How to open context sensitive topic in full help window

[idexx]

Our Web application has tips for the user that include links to individual help topics. Currently, when the user clicks a link, the topic opens in a browser window, but the TOC is not displayed, only the Show/Hide link. We would prefer to have the entire help window displayed, including the TOC (synchronized). The Help opens just fine if the user selects it from the menu or the main help button.

Is there any way to give users the full help window, with TOC, nav bar etc., no matter which topic is first displayed? I'm using RoboHelp 6 and have searched the online help for information but couldn't find an answer.

Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

Welcome to the forum.

It's quite straightforward using a URL and there are other ways. See the topics on my site about calling webhelp.

The information on your Web site looks like just what we need; I've sent the link to our developer. Thanks very much!
