RE: [docbook-apps] HTML Help compiler question

["Mauritz Jeanson" <mj at johanneberg dot com>]

	From: Kenneth Johansson 
	 
	I've found out with the help of Bob Stayton that the MicroSoft HTML
Help compiler can't 	handle image paths above the HTML Help project
directory.
	 
	I'd like to know if there are any other HTML Help compilers out
there that does a better 	job than M$, and of course works with the
DocBook stylesheets?
	 
	 
	For reference and more information see the following conversation
between Bob and Jirka:

	The workaround is to use $htmlhelp.enumerate.images and copy all
images
	that are in directories above project file into the same directory
as
	the project file is in. HTML Help compiler should correct broken
image
	links this way and create proper CHM with images included. Not nice
but
	could help if you can't rearange your directory structure.
	




I'm sorry, but I have never heard of any other HTML Help compilers.
You mention a workaround for the problem. Did you try it? What happened?
