And of course you don't know much of anything about Windows. Windows help is a CHM file, which is a compiled package including HTML pages, images, CSS, index, etc. It has nothing to do with browser settings. A CHM file is rendered by an IE window but there's no choice in how it's done. It's handled by the help system. In other words, it's not renered in IE. It's rendered in a special help window that uses an IE browser sub-window to display the help content. The problem was that the CSS inside the CHM file is faulty. The technical details: The text area was positioned in absolute terms but had no positioned parent. That's like saying Oshkosh is 6 miles east. It means nothing because we don't know what it's 6 miles east of. At least some versions of IE will not render the text at all when that error occurs. Since I'm on Windows I have no choice in the matter. |
