Bug appears if I installed NetBeans with C/C++ pack only. If I installed NetBeans with C/C++ pack + Java SE pack, then
help works correctly.

Folder nodes (the books) in the help TOC set have no help info attached. Only individual topics (page nodes)
Comment 4 dnikitin 2008-03-27 15:16:24 UTC 
agree, but Getting Started looks like page node in Help Contents (see screen shot)

either do that Getting Started looks like book node or add a help article for Getting Started

Comment 6 dnikitin 2008-03-31 16:27:28 UTC 
now (build 200803302302)
 Getting Started node looks like 'book node' and have subnode 'C and C++ Application'
=> all seems correctly. 

I will close this issue as works for me
