VS2005: F1 online help does not work within 'aspx.cs' files

Hi,

ENV: VS2005 Team Ed for Developers, No local help, using 'online'.

I highlight a well-known symbol in aspx code-behind (e.g. 'public') and hit
F1 to get some help on it. The help viewer loads and faffs around before
telling me about HTML 'LINK Attributes' at the following location:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/properties/link_1.asp

No matter the symbol or page I try, it always goes to the same help
location. Works fine within a standard C# class file and from the HTML
'Source' view of the same page (e.g, hit F1 on a 'table' element)

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Stuart

Hi Gary,

I restarted the IDE and F1 took me to this different page:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ex0hkwbx.aspx

I restarted again and it now works fine...weird :)

Cheers,
Stu

Hi Stu,

ference/properties/link_1.asp

I have performed some tests on my side, it seems alright in my local
environment. My VSTS 2005 could invoke its the MSDN to display the
corresponding online MSDN documentaion topic with the selected syntax
elemant of an aspx.cs file.

So in order to isolated this problem, we may need more detailed information
about it:

1. Does this problem happen to your local help?

2. Does this problem occurs to any other machines which installed the same
VSTD 2005 version as the curren one?


Thanks!
