help system
I haven't had chance to do a deep investigation of the help system yet, but
I have a few futher questions:
1) is the main purpose of the content management records to link the current
screen to the appropriate help content?
2) could the help system be replaced with the eclipse help system? the
eclipse help system has some nice additional functionality such as search?
Many thanks,
Chris

Hi Erwan, why build a help system when the eclipse help system has more
features and is very mature - see it in action here:

Hi Chris,
-->
http://localhost:8080/cmssite/cms/APACHE_OFBIZ_HTML#helpInternationalization
for searching in the help system, we could use what is built-in OFBiz at
the moment. Lucene is broken, but we should upgrade it and make it work
again. Scott was telling me he had something waiting to be committed.
Then, a simple search interface would have to be added so we could
search into the help system.
HTH,
