Presumably they will give you the link, since it is specific to
their process.  Once they do that, you can embed it the same way
you embed any other link in Frame, with a hypertext marker that
starts with "message URL".  Mif2Go passed those through unaltered.

HTH!

opening program files from an html file

2009-07-23 Thread Martha Lee
Hi All,

Im using FrameMaker 7.2 and Mif2Go to generate html files that the
developers are going to display within a pane in our software interface.
They've asked me to embed a file link in the html file so that when the user
clicks on that link, it opens the specified file in our software. The file
formats are unique to our software. Any ideas on how to do this?

Thanks for your help.
