Description ilia 2017-05-25 11:07:51 UTC

Build: IDE for C, C++, and Fortran (Oracle Developer Studio 12.6 [2017/05/25 f47f075123a1])
VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM, 25.111-b14, OpenJDK Runtime Environment, 1.8.0_111-8u111-b14-2ubuntu0.16.04.2-b14
OS: Linux

User Comments:
ilia: Open help with external http link, click the link.

What's wrong:
1) Page opens in the current window, and the page is non-readable (all blocks are on the wrong position, background is blue, etc)
2) When I clicked some link inside this http page I got this exception.
