How do I link to a HelpID or a Search Term without any programming, through a URL?

I have looked through the documentation, and it seems that every "possibility" to call either a search term or a HelpID/CHSID for my documentation is to use some sort of API.
Is there a way to call the search function and CHSIDs directly by only typing a URL in a browser (or link from another page, or from an email, etc etc)?
I'd actually like to know for all 3 outputs I am potentially going to be using: WebHelp, WebHelp Pro (RoboHelp Server 9) and HTML5, as I'm not sure yet which form it will take at the software release.
Thanks!

Hi OL-Lachance
A couple of items I would add to Willam and Colum's comments.
At the present time, WebHelp Pro (the Rh Server 9) does not support HTML5 output. WebHelp on a conventional web server is fine.
In terms of the odd terminology for CSH, the term MAP Number or Map ID, generally refers to a unique number that is assigned to a topic so that it can be referred to in the application calling the help. The Topic ID is generally an alphanumeric string which is often the name of the topic title connected by underscores. Depending on the language of the application, sometimes only the Map number or sometimes only the Topic ID is used. Or, as you have learned, sometimes neither one is used and a URL is used instead!
You and your developers may also find these topics helpful in the RoboHelp online help which can be downloaded here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/robohelp/robohtml/robohelp_11_help.pdf
Look at Chapter 11 for some interesting specifics on the many ways to call CSH. Of course the links mentioned in Willam's and Colum's posts are excellent as well.

Firefox properly goes to my set home pages; how do I get it to use my preferred SEARCH ENGINE (without having to be able to PROGRAM)?

I want to choose the search engine; Firefox goes to Google. My home pages are properly set. The only solution offered to this question earlier would have you go to Web Developer and instantly was WAY over my head. How can an ordinary person change this? Thank you.

How do I know if a file is open (being used) by any program?

I'm trying to write a program that will log file usage. For example, it will log when a file (or program) begins to be used (or opened), and then log when it is closed.
So what I'm looking for is a method / algorithm that will tell me if a file is currently open (or if an executable fileis currently open, in the case of a program).

If you mean the ability to do this system wide (and not just in your app) then you would need to use JNI and a HOOK function (assuming this is windows you are talking about). I am sure there are similar hooks in UNIX/LINUX.

How could it be possible to completely restrict other users to view any sites through firefox browser with the help of password ?

I want complete control of firefox browser for my computer.
For example:
There is a similar feature in Internet Explorer which is called 'Content Adviser'.
To restrict others for viewing sites through Internet Explorer here is what has to be done:
1. Click to open Internet Explorer.
2. Click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.
3. Click the Content tab, and then, under Content Advisor, do one of the following:
*Click Enable. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
*If you've previously enabled Content Advisor, click Settings, and then type the supervisor password. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
4. To allow others to view restricted content, click the General tab, and then select the Supervisor can type a password to allow users to view restricted content check box.
5. To allow others to view unrated content, select the Users can see websites that have no rating check box, and click OK.
6. If a supervisor password has not previously been set up for Content Advisor, you will be prompted to create one.

Looks like verdana is selected to 'off' in font book. Not sure if this could be the reason as to why i'm experiencing problems.

How to update link and import data of relocated incx file into inca file?

Subject : how to update link and import data of relocated incx file into inca file.? The incx file was originally part of the inca file and it has been relocated. ------------------- Hello All, I am working on InDesignCS2 and InCopyCS2. From indesign I am creating an assignment file as well as incopy files.(.inca and .incx file created through exporing). Now indesign hardcodes the path of the incx files in inca file.So if I put the incx files in different folder then after opening the inca file in InCopy , I am getting the alert stating that " The document doesn't consists of any incopy story" and all the linked story will flag a red question mark icon. So I tried to recreate and update the links. Below is my code for that //code start***************************** //creating kDataLinkHelperBoss InterfacePtr<IDataLinkHelper> dataLinkHelper(static_cast<IDataLinkHelper*> (CreateObject2<IDataLinkHelper>(kDataLinkHelperBoss))); /** The newFileToBeLinkedPath is the path of the incx file which is relocated. And it was previously part of the inca file. eg. earlier it was c:\\test.incx now it is d:\\test.incx */ IDFile newIDFileToBeLinked(newFileToBeLinkedPath); //create the datelink IDataLink * dlk = dataLinkHelper->CreateDataLink(newIDFileToBeLinked); NameInfo name; PMString type; uint32 fileType; dlk->GetNameInfo(&name,&type,&fileType); //relink the story InterfacePtr<ICommand> relinkCmd(CmdUtils::CreateCommand(kRestoreLinkCmdBoss)); InterfacePtr<IRestoreLinkCmdData> relinkCmdData(relinkCmd, IID_IRESTORELINKCMDDATA); relinkCmdData->Set(database, dataLinkUID, &name, &type, fileType, IDataLink::kLinkNormal); ErrorCode err = CmdUtils::ProcessCommand(relinkCmd); //Update the link now InterfacePtr<IUpdateLink> updateLink(dataLinkHelper, UseDefaultIID()); UID newLinkUID; err = updateLink->DoUpdateLink(dl, &newLinkUID, kFullUI); //code end********************* I am able to create the proper link.But the data which is there in the incx file is not getting imported in the linked story.But if I modify the newlinked story from the inca file,the incx file will be getting update.(all its previous content will be deleted.) I tried using Utils<IInCopyWorkflow>()->ImportStory() ,But its import the incx file in xml format. What is the solution of this then? Kindly help me as I am terribly stuck since last few days. Thanks and Regards, Yopangjo

How can I link two frames via a button on one of the frame?help Plz

Ok,here is the problem. I got two fully working java frames,each has different funcion. On one of the frames(my home Frame" Frame 1" ) i got a button called "Add User", when i press it i should then get my other frame(Frame2) to popup/run. in Frame1 i got this code as action for the add user button.Note: each Frame have thier own Main class.
public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent e)
if (e.getSource()==jbtnAddUser)
// new Frame2(this,"hshsh",jb);
////////////// The commented line is where i am not sure what to put in there, Frame1 is the name of my Frame 2 class......
Please could anyone tell me how do i link Frame 2 to Frame 1....i appreciate it....Max

You can create both together on pgm startup (instaniation of the class).
Next for frame1 - I'll call it - you can setBounds(int, int, int, int) and setVisible(true); When you press the button on frame1 to get frame2, you can then do frame1.hide(), followed by frame2 setBounds and setVisible. Finally, when you are done with frame2 you can do frame2.dispose() and frame1.show(). try that.

You are logging in iCloud for the first time. In this case, first you need to log in iCloud on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch or Mac. See > http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup
If you have not got a device to set iCloud up, you cannot use it. You can only use iCloud on your PC if you have got an Apple device

How can i link my E-mail with my iPad in a way that i can delete my messages from my email inbox server not from my iPad inbox only?

How can i link my E-mail with my iPad in a way that i can delete my messages from my email inbox server also not from my iPad inbox only?
Because when i delete emails from my iPad inbox, it will be deleted on my iPad only but when i check my email inbox server from the browser its not deleted!
So how can i set up this link so when i delete any email from my iPad it will be deleted from my email inbox server also?

Hi Pierrot10,
Insert your backup disc (or plug your external hd), then open Mail.
In the File menu, click *Import Mailboxes* and follow the steps for a *Mail for Mac OS X* transfer.
Navigate to your CD/DVD's or external HD's backup and hit "OK".
This should create a new "Imported" folder in Mail with all your old messages in it, that you can then rearrange as you wish, creating new mailboxes etc.

How do I link to another page in the same iBook?

I am trying to link from within the text of my book to another page in the same iBook. How do I do that in iBooks Author?
For example...
The text on page 1 might read.... "If you'd like to jump to the page on herbivores, click here". And that text would be linked to page 49, which is about herbivored.
Any ideas? Greatly appreciated!!

It looks like I figured this out by playing around with it.
The reason that I couldn't bookmark the text earlier is that I had created a text box and entered text in there. When you create a text box, that text is not recognized by the bookmark widget. However when you type directly into the page template itself, it recognizes the text just fine. I'm able to set bookmarks and then link to those bookmarks using the hyperlink featuer. Looks like it's solved, I was just trying to use the wrong tool for text entering.
Thanks for your help Don, you've been great!

You're welocme
Depending on the size of the app or the connection speed when using Wi-Fi it could take a little longer to download. You can also try to download it onto your computer, might be faster, and sync it to the phone after that.

How can I link contacts (e.g.. Facebook and Exchange) in Mountain Lions Contact App

After I installed ML and setted everthing up, everthing is fine. On my iPhone and iPad as well as on the Mac the contacts are there. Alle contacts with same Name / Email are linked. But some, where name is not 100% matching are not. On iPhone and iPad i can link them manually but this linking is not synced between the devices. Well anyway, this is not a problem. Then i tried to link the respective contacts in Contact App on the Mac. There seems to be no option to do that. How can I link contacts on the Mac?
Thx
Jan

Do you think it's acceptable if I simply put the contact email address without a link so users can just look at it and then copy and paste into their own web client/browser?
You have to be a masochist to consciously publish an email address on a site anymore. In a matter of weeks or months, you will get hit with so much spam mail, you won't want to open your inbox.
Use a form-to-email-processing script in PHP, ASP or whatever programming language your server supports. Find one that hides your email address and has good spam prevention built-in. It may take you an entire day to set-up your first contact form but it's worth it. Otherwise, use a service. See links below:
