to such attribute will be the name of the downloaded file. In your case, for example, you can do it like this:
The name of the mp3
In a .txt file, I can hold down the "Option" button and select one or more columns.
Is there an equivalent for grabbing column information on a web page?
I am currently copying-and-pasting the website material into a .txt file, and then started to wonder if that step could be eliminated.
I'm not sure if I understand the question, but maybe this information will help anyways.

Good luck!
If it's data in an HTML <table> you can copy it and paste it into an Excel file. That should make it a lot easier to grab by columns.
I want to generate links that can be pasted in emails so I can show people folders in their directory structure such as where to edit their email signature manually.
I'm trying to put a link to the folder in an email but make it generic enough that when they forward it, everyone who opens it will get the link into their own directory structure properly so I need to use environment variables.
I type the text I want the link to say then highlight and CTRL-K then put %CSIDL_APPDATA%\Microsoft\Signatures\ in the link but Outlook changes my % symbols to %25's. I'd ask how to escape a % but it shouldn't be escaped I don't think since it's actually part of a link.

Simple answer, you can't. When you're linking like that, the current directory looks like root / to the html. So you could look at a subfolder of current directory (which you aren't guaranteed to know since it could be different on different OS's or even per user configuration) but that won't really help you.
This project will let you edit the actual HTML of your email by adding an Advanced tab but even with full control of the HTML, it can't be done. "It would open up a security hole the size of Denver."
Here's a lot of quality info on Relative Addressing which is what you're trying to do.
this is because outlook parse your input as HTML link.
I did not test it but you should give a try to this file://%CSIDL_APPDATA%/Microsoft/Signatures/

I often have to create a small website, that contains a set of documents (doc, xls, pdf, ppt, ...). The navigation is mostly the same as in the illustration below: chapters -> lessons -> documents. The number of lessons, chapters, documents and types of documents differ. The URL to the document can be the document name (whithout extension) or a custom/definable name per document.
At the moment I do this manually in Dreamweaver which is sometimes quite a job if you're having 100+ documents :)
Now what I want is a sort of tool, that generates me this kind of website, html based, which still gives me the opportunity to add a custom style/css to them. I need some sort of tool that allows me to create a directory structure, add the right files to the right directory, and convert this structure into a (basic) html page. Then afterwards I add a different CSS/Theme to it.
Does anyone has an idea what I can use for this?
I've found a tool called Snap2HTML that does the trick for me. However, I would like it to be more tweakable, as in theme-able, but it's a start :) The tool I found is Snap2HTML http://www.rlvision.com/snap2html/
If anyone knows a good alternative, please let me know.
Im creating a data entry form, i would like to give them the option to select an image from a specific directory, in which they can select one image.
now i have some image in one directory, i want to know how can i show them to the user.
Please help
You would need to use a server-side language to read the contents of a directory (PHP, for instance). There are many ways of doing this with PHP.
