- install dir is the directory where you installed the Siebel Web Server Extensions
- install language is the language you selected during installation
During the installation process, your Web server is configured so that
<install dir>\public\<install language>\
becomes the root directory for the URL
http://<hostname>/<Siebel application name>When the Value property of the Url Web Page Item Parameter maps to a URL, that URL is relative to http://<hostname>/<Siebel application name>.
For example, if you are running Siebel eSales on the server siebsrvr, when you request help, the page that will appear is
http://siebsrvr/esales/help/comgeneric.htm. This means that you can put the help files in any directory that can be referenced from
http://<hostname>/<Siebel_application_name>.For example, assume that in <install dir>\public\<install language>\, you create a directory called customizedhelp and you create a start page for your help system, called myonlinehelp.htm.

In this case, you would create a Web Page Item Parameter object definition that points to the URL customizedhelp; the Web Page Item Parameter object properties would be:
