Actually, there is a call similar to that:
http://<server>/<help
path>/wwhelp/wwhimpl/api.htm?context=<groupname>&topic=<TopicAlias
string>
<groupname> is a string you need to specify for merged help. It's kind
of weird that it's required when you're not merging help, but no big
deal. Web help URLs often look pretty gnarly.
So I plan to switch to WWP. It fixes the rendering bug with RoboHelp 9
output in IE8 and the output looks much better than what we've been
getting from RoboHelp.
