I am using Sandcastle with the Sandcastle Help File Builder on a very large project. This works really fine, but I wanted to upload the generated documentation to my project page, and the documentation generated by Sandcastle contains ASP.NET code while I only own a Linux-based webserver.

Is it possible to generate pure HTML documentation without ASP.NET which can be displayed on the web with sandcastle?

If not, would you kindly advise me to another documentation tool which is capable of generating more flexible HTML output?

EDIT

To answer it myself after some research:

Sandcastle can't, but finally, I decided to use nDoc3, which generates pure HTML-Documentation and has virtually all the features sandcastle has.

Not a Sandcastle solution, but you can try our VSdocman. It can generate pure HTML+javascript documetation with TOC, index and search. Everything works even locally on your PC. You can see a small example here. I don't know how large your project is but we have tested HTML output with several thousands pages and it worked fine.

Thanks for your effort. VSdocman looks very good, but sadly, I would need documentation software for a freeware project, and there is virtually no budget.
