In earlier musings about full-text search, I wondered whether the lack of full-text search (FTS) in the standard DITA OT XHTML outputs was restrictive. Bob Doyle pointed out that Eclipse Help InfoCenters provide FTS, and that led to some further wonderings about the complexity of Eclipse Help installations. I've since noticed some DITA users have come up with some ingenius workarounds so that DITA content can be turned into beautiful "WebHelp" output just like that produced by HTML-based Help Authoring Tools. Discussions on the DITA Users list have revealed that Bjarne Melin uses CHM2Web to convert a DITA OT-produced CHM file to a very professional-looking "WebHelp" format. Other people, including Joe Gelb, use a similar workflow but import the CHM source files generated by DITA OT into RoboHelp, and generate the WebHelp from there. Nadege Quaine has developed a JavaScript search DITA OT plug-in, which creates a neat FTS facility without any "post-processing". Shawn McKenzie wrote another plug-in which creates a DHTML TOC. Perhaps if Shawn's and Nadege's work was brought together, it would be possible to generate a professional "WebHelp" tripane output directly through the DITA OT?
