if it’s going to add any significant time to the schedule, but I’m convinced that it’s a key feature that can enhance the user experience, and one of the few advantages that HTML can provide over PDF. If we don’t implement it this time around, I’d like to
include it next time.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Personally I think you are stabbing at windmills. It isn't all that difficult to decompile a CHM, make a change, and recompile. How many do?<br>
I produce OracleHelp for Java from Frame source. It also produces HTML for the content. It is delivered as server based, but there is nothing to prevent someone changing the HTML. Haven't heard of anyone doing it.<br>

We're concerned about the OmniHelp files on the theory that if people can do something, someone will. That could be a completely unfounded concern, so I'm glad to hear opinions to the contrary.<br>

<br>
I agree with Jeremy, standalone EclipseHelp is a huge and complicated distributable. It's not a practical format. I'm not sure if there's a use case where it would make sense.<br>
<br>
Why would users mess with your help files?<br>
