<div dir="ltr">David, you don't mention what tools or process you use to create the CHMs, but I'll try to answer your questions:<div><br></div><div>1. As Roger mentioned, you cannot open a CHM over the web or on network drives. It's a format for local deployment only.</div><div><br></div><div>2. You can probably just use the uncompiled HTML.</div><div><br></div><div>3.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Up to this point, I’ve never generated web-based help, only Microsoft HTML Help 1.x with Framemaker 7.2 as my source documents. The program that my help
is used in is now being used as part of a suite of web-based programs. When I view the CHM file in the web-based application, I only see the books, chapters, and headings on the left side. I don’t see any of the actual Help content. That very same CHM file
shows all as it should when the application is on my C: drive.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

</span></span></span><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">If I need to change the output, what output do I need to select that would require the absolute bare minimum of work on my part?<u></u><u></u></span></p>
