In the html docs on classes there are a bunch of "help" URL icons that
can be clicked. However, when I try this I get:
OmniWeb doesn't natively understand "help" URLs, and has no plug-in
currently loaded to deal with them.
So, is there a plug-in I can get? I tried to copy the html doc over to
another drive and tried to get it to run on Netscape, but no go there.
For that matter, what am I missing here; anything important? I hope to
hell I don't have to reload IE just to do this. The idea of soiling my
Powerbook with Microshit gives me the vapors.
thanks all

Those pages are designed to be viewed in Apple's Help Viewer, which I
believe is the only HTML renderer that understands help URLs.
Unfortunately, Help Viewer has its own problems like noncustomizable
text sizes and colors and lack of scroll wheel support. So you've got
to choose whether you want a customizable interface or the ability to
see what's attached to those help URLs. That's why I normally keep
both open, so I can do most stuff in OmniWeb, and switch over to Help
Viewer when I need to use one of those links(which is rare).
