Create HTML Help Files
You can create HTML help files in any text editor or web publishing software. To create
help files in MATLAB, use either of these two methods:- Create a live script (*.mlx) and export it to HTML. For more information, see “Share
Live Scripts and Functions” on page 19-69. - Create a script (*.m), and publish it to HTML. For more information, see “Publish and
Share MATLAB Code” on page 23-2.
Store all your HTML help files in one folder, such as an html subfolder in your toolbox
folder. This folder must be:- On the MATLAB search path
- Outside the matlabroot folder
- Outside any installed hardware support package help folder
Documentation sets often contain:- A roadmap page (that is, an initial landing page for the documentation)
- Examples and topics that explain how to use the toolbox
- Function or block reference pages
