I’m not sure how useful this will be to people, but Sumatra PDF, a lightweight PDF viewer, can open .chm help on network drives.
http://blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/free-pdf-reader.html It’s also generally a very nice, minimal PDF reader.

It's a security issue that has been around for years. Hope this helps. Roger Sent from my smartphone On 10 Nov 2014, at 15:53, David Millis <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: 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. My questions are: 1. Is there a setting I need to generate the help for the web-based application? 2. 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? 3. If I choose a different output, do the style and paragraph settings that are part of the HTML Help 1.x output automatically come into the new output type? Thank you so much for your help in advance.
