RE: CHM file download

[Sandeep Singh Rawat <ssrawat () quark co in>]

Hi,

        Yeah that is also an option but chm file will be downloaded once,
and will be opened quickly once downloaded, while html files will increase
the response time. We are planning to use html files if chm file doesn't
work. 
        My application is a windows application (.NET exe) and user will be
launching it through browser, help will be provided on pressing F1 or by
Help Menu.
 
Thanks & Regards
Sandeep Singh Rawat

Hello,

Why not to use simple html files?

See http://www.edonkey2000.com/documentation/index.html for an example.
