Assumptions This Book Makes

As you will learn in this book, you must write JavaHelp topics (the actual help topics that make up the JavaHelp system) in HTML. Since this book is about JavaHelp and not HTML, it assumes you have a basic understanding of HTML. I’m not saying you have to be a webmaster or an HTML programmer, but you must have a basic understanding of HTML tags and how to use them. I provide ideas on how to format your topics, but I don’t stop to explain what the HTML behind them means. If you have no experience with HTML, have no fear. All you will need is a good HTML editor to create your help topics. You may also want to refer to HTML: The Definitive Guide, by Chuck Musciano and Bill Kennedy (O’Reilly & Associates), as an HTML reference. I refer to this book many times when creating HTML topic files.
