Opening Context-Sensitive Help in WebWorks Reverb 2.0 using Standard URLs

You can open WebWorks Reverb 2.0 from the application using standard URLs.

To open a specific topic in WebWorks Reverb 2.0, use the following URL:

helplocation/index.html#context/topic_alias

or with the now optional group_context parameter:

helplocation/index.html#context/group_context/topic_alias

The variable parts of this URL are defined as follows:

helplocation

Specifies the location of the desired WebWorks Reverb 2.0 help set. If the help is on a Web server, specify the location using the http protocol and the Web site path to the root of the help, such as https://www.webworks.com/help.

group_context

Now optional, but useful when you have the same topic alias value used in more than one group. Specifies the group context value for the top-level group in which the topic resides in Document Manager. This group context is specified in merge settings for each top-level group.

topic_alias

Specifies the value of the TopicAlias marker in the topic to open.
