Is there a help for HTML tags which can be used from within UE?

    When I am typing a HTML-Tag, for example <TD ...> and I do not know which options for this Tag exist, is there a possibility to get the detail-information, which options are available? Right-Mouse-Button or a function-key? :oops:
    With the editor phase5 it is a way just the Function-Key F10 "Complete the Tag" or Right-Mouse-Button. And the options shown are selected just for this specific Tag. :wink:

      Not available from UltraEdit as part of the editor, the information you want more than likely can be found here:

        At http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/ is the official HTML 4.01 specification.

        But more necessary for you could be the chm version of the HTML 4.0 reference at http://www.htmlhelp.com/distribution/ .

        You can add this chm file as user help to UltraEdit and assign a hotkey to this user help. Now you only have to highlight the HTML element and press the hotkey to get full help about the element.

          Thanks a lot for your answers!
          Just one problem, I could assign a hotkey, the help "HTML 4.0 Reference" is opening, even the marked tag in UE is in the help-window on left side marked, but on the right side is no connection to the internet. "Explorer is not able to connect..."
          What is the problem? The Internet-Connection is open!

            Open internet connection? I use it offline without any internet connection.

            The compiled html help html40.chm is a offline windows help file. It can be opened without an internet connection as uedit32.chm does.

            Open html40.chm once directly by double clicking on it in Windows Explorer or your favorite file manager. It should open without trying to access the internet. I have registered on several computers, that sometimes the chm parser, which uses the DLLs from Internet Explorer, tries to open an internet connection, but I simply denied this once and it never tried it again.

              I have tried to doubleclick the HTML40.CHM but without success! :cry: As I explaint already, left side, ok, right side "Aktion abgebrochen" or "Die Seite kann nicht angezeigt werden."
              I have downloaded from "http://www.htmlhelp.com/distribution/" the third file from the top. "HTML 4.0 Reference - Microsoft HTML Help". But it does not work. I do not know why.

                I'm getting the same results. Our office has an open connection. Do you know if it uses a different port for connection or has the link in a user-configurable method? Thanks for the original response!

                  Because I guess, that you have only a problem with html40.chm and not with other chm files, I decompiled it with Microsoft's HTML Workshop and looked into the html files. I can see, that all html files of this chm file contains two lines with an url to the homepage of htmlhelp.

                  <link rel=Glossary href="http://www.htmlhelp.com/glossary/glossary.html">
                  <link rel=Copyright href="http://www.htmlhelp.com/copyright.html">

                  I don't really know, why I have no problem with html40.chm. Maybe because I have set Opera as default browser and Internet Explorer is extremly restricted by me.

                  You could write an email to the author of html40.chm and ask for a better version.

                  However, I have a second source for a html reference chm file. It contains not so many infos as html40.chm, but all html elements, attributes, css attributes and html entities are described. It's one of the Microsoft's help docs for the HTML Workshop.

                  Download HelpDocs.zip from

                  http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/deta ... layLang=en

                  and extract htmlref.chm and use it in UltraEdit. You don't need to install HTML workshop!

                  Edit on 2009-07-14: In the meantime I have created a real offline CHM version for HTML4.01 and CSS2.1. See the RAR files referenced in the topic Tools for online help on PHP, HTML and CSS (etc).
