Subject:Re: Search function in uncompiled HTML Help? From:Peter Kleczka <pkleczka -at- yahoo -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Fri, 8 Jun 2001 11:38:13 -0700 (PDT)
Hi
You can use RoboHTML to generate a search.
You compile it as WebHelp not as .chm.
You can even use it on html files that
weren't generated in RoboHTML.
However, if you use files that weren't
created with RoboHelp, you
should make sure the title tags in
each html page has informative title,
since these titles are what appear as
the search results.
