Getting over my pride and asking what I assume is a very elementary question:
When my WebHelp comes up, I want the browser window to be a specific size and appear at a specific location on the screen. Where do I specify this? Clearly not under WINDOWS...that doesn't seem to work. Do I need to write it into the target .htm file?
Thanks for the help.

If you have a window created whilst WebHelp is youe default single source layout you'll find various window options. The default otpion is to use the user's default browser settings. With this selected it is down to the end user's settings where the window appears and how it appears. If you deselect this optino you have some control how the window placement appears.

Hi there
Colum is spot on *IF* you are presenting your WebHelp using the WebHelp API. If you aren't doing that, the WebHelp window definition will be about as useful as Donny Osmond's old Clearasil empties!
If you are just opening WebHelp into a standard browser and not opening via the WebHelp API, you can still accomplish this, but it will require custom coding your start page to size and position itself. Use Google to locate some JavaScript sites. Usually those offer this type of manipulation. I think it involves a window.moveto or some such.
Cheers... Rick
