[Rd] Wrong links in help help files? (PR#14155)

[henrik.parn at bio.ntnu.no]

Dear R developers,


?help.search

...opens a tab in my browser (Firefox 3.5.6, Win XP):

http://127.0.0.1:31642/library/utils/html/help.search.html

When I click on the link for "?", 
(http://127.0.0.1:31642/library/utils/help/?)
in the last line of "Details", I get an error message:

"Server error: invalid response from R".


Similarly,

The link to "??" (http://127.0.0.1:31642/library/utils/help/??) found 
under http://127.0.0.1:31642/library/utils/html/help.html "See also" 
gives same error message.


On the other hand, in the help text for "help" 
(http://127.0.0.1:31642/library/utils/html/help.html) the link to "?", 
found under "See also", is 
http://127.0.0.1:31642/library/utils/html/Question.html, which seems to 
be the correct link.


I did not manage to find anything on this topic in recent bug reports on 
"Documentation" and "Documentation fixed".


Best regards,


Henrik Pärn
