hello all,
i am leading the Mozilla Hebrew L10n project. while translating some of
the online help files (accesible from the Mozilla Help menu), i found
numerous documentation errors, some of them are for outdated interface
features, and some are errors that breake the help system (brokem links).
the amount of errors makes me think there is no one person that knows
everything that's going on in the help system. i don't know how this
part of Mozilla is run, but what you should do is assign each file to a
person that will be in charge of it and make sure it's updated.
here are the errors. they are taken from Mozilla 1.0.1, so see if some
of them were not corrected already.
all of these files are in the language pack, that can be found in
<install folder>/chrome/en-US.jar
