Eclipse Help System Bug? [message #325612]

I am finding javascript errors when viewing a Javadoc inside the Eclipse
Help System using Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.13 and Firefox 2.0.0.12.
You can re-produce this by viewing the Eclipse Help System at:

http://help.eclipse.org/help33/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse. emf.doc/references/javadoc/index.html.

http://help.eclipse.org/help33/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse. jst.jsf.doc.dev/html/api_reference/index.html.
http://help.eclipse.org/help33/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse. uml2.doc/references/javadoc/index.html.

In IE, you should see a small javascript error in the bottom-left
corner. In Firefox, using Firebug
(https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1843) the error shows up
as:

top.loadFrames is not a function
http://<url>/index.html
Line 1

It seems there may be a workaround as I do not see any of the issues
when viewing IBM Javadocs in the Eclipse Help System:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rtnlhelp/v6r0m0/ind ex.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.emf.ecore.sdo.doc/references/javad oc/index.html.

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rtnlhelp/v6r0m0/ind ex.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.emf.ecore.sdo.doc/references/javad oc/index.html.

I did a quick search of Open items in the Eclipse bug system and did not
find anything related to this issue and consequently wanted to see if
anyone was aware of this error and if there were any known workarounds.

Thanks in advance

Dan,

I tried installing it but I can't really interpret the errors. Perhaps
it's best to open a bugzilla against the EMF releng component and see
what Nick can figure out. He does the build for UML2 as well, but the
WTP folks might need to look at this issue as well...
