Re: HtmlHelpController problem

Hi Keith,

What an interesting widget. Just out of curiosity, do you use the "HTML Help Workshop" software under Windows to create the html files? Its mentioned in the wxWidgets write-up for this control.

Cheers,
Ron.

Opening the help window from my program shows nothing at all in the help window. I have only been working on the html files, not the perl code. What I do is edit the html files and then zip them up into a help file. The program then uses the zip file:
