Hello all,
I have a small problem with Java Help. My application needs to show a
table in the help menu. This is not really a problem as JH uses HTML.
The problem is that the table is big, and generated in an external
application, so it comes out in HTML 4 format. This page does not
display properly (because JH only supports HTML 3, I know). Any
suggestions or workarounds for these kinds of problems?

I did look for a tool to convert between html 4 and html 3, but I
could not find any, other solutions are also welcome.

regards
Daniel

It's difficult to say for sure, but the JavaHelp User Guide (JHUG) with
JavaHelp 2.0 suggests to me that it does in fact support HTML 4.0. The
spec makes mention of viewers having to support 3.2, but it specifically
states that localization is supported as required by HTML 4.0. And the
JHUG mentions some limitations of parameters and things in order to be
in compliance with HTML 4.0. So you might want to make sure you've got
the latest release and look through both the spec and JHUG.

I also saw mention in the spec of the ability to use alternate viewers
that will use the JEditorPane, which I'm pretty certain can do HTML 4
content.
