--- Comment #1 from markk@clara.co.uk 2010-06-12 11:56:53 --- In Wine 1.2rc3, one aspect of this bug has been fixed. Popups no longer disappear immediately. However, they are still the wrong size, and there are some other issues.
Some popups have scrollbars when none are needed because all the text fits into the popup window. If you click one of the scrollbars they vanish. E.g. open ONLCFG.HLP, click "How do I?" then "Letting your Intuit software..." then the dial type popup link. Click one of the popup's scroll bars.
On clicking a link in a popup, sometimes another popup appears with the destination page. It is possible to get several "nested" popups showing at once, with no way to close them. The correct behaviour should be that the popup closes and the main window shows the destination.
To demonstrate, open ONLCFG.HLP. Click "How do I?" and "Letting your Intuit software...". Click "Tell me more". In the popup which opens, click any link. A second popup opens over the first one. It it possible to continue that process, ending up with many nested popups. The popups cannot be closed without exiting winhlp32.
On playing around with nesting popups and then clicking in the main window, I was able to crash winhlp32. I don't have an exact list of steps to accomplish that, though it is fairly easy to do. I will attach the console output.
