Omni Systems, Inc. Mif2Go User's Guide, Version 55
> 7 Producing on-line Help > 7.8 Creating pop-up topics for Help systems > 7.8.3 Displaying a topic in a pop-up window
For WinHelp, to make a topic pop up, assign property
PopOver
to the hotspot format:
See §8.9 Creating jumps and pop-ups for WinHelp.
If your HTML-based Help system has a Mif2Go-generated browse sequence, to avoid including pop-up topics in the browse sequence you must declare these topics to be extracts instead of splits; see §18.3 Extracting files.
For HTML Help, all you get is plain-text pop-ups, unless you use a third-party tool. To create a pop-up link in HTML Help, put the entire pop-up content (plain text only) in a FrameMaker hypertext alert marker embedded in the hotspot.
See §9.5 Creating pop-ups for HTML Help.
OmniHelp, JavaHelp, Oracle Help for java
For OmniHelp, JavaHelp, and Oracle Help for Java,
you can use any HTML in pop-up topics, including graphics and jumps.

to the hotspot format:
§10.9 Jumping to secondary windows in OmniHelp
§11.8 Defining windows for JavaHelp or Oracle Help.
