114.0. "Problem with <ONLINE_POPUP>" by DRRUTH::PATRICK (Paul Patrick - CSE/SD-MKO) Wed Apr 12 1989 15:18

I have been developing a document using the 20-Mar-89 baselevel and found that
the first occurance of the <ONLINE_POPUP> does not seem to be seen.  If I 
duplicate the table in another <ONLINE_POPUP>, it now appears.

Is there something special I should be looking for?

    Egads! Really? I'll look into this...

    The problem is that I override hotspots for symbols defined using
    the <DEFINE_SYMBOL> tag (also the <DEFINE_BOOK_NAME> tag). But I 
    neglected to reset hotspots afterward and the first true hotspot
    gets trounced as well. Things get reset after that (non)hotspot so
    all the others are OK. 
    
    This manual (and Nina's in Note 115) uses a reference to such a symbol
    in the title of the document. (<ONLINE_POPUP>s are sort of a special
    case of <REFERENCE> so the results were the same in both cases.)
    
    This will be fixed in the next baselevel of the online tools, including
    the T1.2 baselevel promised for early this week. 
    
    Sorry for the inconvenience,
    
    Mary
