Hi A few weeks ago I took the bold step of upgrading from Perl 5.6.1 to Perl 5.8.8 (Build 816). All in all, it went better than I expected. Congratulations to Perl and ActiveState!
However, the generated HTML help has many broken or missing links. perlfunc.html is an excellent example. The table of contents at the top of the page is broken. The href for Perl Functions By Category link is "#perl_functions_by_category" but the actual anchor is named "perl_functions_by_category_x_function_". Many functions listed below Perl Functions By Category are not links. For example, atan2 is not a link. Based on abs and cos, I would expect atan2 to have an anchor named "item_atan2". Instead, the anchor is named "item_atan2_y_2cx_x_3catan2_3e_x_3carctangent_3e_x_3ctan". I went back to the pod, and the perlfunc.pod from 5.8.8 has extra X<indexing stuff> compared to 5.6.1. For example: =head2 Perl Functions by Category X<function> =item atan2 Y,X X<atan2> X<arctangent> X<tan> X<tangent> Does anybody know what is wrong here? And when it will be fixed?
