I have passed onto you and for rest, just in case you make it better.
What do you mean? What have you passed on to us and where is it?
Pablo César wrote:Regarding full path and files names in html, it is just for locations of:
- Source codes examples, usually at SAMPLES folders. This is a great think to make available some more examples tied to the main theme of each topic. It make easy for understand and this could be done by simple URLs which could appoint to localhost or at website when this doc been accessed by internet at
hmgdoc/data/index.htm
- Hosted pictures when some screen shots is necessary to be displayed, for example.
- Also a folders of examples can be opened in child window
Relative paths can be used to get to the samples, e.g. starting from the DOC folder, ..\SAMPLES\Controls\RichEditBox\demo.prg points to the rich edit box demo. This can be used in HMTL, but not in a CHM, because a CHM cannot include a file that is outside the top folder of the CHM. For these files, you have to use something like the gray button that I showed you before.
Your plans sound great but are also quite ambitious. Instead of
hmgdoc/data/index.htm, have you considered the HMG Wiki
http://hmgforum.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page? Everyone can contribute to the wiki instead of you doing everything.

You are right everyone can contribute in wiki but there are specific format.
As I said, I just tried to improve existing hmtl files, that's so.

Pablo, now I see what you are talking about.
I still think that the wiki is the way to go. It appears to me that what you are getting into would multiply the size of DOC many times and that could quickly eat up all your time.
It's true that the wiki format is different from HTML, but you or anyone else can do this conversion a little bit at a time, and then that part of it is available for everyone to extend.
There are several tools for automating conversion from HTML to MediaWiki format. Google "html mediawiki conversion".
