Thanks to Scott for the following comment added to the help wiki page: "JDIC at least for us has had several problems. It doesn't do popup browser windows well. It doesn't like showing up in any window other than the main application window. These problems vary from platform to platform (windows, osx, linux).
Sam and I are working on replacing it with a javaxpcom browser which we will have a lot more control over. You can see some notes about this here: http://confluence.concord.org/display/CCTR/Embedding+Mozilla+in+Java+with+XPCOM I'd recommend not spending time on JDIC. However, if getting a native browser working sooner than later will have large impact, I will try to find some time to work with you on it." I think it would be up to the group to decide if this is critical functionality to be added to the authoring tool. Based on previous discussions, I think yes. However I'm not sure if there is a time restriction on the goal, such as a date when this functionality is required. Does anyone know? As for how to do this with javahelp - I'm not attached to any technique. If we can make it work using a javaxpcom browser or JDIC it doesn't really matter. Scott - do you have any timeline on the javaxpcom work? Another alternative would be to find a wiki that might render pages better in the current javahelp browser or to make a wiki space in confluence that doesn't have lots of crazy formatting requirements. I'm skeptical of these techniques because the html in most wikis doesn't seem to be well formed anyway. I haven't looked into this at all so if anyone has ideas there, it would be nice to hear about them. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SAIL-Dev" group.
