Open an external link in javaHelp

Hi

I using XMLmind editor for creating the xml file  and
generating outputs 
for Javahelp  and print.  My specific requirement is to
include a link 
specially in case of Javahelp that will help me open an
external URL say 
http://www.yahoo.com and
it opens the URL in the default browser window 
line Internet Explorer of Netscape navigator and does not
opens the link in 
the same Java Help window.
I have tried to use the Olink, link , and ulink.   I was
able to open the 
site using Olink but I want the site to be opened in
separate   explorer 
wondow.
Is it possible to include such a link and if yes what are
the customization 
required.  please give me some refrence pointers

Thanks in advance.

This is not really a DocBook question. JavaHelp (as
delivered from Sun)
requires additional programming to make external web pages
open in the
default browser. You need to write a "lightweight
component"; there is some
information about this in the JavaHelp User's Guide. 

You might be interested in JDIC, which makes it possible to
embed an
external browser in JavaHelp. See
http://weblogs.java.net/blog/brinkle
y/archive/2004/11/javahelp_v20_02_1.html
.

Searching the archives of the JAVAHELP-INTEREST list at
http://archives.java
.sun.com/cgi-bin/wa?S1=javahelp-interest&D=0&T=1&
;H=0&O=D
() could also be helpful.
