Description Ken Ganong 2005-07-28 19:06:04 UTC
Description of problem:
Some of our help balloon links seem to be incorrect.  I've seen two in the last
couple days, User List, and User Details pages. 

We should verify the validaty of help balloon links before shipping our product.

There are alot of these still in pxts, help-url=""
They aren't broken links, but I also wouldn't call them helpful.

Test Plan:
Click lots of help balloon links which appear near the header of many of our
pages.  Verify that you do not get a 404 and that the information presented is
relevant to the page you were on.  Most of the problems were seen on users
pages, errata management pages, and scheduled action pages.

Important note:  There seems to be a bug with firefox so that some of the
anchors (the stuff after the #) don't work correctly on the first visitation of
a page.  Hitting the refresh button should bring you to the correct place on the
page.  If it doesn't, this bug fails.  If it does, its firefox's fault.

will qa this.

Comment 7 Max Spevack 2005-08-07 19:16:40 UTC
I clicked a decent number of help balloons, and didn't get any 404 errors. 
Moving to PROD_READY, if others are found, they can be opened.
