[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1588?page=comments#action_12434845 ] Andrew McIntyre commented on DERBY-1588: ----------------------------------------
Could we link to the HTML instead of the PDFs, and make a separate link to the PDF if you would like to keep the PDF link? Users might not have a PDF browser, but they'll definitely have a web browser if they are looking at an HTML file already. Also, couldn't we just link to the local copy of the documentation using relative URLs inside the -bin distribution? That solves the dev bit, as well as making it more useful for someone without an internet connection. e.g. the link for Getting Started would become: href="../../docs/html/getstart/index.html" > Link "Getting Started...." and "Apache Derby Server ...." in demo.html needs > to be linked to actual documents instead of manuals page > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-1588 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1588 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Demos/Scripts > Affects Versions: 10.2.1.0 > Reporter: Ramandeep Kaur > Assigned To: Laura Stewart > Priority: Minor > Attachments: demo.html, derby1588.diff > > > The links "Getting Started with Apache Derby" and "Apache Derby Server and > Administration Guide" in file > https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/db/derby/code/trunk/java/demo/demo.html > needs to be linked to actual documents as following: > Getting Started with Apache Derby to > "http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/dev/getstart/getstartderby.pdf"; > Apache Derby Server and Administration Guide to > "http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/dev/adminguide/derbyadmin.pdf"; > Right now the links are linked to > "http://db.apache.org/derby/manuals/index.html"; > Also, once the dev release is committed (for example committed to 10.2), the > links needs to be changed so that "dev" is replaced with actual release > number. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
