19.14 Deploying OmniHelp

When users launch an OmniHelp system, what happens depends on which browser they are using, and how they tell the browser to load OmniHelp. Most browsers will refuse to open HTML files on a non-local drive that are called using the file protocol. If the files are not on a local drive, they must be served by an HTTP server and called using the http protocol.
