Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Windows Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Invalid Priority: 5 Submitted By: Alexander Schremmer (alexanderweb) Assigned to: Thomas Heller (theller) Summary: CHM file contains proprietary link format Initial Comment: The .chm file distributed with Python contains URL using the proprietary link scheme mk:@MSITStore. While this is not a problem in Windows environments, it prevents e.g. xchm from loading the pictures. My suggestion is to advise the html help compiler to make these links absolute without specifying a protocol. As I do not have setup the html help compiler here, I cannot check if this is a working work around. Having a .chm file that is compatible to multiple platforms is a large advantage because you can advise newbies to get this file. They are easy navigatable and tend to be complete. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Alexander Schremmer (alexanderweb) Date: 2006-03-08 12:30 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=254738 I figured out that this issue seems to be related to xchm and that there are no ms-specific URLs in the source. I recommend non-windows users to choose http://www.kchmviewer. net/ as it is known to work correctly with python's chm file. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Thomas Heller (theller) Date: 2006-02-18 22:19 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=11105 The project files are generated by calling the script Doc/tools/prechm.py.

Martin, do you create the CHM file? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1434298&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
