That's the hope, yes.

No point in maintaining 2 services doing the same work; so once the
pages generated directly from .xhp's are better than those from
wikihelp, I can imagine the switch & slowly abandoning wikihelp
("freeze" it and make available only for old versions, or so).

With working directly on .xhp's, the extended tooltips are not a blocker
any more, can be extracted or not, neither of these possibilities is a
problem.

All the best,
Kendy

I'm no wizzard of web technology so I had to start the long march with
the first step which is the proof of concept. In this particular case
the difference between a online and local help service is a change in
the protocol (from html:// to file://, which I had not solved yet) and
all the rest is the same.

On the wikihelp, I don't think it has to be abandonned. "Au contraire",
it has matured and it works. Let's stay with the wikihelp, until the
other solution proves better.

One of the challenges.

Currently for evaluation: http://hc3.edx.srv.br and is work in progress.
I restored the navigation and I left ugly styles to make sure it will be
improved one day.

Absolutely not. +1000.

modulo the insertion on the  in each xhp file, which
is easily automated and should not change a pixel in the display.

Thanks to Olivier for this great work, I tested it yesterday and it's
already a nice move. Just for my understanding, I thought it was to be
able to replace the current embedded browser LibreOffice is providing.
So that mean that the help files could be displayed either locally and
on a webservice? And the wiki will be abandoned in that case?

I forgot where do we stand with the extended tooltips, is there still a
technical issue to extract them and what remains is the l10n problem?
Thanks,
