Web compatible slashes

Using SQL Doc 1.1, generated html uses backslashes '\' instead of '/' which are used in urls. Served with IIS, IE 7 has no problems with included elements; images, stylesheets, etc. Firefox on the other hand can still see the html pages, but stylesheets cannot be found because the '\' becomes '%5C'. Other than that, I really like the generated docs.

Also, does anyone have a link to the chm compiler on MS's site?

  • Problem also described here.
  • Also, folders seem to be capitalized in some references and lowercase in others. This makes it difficult if hosting documentation on a case-sensitive web server such as Apache. Preference would be for folders and links be all lowercase.

    Hello,

    I have logged this issue as a software bug, so we will look into a fix for it, if applicable.
  • I think that the CHM complier can be located at the following link...

    Hope that helps

  • Thank you. I also put together a *nix shell script to fix most of the backslash and capitalization issues. Some images still have capitalization issues.

  • Hi there,
    Just to let you know that SQL Doc 1.2 has been released and this should resolve this problem.
    Regards
