= Linking from JavaHelp to Javadoc =

== Description ==

This tip describes how to add a link from Java``Help 2.0 help to a Javadoc page. It applies when using ePublisher Pro with Word. 

== How To ==

Java``Help seems to require that the Javadoc to which you're linking is included in the Java``Help jar file. The following steps assume that the Javadoc is in a "javadoc" folder within your Java``Help jar file. You can simply copy the unjarred Javadoc into the Java``Help jar, but then you'll need to do this each time you generate the help. A better way to handle this is by putting the Javadoc output (unjarred) in a folder below the output target (e.g., Output\Sun Java``Help 2.0 \My``Help``Project\javadoc). It then gets sucked in during the help compile.

 1. In the Word document, add the HTML code for a normal <a href> link, using a relative path to the appropriate HTML file in the javadoc folder. For example: 
{{{<a href='javadoc/com/blah/StringFunctionFactory.html'>com.blah.StringFunctionFactory</a>}}}

 1.#2 Select the entire tag and mark it with a condition, such as "External_Link".

 1. In ePublisher, specify that the condition is passthrough/visible using the Format > Conditions option.
