In the Eclipse Help System documentation, the HTML pages do not have normal Next and Previous links. This makes it inconvenient to read through a series of sequential pages. Even if the last page in a group of sequential pages can't or can't easily have a Next link to the first page in the next section, most pages in the group can.
Closing. Unless we have a volunteer to add these links, it won't be happening. The tree view on the left hand side provides adequate navigation.
I would agree with you, but we have done usability testing and end users do not find the tree to be adequate. Every single user failed to navigate pages, most tried the next/prev buttons. It could be that the Eclipse project has a smarter class of users, but when using the online help in a RCP context we are less lucky.
Try the following: 1. Open up Welcome 2. Select Over view 3. Select Java development Try and explain why the "Basic tutorial" consists of one page.
Reopening.
