Description:
------------
The 19th July version of the English chm documentation is displaying "?????" for all of the navigation links. I've checked, and the "?????" is actually in the source.
Other information is also being displayed as "???"
Look at the Table of Contents and Preface topics for a quick example.

Although the links are fixed in the new release, this bug still persists. The files have bogus '???' instead of normal text in the 'back'/'next' links. I think this info is gathered from the localized docbook files, but I'm not sure what is causing the problem..

The current version (Aug 17 23:58:13 2005) still has this problem.  It seems that the problem occured since the July 19 version and has not been fixed.

Problem still exists in 8 Sep release...

The problem exists under Windows 2000 SP4 as well.

Changed the OS field as the problem is not actually OS-specific .
Would be nice to get this fixed, as the HtmlHelp files are not really usable because of this bug.

The problem still exists in the 23 November 2005 version... Has it been assigned to anyone?!?

No comments since the Nov 26/05. Some kind of response would be greatly appreciated. There (seemingly) still hasn't been any attempt at fixing this problem, and it is rather annoying.
 [2006-01-10 14:08 UTC] ektest at hotmail dot com
2006 are here! Still nothing? A half-year global doc bug!..
 [2006-02-11 03:11 UTC] izaak at victoria dot tc dot ca
yeah, I've been annoyed by this bug for about half a year as well. It would be really nice to see fixed - perhaps it's harder than we think?
 [2006-02-27 23:41 UTC] php-manual-bug at t43 dot mine dot nu
The german version of nov23, 2005 is correct....
 [2006-03-05 19:45 UTC] php-bugs at t43 dot mine dot nu
Another annoying bug, a whole section is missing in the CHM table of contents, english and german. It simply does not show up in the left TOC pane of the CHM. It should be:

II. Installation und Konfiguration 
3. General Installation Considerations
...
9. Runtime configuration.

I open a new bug, as I did not find it already documented, but just in case it is here too. I had a very hard time figuring this out.

The May 31 06 release has the same problem.
 [2006-08-10 15:44 UTC] azsd at qq dot com

Fixed now, but it's going to take up to two days to appear online.
