RE: Help sections, comment types

Wow - Jesper the changes to the commenting facility are great (and so
speedily done)! Being able to see the report while commenting is a great
improvement, however, if you add a comment to a long report, the page
reloads and takes you back to the top so you don't see the actual commenting
area until you scroll down. I think this could be very confusing for kids.
Is it possible to reload the page but show the comment area (maybe using
html anchor tabs)?

> * The comment system has seen several major changes:
> 
>   - The comment system now includes a set of predefined comment types,
>     which gives the general title of the comment. These are available as
>     radio buttons next to the comment button. This idea has been presented
>     by the London team, I'm sure they can present a more detailed

>     comment types, feel free to do so. We will also make sure that these
>     types are included in the various translations.
> 
>   - Comments can now be edited with the WYSIWYG editor. Apart from writing
>     stylish comments, this also opens up for easier linking etc, as the
>     toolbox of the WYSIWYG editor is now available.
> 
>     Note however, that there is no "insert object" field on the comment
>     editing form: this would not be simple to add. If you really want to
>     include some file in your comment, you need to use the "insert link"
>     functionality of the WYSIWYG editor.
> 
>   - The parent is now visible in the comment editing form. This means that
>     if you comment on a report, the report will be visible while you edit
>     your comment. If you, on the other hand, reply to a comment, the
>     comment you're replying to is the one visible.
