Re: [docbook-apps] HTMLHelp: links to explicitly named anchors seembroken

[Jens Stavnstrup <js at ddre dot dk>]

Paul,

I assume your id is called sec:notepad. This might be a legal Docbook id, 
but maybee not a legal HTMLHelp id ?

It might work if yo rename the id to e.g. sec-notepad - just a qualified 
guess, bu I can't see any other explanation !

Regards,

Jens
