If you generate html, then you can use Microsoft's html help workshop to compile your html files into a .chm As an aside: with .Net there is an xml format for help files. To generate a .chm you need to generate 4 types of files, in my experience. 1. A .hhk file which is a html file with the .hhk extension which Microsoft uses for the index with a lot of markup like the following: <OBJECT type="text/site properties"><param name="FrameName" value="current"></OBJECT><LI><OBJECT type="text/sitemap"><param name="Name" value="COVER"> <param name="Local" value="enhelpfile.htm"></OBJECT></LI> <LI><OBJECT type="text/sitemap"><param name="Name" value="Welcome to ContexMLIDAOQWS"> <param name="Local" value="ENContextMLWelcome.htm"></OBJECT></LI> -- here I'm using something from an old project of mine, sorry if it sucks - 2. A .hhc file which is a list of the contents involved with very similar markup to the .hhk file 3. the files that you will be including in your help file. 4. a .hhp file which is a text file describing what you have in your html help project, hence the initials. The .hhp starts off with a list of html files compiled ENItniskWelcome.htm ENIdea.htm ENAboutItnisk.htm ENIdea.htm ENWordToXml.htm Followed by a bunch of options after the notice [OPTIONS] Compatibility=1.1 or later Compiled file=MediaMaxx.chm Contents file=MediaMaxx.hhc Default topic=ENItniskWelcome.htm Display compile progress=No Full text search stop list file=MediaMaxx.stp Full-text search=Yes Index file=MediaMaxx.hhk Language=0x406 Danish Title=ContexML The .stp file is the file of words you don't want to be searched/indexed. I went so far into this rather off-topic subject here because I have found there is absolutely no worthwhile documentation out there(not to say this was worthwhile just a quick starter) There are of course tutorials etc. on the subject but I have found them to be so paltry they're hardly even worth keeping copies of in my library. But probably one of the better sites for info would be http://www.helpware.net/ Here's some stuff on the comparison of the old help system and .net help http://www.helpware.net/FAR/help/msh2_primer.htm -----Original Message----- From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Satish, L.

Does anyone know of any libraries/tools to convert my DTD+XML+XSLT files to HTML in an automated way? Apache-Xalan lib is too huge to include to my project... Also I would like to know if there is a automated way(tools) to convert this generated HTML to .CHM (compiled help) file? XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
