Summary
This article explains what to do when the “This program cannot display the webpage” error is encountered
Symptoms
A new database CHM document can be opened from a local machine. After it is copied to a network drive, the “This program cannot display the webpage” error is encountered
Resolution
- Use the UrlAllowList entry to enable specific URLs
- Paste the following text in a text editor such as Notepad and save the file by using the *.reg file name extension
Warning: Include only URLs for sites that are trusted
For example, *.chm files are in the \productmanualshelpfiles folder and the web application is located at http:// www.wingtiptoys.com/help. Paste the following text in a text editor such as Notepad and save the file using the *.reg file name extension. This file extension re-enables hosting of the HTML Help ActiveX control
REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftHTMLHelp] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftHTMLHelp1.xHHRestrictions] “UrlAllowList”=”\\productmanuals\helpfiles;http://www.wingtiptoys.com/help/”
Wildcard characters cannot be used in the URL string of any site that is added to the UrlAllowList registry key, for example “UrlAllowList”=http://*.wingtiptoys.com. However, the following URL string can be used “UrlAllowList”=”http://help.wingtiptoys.com”
REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftHTMLHelp]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftHTMLHelp1.xHHRestrictions]
“MaxAllowedZone”=dword:00000003 “UrlAllowList”=””
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftHTMLHelp1.xItssRestrictions]
“MaxAllowedZone”=dword:00000003 “UrlAllowList”=””
