Hello,

I have an application that uses help files that are compressed in a zip file.
The application uses wxHtmlHelpController to display the help contents.

I noticed that the help view generated by wxHtmlHelpController is unable to open links to PDF document using Acrobat reader; however, when the help contents are viewed using a *.CHM file or if I use wxCHMHelpController the PDF document is correctly opened.

My question is, how can I open PDF document when using wxHtmlHelpController ?

I also noticed that it is not possible to external URLs, that may require opening a new browser instance.
=> opening an HTML document that is not part of the help is also not possible when using wxHtmlHelpController.

Could you please direct me to a possible solution/workaround for this issue..

Thanks,
Shamla

I think this kind of OnLinkClicked will help
