template with a ULINK element (30.40 KB, application/xml)

Description Joachim Noreiko 2006-02-01 17:04:22 UTC 
According to the gdp handbook, "Cross Referencing Other Documentation"[1], the following markup should work:

<ulink type=“help” url=“ghelp://user-guide?gosbasic-2”>text</ulink>

It doesn't.

Drat.
I was making a test case to attach and realized it should be:
<ulink url="ghelp://user-guide?gosbasic-2" type="help" >text</ulink>

Curse smart quotes.
Closing, sorry for the spam.

This is the gnome-app-template with a ULINK added in the introduction.

Reopening. Now I've cleaned up the quotes, I get this message from yelp when clicking on the link:

"The Uniform Resource Identifier ‘ghelp://user-guide’ is invalid or does not point to an actual file."
Comment 4 Shaun McCance 2006-02-01 19:33:42 UTC 
No slashes.  If the stuff after ghelp: starts with a slash, it's assumed to be an absolute path, just like if it were a file: URI.  We should document this stuff better.
