Good day,

Please can somebody remind me of how to formulate a URL (in the infocenter
scenario) that points to the first page in an infoset?  We want to direct
users to a particular infoset in our table of contents.

We've tried:  http://server:8080/help?topic=/pluginId/path_to_file.html
where the path_to_file.html is the topic that is associated with the toc
element in the primary toc (<toc label="tocName" topic="filename.htm">) but
this didn't seem to work.

The URL resolved to:
http://server:8080/help/help.jsp?topic=/pluginId/ax99999_.htm (added an
additional help.jsp into the URL) which displayed the requested topic
(ax99999_.htm) but wouldn't allow me to synchronize the navigation tree to
only show those topics contained within the specified infoset.

Is this behaving as expected?

This particular infoset comprises one doc plugin and therefore has only one
toc.xml (which is - of course - the primary TOC).

Any ideas?

Thanks,


Steve
