Opening Context-Sensitive Help in WebWorks Reverb 2.0 using the WebWorks Help API
In addition to using simple URLs for opening context-sensitive help, you can alternatively use an API that is incorporated into your application. Using an API makes it easier to enable help buttons in your application so that the load the correct page in your Reverb 2.0 output.
WebWorks Reverb 2.0 uses the same API as WebWorks Help 4 and 5.
Steps for Enabling the Context-Sensitive Help API for use with WebWorks Reverb 2.0
1. On the Project menu, select the Active Target you want to specify settings for.
2. On the Target menu, click Target Settings.
3. In the WebWorks Reverb 2.0 category, set WebWorksHelpAPICompatibility to Enabled.
4. Click OK to save the target settings.
5. Have your application developers download the WebWorks Help SDK located at: http://wiki.webworks.com/DevCenter/Projects/WebWorksHelp/WebWorksHelpSDK. Depending on the technologies your application uses, your developers will be able to incorporate the API and then make context-sensitive API calls to your published Reverb 2.0 output.
