This is going to be in commercial right? I see it in 2003-04-17-03.

So what exactly do we need here: A new help page or a button somewhere?

Daniel,
So are we using URL above as a help file or are we loading that URL into the
browser window? You seem to understand this vague bug report better than I do.

The Help file need something on Domain Name guessing:

e.g.

*Internet Keywords*:
    * *Enable Internet Keywords*: Select this to enable fast
      access to services such as stock quotes, search, and
      other information from the Location bar.
    * More Information: Click this to learn more about using
      Internet Keywords.
*Location Bar Autocomplete*:
    * blah
*Domain Guessing*:
    * Automatically add "www." and ".com" to the location if
      a web page isn't found: Select this to enable browser
      to search for the .com address if the URL in the Loation
      Bar fails.
    * More Information: Click this to learn more about domaing
      guessing.

and the smart browsing pref panel probably needs a [More Information] button.

If there is anything I can do to get this fixed for 1.7a or 1.7b, please add me
to the cc and let me know.

See bug 156792 about having "more information"-buttons in the prefs panels. I
think timeless is right.

I'm marking this FIXED. The patch in bug 228670 added a link to
http://www.mozilla.org/docs/end-user/domain-guessing.html and description of the
pref in cs_nav_prefs_navigator.xhtml.

However, no "More information"-button was added to the prefwindow. So, if anyone
really want another button - reopen...

Don't worry about the button.
