Syntax Description Notes
<PARAM name="Flags" value="1"> Used with the ALink or KLink commands to specify that when a single target topic is found, the topic should appear in the window type specified in the Command parameter. If this parameter is empty (value=" "), clicking the ALink or KLink navigates directly to the target topic when a single topic is found.
<PARAM name="Flags" value=",,1"> Used with the ALink or KLink commands to specify that when a target topic cannot be found, the ALink or KLink button (or text) should be unavailable. If this parameter is empty (value=" "), clicking the ALink or KLink opens a Topic Not Found dialog box when the topic cannot be located.
<PARAM name="Flags" value="numeric value of selected window styles"> Used with the Contents command to store the numeric value of the selected window style attributes. The window style hexadecimal numeric values are not currently mapped. We recommend that you use the HTML Help ActiveX Control Wizard to select window styles. The wizard automatically inserts the appropriate parameter values in the format 0xn.
