Java to insert conditional text for file links with \ & /

Unread post by Tom Fiddaman »

Over in this thread http://helpman.it-authoring.com/viewtop ... 22&t=10810 I posted a bit of Java code that parses xml topic files to insert conditional text, so that file links in .chm format use \ (backslash) and others (e.g. webhelp) use / (frontslash), so that links to files in subdirectories of the help system work on all platform/browser combinations. Use with caution, because this was quick & dirty for my particular issue, but hopefully it'll be helpful to others.
