[platform-help-dev] embedded help for web applications for InfoCenter Ec

["Erik Hennum" <ehennum@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, Eclipse Help Gurus:

We're contemplating embedding help topics within a web application window.
We'd like to pursue a strategy that will not only be valid for Eclipse

InfoCenter Eclipse 2.0.1, if that would clarify our approach.


Thanks in advance,
