That didn’t sound like it would help in this situation, but I tried it anyway and discovered that the help text is part of the text of the menu item. The new arrangement might be the site developer’s decision and not Apples. Everyone can get to the web site but these menus don’t occur unless one is logged in. At least now I know I can move things along a little faster by navigating into the item and skipping the help text. Maybe they changed something around the same time I upgraded since I have not heard anyone else complaining of similar issues. I should take it up with the sight owner.
