open and display an HTML document from Menu item
« on: May 20, 2010, 01:14:37 PM »
Hi
I wrote an HTML help file for my app.
I put a menu item on the Main Menu called "help"
I want to open the HTML help file when they click on this menu item.
For the Menu item I put the title of the page 'WPSClinicHelp.html'  in the URL for the menu item.
I put '_self' in the window.
I have my help file in the same directory as my app and the directory below.
IE tells me that it cannot find the document when I click on HELP.
Am I doing it correctly or is there a better way to display this HELP file.
Thanks,
Ron Jolda

I'm pretty sure it should be in your web folder.

I have buttons on all screens to specific help doc's so I have but them all in my web\images\help folder and then I just tack images\help\ in front of the URL.

Hi Ron,

Kevin's Right - WPSClinicHelp.html should be in the web folder.
