Description dbell 2011-10-22 08:18:55 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 201110200600 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.26 ]

Consider the following JavaDoc:
    
    /**
     * <p>W3C XML Schema Namespace URI.</p>
     * 
     * <p>Defined to be "<code>http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema</code>".
     * 
     * @see <a href=
     *  "http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#Instance_Document_Constructions">
     *  XML Schema Part 1:
     *  Structures, 2.6 Schema-Related Markup in Documents Being Validated</a>
     */
    public static final String W3C_XML_SCHEMA_NS_URI =
"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";

the asterisk ("*") before the link URL is highlighted as HTML. It should be
highlighted the same colour as the rest of the javadoc asterisks.
