This enhancement has been incorporated in Release 2006a (R2006a). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:
In order to create HTML help for masked blocks, you can place your HTML files and images in one folder and then use the WEB command to display the HTML help. You could get more information about this command by typing the following command at the MATLAB command line.
doc web
For example, if your HTML is saved as 'filename.html', you can place the following command in the Block Help field in the Mask Editor:
web('hello.html', '-helpbrowser')
This should enable you to maintain the HTML code and images in one folder.
