220413 - Help Index has no entry for "plug-in", "helper application", or "java"

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Help Documentation, defect)

Description

[Daniel Wang]

I can't find any entry for "plug-in" or "helper application" in Help Index. not
sure if this is a regression from bug 220169.

Adds the entries to the index. They are both linked to the same file and anchor
because search-db.rdf links them to the same spot. There's also no other
appropraite anchor to use that would link directly there.

Does this cover everything, Daniel?

well, actually Neil said he couldn't review RDF. Daniel, do you know of an
appropriate reviewer?

Well, I can't do + review, but I think I can do - review ;-)

helper applications should have ID = "helper_applications" instead of
"home_page". The link should go to #Navigator:helper_applicationsIDX instead of
#file_types:openingIDX

for plug-ins, you have and id and name wrong ("POP"), and it should link to
#Navigator:plug-insIDX

Also, I just found out that Java is not in the Index either.

in nav_help.html, there needs to be one <a name="Navigator:javaIDX"></a> entry,

<a name="Navigator:plug-insIDX"></a>, <a name="pluginsSDX"></a>, and <a
name="plug-insSDX"></a>  should be moved to 1 line above <h3>Plug-ins</h3>

<a name="Navigator:helper_applicationsIDX"></a> and <a
name="helper_applicationsSDX"></a> need to be moved to 1 line above <h3>Helper
Applications</h3>

and <a name="Download_ManagerSDX"></a> and <a name="Download_ManagerIDX"></a>
need to be moved further down to where <a name="using_Download_ManagerSDX"></a>
is

Daniel: Should we use the "Helper Applications" page or the Java entry in the
glossary to fix this bug?

Comment 6

[R.J. Keller]

OK. I'm going to use the Helper Applications page for the Java link.

I found it strange that these (and others) all (already) link to Managing
Different File Types.
