> 9 Generating Microsoft HTML Help > 9.6 Creating links and hypertext jumps in HTML Help > 9.6.1 Creating hypertext jumps to other CHM files
If you are using newlinks
and gotolinks to link to HTML files
created from a different FrameMaker document and compiled into a different .chm
,
you must specify how the CHM files are mapped; see §9.15.1 Interlinking multiple CHM files. Then Mif2Go can generate the proper jump reference for you.
To jump to the opening topic of another CHM file, the simplest method is to insert in your document a FrameMaker hypertext marker with the following marker content:
If someother.chm
is not registered in the Windows registry, also include the path, possibly
relative. (For commercial use, it is best to register .chm
s
in the Windows registry during installation.)
To jump to a file that is within someother.chm
,
add the name of the target file to the marker content; for example, to
get to the “a
” anchor inside letters.htm
in someother.chm
:
message URL someother.chm::/letters.htm#a
To jump to a specific topic in someother.chm
,
when the topic comes from a FrameMaker file that is being split (so you do not know
the .htm
file name ahead of time), insert a
regular FrameMaker cross reference. Run the Mif2Go conversion to someother.chm
first, then copy the .ref
file for someother.chm
into
your conversion project directory, and add this setting to the configuration
file:
For links to non-CHM files, see §9.6.3 Linking to external files from compiled HTML Help.
