What is the All-In-One Online Help System?
The documentation includes the (HTML-based) All-In-One online help, which is the basis for the management system software online help mechanism.
Contents
The All-In-One online help provides access to the complete documentation set and includes the following guides:
Figure 6 All-In-One Online Help System Contents
The table of Contents that you see here makes it convenient to view pages from any guide. You can also click the following tabs:
Index
• This tab displays a fully integrated index of all guides.
Search
• This tab contains a search text box that allows you to enter any word or group of words. The results (across all guides) display here as well. To look for a specific phrase or term, enter double quotes before and after the phrase or term. For example, “egress point”.
Favorites
• This tab allows you to save any page for future reference. If you often look up a particular subject, you can bookmark it here.
For more information on using the All-in-One, see Navigation, page 2.
Note: The All-In-One HTML help system is a Java implementation that uses a Java applet to display the Contents, Index, Search, and Favorites tabs. If your browser does not have Java enabled, then JavaScript will be used and you will not see a Favorites tab.

Installing the TransNav Management System Online HelpInstalling Online Help for Management Servers on Windows Workstations
If both Java and JavaScript are disabled on your browser, the browser will not be able to display the All-In-One help system.
Note: The Java implementation is not supported by Internet Explorer on UNIX or by Netscape 6.0 on any platform. For these browser/platform combinations, the JavaScript implementation is always used. Netscape 6.1 and later are supported, but Netscape 6.0 is not supported on any platform.
About the Java and JavaScript implementations
Turin uses a program by Quadralay WebWorks to produce the All-In-One help system. Each WebWorks Help system incorporates two distinct implementations: one based on Java and the other based on JavaScript. The Java implementation uses a Java applet to display the Contents, Index, Search, and Favorites tabs. The JavaScript implementation provides similar functionality using only JavaScript.
If Java is enabled in a user's browser, the user can successfully view either the Java or JavaScript implementation. If Java is disabled in the user's browser, the user can only run the JavaScript implementation. If both Java and JavaScript are disabled in the user's browser, the browser will not be able to display a WebWorks Help system.
By default, each WebWorks Help system you create includes support for both the Java and JavaScript implementations. When a user launches your Help system, WebWorks Help tries first to run the Java implementation. If Java is disabled in the user’s browser or if the Java applet fails to load for some other reason, the JavaScript implementation is automatically used instead.
Note: The Java implementation is not supported by Internet Explorer on UNIX, Netscape 4.x on Macintosh, or Netscape 6.0 on any platform. For these browser/platform combinations, the JavaScript implementation is always used. Netscape 6.1 and later are supported, but Netscape 6.0 is not supported on any platform.
You can configure a WebWorks Help system to use only the JavaScript implementation. You might do this for any of the following reasons: • Your users are under security or firewall constraints that prohibit Java applets. • You know that your users do not have Java enabled in their browsers. • You are principally supporting browsers that are not compatible with the Java
implementation. • The JavaScript implementation provides better performance for some Help
systems.
