G'day Rolf,

I don't know if you've made several typos or if there's a problem with your patch. Obviously, as you're awaiting approval for the patch, I can't test it.

You posted four links; these three are invalid:

http://perldoc.perl.org/open.pm.html
http://perldoc.perl.org/open.pm.html#Implementation-Details
http://perldoc.perl.org/B/Deparse.pm.html
[download]

In each case, if you remove the '.pm' part, they will be valid.

I think it would also be a good test to show the open function ([doc://open]) resolving to https://perldoc.perl.org/functions/open.html and the open pragma ([doc://open.pm]) resolving to https://perldoc.perl.org/open.html.

Hi Ken

The ".pm" will be stripped from the URLs after the new patch is approved. (If ever)

Until that 3 of 4 shown links are broken.

[doc://] never knew a ".pm" notation before, this is a new feature.

Fair enough. Thanks for the clarification.

By the way, I think this is a very good idea: both you and anonymonk got a ++ from me.

Update: Changed "you got a ++" to "both you and anonymonk got a ++".

I've submitted a new patch...

Applied.

Thanks, all tests in Re^2: NEW [doc://perldoc#deeplink] works now with all perldocs ( pragmas/modules vs functions conflicts ) run fine.

You can link to it as a demo from the tidings, if you want.

Would you mind writing the Tidings entry? I'll do it if you'd really rather not.

Thank you, sir!

[doc://open.pm#Implementation-Details] --> Implementation Details
FAILs... because apparently anchor names are case sensitive, and the anchor names in use (mostly?) on perldoc.perl.org are AlL-cApS. Try:

[doc://open.pm#IMPLEMENTATION-DETAILS] --> Implementation Details

Should we convert the user-supplied anchor name to uppercase for this purpose? I tend to think so... but only if we believe that that will work 99.9% of the time for perldoc.perl.org.

> FAILs... because apparently anchor names are case sensitive,

Race commenting, I ran and expanded the tests as soon as I saw your approval :)

> Should we convert the user-supplied anchor name to uppercase for this purpose?

No, I don't think so, we can't keep up to date with changes in perldoc.perl.org.

The author of the post should care.
