I have used the folderitem's Launch method to do this without a hitch before.
There may be
circumstances where the user defined a non-browser program to open HTML files,
which isn't what
you have in mind. But if that's what the user wants, that what they get.
For the next version of ImagePlay I have designed a help system based around a
lightweight HTTP
server that supports searching. After I release the next ImagePlay I'll work on
packaging the help
server into a self-contained project and probably make an announcement on the
list.
Thank you,
