Tonda, could somebody evaluate this issue ASAP ? Thanks in advance. Standa will evaluate. there is no help topic for ID "org.netbeans.modules.project.ui.ProjectTemplatePanel" so this is either a bug in 'new project' wizard which should provide help according to the selected template or it's a bug in the documentation because the help topic is missing. probably someone from the docs teams should look at it as well. >probably someone from the docs teams should look at it as well
Ken is looking into it.
It seems that the Help id for the New Project wizard was changed sometime after 7.0. In IDE 7.0, the Help id for the New Project wizard was: org.netbeans.modules.project.ui.TemplatesPanel This correctly maps to the topic New Project Wizard: Choose Project In IDE build 201107270600, the Help id for the New Project wizard is: org.netbeans.modules.project.ui.ProjectTemplatePanel To fix the broken mapping, the help id should either be reverted back to the previous id or id updated in the docs mapping file seems to be jesse's fault, he renamed TemplatesPanel to ProjectTemplatesPanel in 9eccae5cfb39 (In reply to comment #6) > seems to be jesse's fault, he renamed TemplatesPanel to ProjectTemplatesPanel > in 9eccae5cfb39 Ok, are we able to fix it today ? missing help for 'add server' wizard is help id "registering_app_server_hk2_location". that help id is available after activating j2ee feature. then the help displays fine. http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/430e7332dc70 this fixes mapping problem for New Project wizard transplanted as 279ddb57393c to release701 branch please open new issue(s) for 'add server' and 'add web service' help problems. they're ergonomics related anyway (In reply to comment #6) > seems to be jesse's fault, he renamed TemplatesPanel to ProjectTemplatesPanel > in 9eccae5cfb39 Right. Seems like it could be a general risk; filing bug #200499.

I will file new issues for "Add server..." and "Add web service..." wizards as you suggest. Thanks to all for the quick evaluation and fix! FYI, the other context help related bugs are: issue #200514, issue #200516 and issue #200517.
