9.2.3 Customizing OmniHelp viewer control files

Table 9-1 lists the files included in OmniHelp viewer control-file archives. Files that have names that start with oh are HTML files, included in ohvhtmNN.zip. Files with names that start with ox are XHTML files, included in ohvxmlNN.zip. In Table 9-1, the names of these files are shown as starting with o?. All other files listed are included in both archives.

To customize OmniHelp, you can edit control files marked Yes under Edit? in Table 9-1. If you are a JavaScript expert, you can also edit .js files marked No. Edit control files only if necessary. If you intend to undertake extensive customization and distribute the results to third parties, you will also need the files in archive ohvm2gNN.zip, which is included in your Mif2Go distribution.
