| If you send me the sql, I'll probably create a view of the document names, run my eye over it, and then dummy up some SQL to just fix those. |

| I'm working over some kinks with the cross references. I plan on tweaking the index into something more friendly as well, and will probably hit the Table of Contents while I'm at it...
If you wanted a preliminary look, or a chm to test code, context help, and getting rid of winhelp, yadda yadda...
http://cid-73890baf188d56e7.skydrive.live.com/browse.aspx/Public/MC%20Help%20Files
has a chm.
The default contents page needs work... (understatement) pick a few other topics before you pass judgement, please :) | Top |

| Sorry it took so long, I got distracted by the templates stuff.
I can't get *any* pages to work (from the contents anyway), it says:
Cannot find server or DNS Error
Internet Explorer
How do you suggest I test? Dropping the file into the MUSHclient folder doesn't work because that looks for the old .hlp file. |

| you can test from the command line with:
C:\>HH.EXE -mapid 12030 ms-its:C:/xTemp/mushclient.chm
12030 is the help context id to pull up.
ms-its: is a literal string (protocol handler)
the path will change accordingly.
Solving the "exe looks for the .hlp" issue is earlier in the thread. All the html help in mfc links give the overide code.
It's weird that you're getting no pages. On one of the error pages, would you mind right clicking, going to properties, and give me the url that it's trying to hit?
it should be something like:
mk:@MSITStore:C:\Users\WillFa\Desktop\MushClient.chm::/general_doc/contents.htm
I'm working on filtering the unhelpful help pages out of the index and full-text search (i.e. GoToUrl has only menu, hotkey, and summary... btw, I can't figure out why you'd grab the mouse, highlight a link, and then go to a menu and select a menu item to open the highlighted link... instead of clicking on it...)
Also, I'm putting the cross-references in the index instead of the page content. The flow of "Go to the index, find a topic, open the topic to find references" seems to defeat the purpose of having an index.

| Weird....
I found this
After you install the Microsoft security update MS05-026 (KB896358), CHM help file topics may not display correctly if the file the help file was received via e-mail, or downloaded from the Internet. Instead, an error message such as ‘Action cancelled’ or ‘DNS error’ is displayed.
Recent Microsoft security updates include changes to the InfoTech protocol, which prevent CHM help files from being displayed correctly if the CHM help file is blocked by Windows Attachment Manager. Even if the security warning is acknowledged, the help file is not displayed correctly. The problem also arises when a blocked CHM help file is opened via the HtmlHelp API.
Unblock a blocked CHM Help File
1. In Windows Explorer, right-click the blocked file, and then click Properties.
2. In the General tab, click Unblock.
Open a blocked CHM Help File
1. Double-click the help file in Windows Explorer.
2. If a security warning dialog appears, uncheck the box ‘Always ask before opening this file’.
3. Click Open to open the help file.
See if that help?
other suggestions at http://www.help-info.de/en/xml/maml_troubleshooting_hh.xml
If this is the case, the problem is because you got the file from my website, and shouldn't affect the installed chm.

| Ah the old Unblock button. Sounds kind of painful. ;)
Well it works now, thanks. I don't remember ever seeing that button before. |

| Looks good now. The examples seem indented, is that intentional?
Some of the cross-referencing isn't perfect, for example ColourNote does not mention Note, and vice-versa (the online one does). |

| Yea, Thank You MS for trying to save me from myself. Don't fix the exploitable holes, fix the user... :| Stupid Unblock button.
The indenting on code samples is part of the css... It can change.
The wonky cross references are because of the whole See_also vs doc_name vs cascading cross refs (general_doc_xref table) kind of stuff. I've made more headway on that.
