NetHelp-Supported Parameters
Here is an example of a URL for NetHelp context-sensitive Help.
http://mysite.com/target/index.html?tab=1&topiconly=true#!documents/topic.htmlHere, the section after ? is called "query" and the part after # is called "hash," according to the common URL terminology (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Url#Syntax). Any URL has the following structure.
scheme://domain:port/path?query_string#hash_fragment)
QUERY Parameters
topiconly=true
All NetHelp elements will be hidden. Only the topic text will be shown and a css-class "topic-only" will be applied to the <body> element.
tab=0|toc|1|index|2|search
This parameter specifies the tab (by index or name) that will be shown when NetHelp is loaded. If any other value is specified, the parameter will be ignored.
HASH parameters
#!url
"url" is a path to a topic, either relative to the root NetHelp folder or absolute.
#?query
"query" is a key-value pair that defines a context sensitive query in the following format: "key=value." Key can be one of the following values: "keyword," "group," "id" and "search."
