:Not possible in an activity, apparently.  This is done in the [[Activities/Help|Help]] activity, and the mapping from bundle id to HTML file is also held there. --[[User:Quozl|Quozl]] ([[User talk:Quozl|talk]]) 22:09, 25 May 2015 (EDT)

== No URL entry box, URL spoofing ==
 +
 +
The embedded browser used by this feature does not show an entry box for the URL.  This removes one of the critical security features of web browsers; the ability to verify that the site you are visiting is the right one, and you haven't been redirected to another.

On Sugar 0.105.1 it is possible to escape the configured server; log in, click on search icon, click on help, a search via Google entry box is shown, and the Google search results can be navigated.  There is no back button, so if you reach a page that has no links you must close help and open it again.

Should the browser be restricted to the configured server? --[[User:Quozl|Quozl]] ([[User talk:Quozl|talk]]) 21:31, 26 May 2015 (EDT)

== Right-click menu ==

 +
There's a right-click menu that offers open link in new window or download linked file.  Neither work.  --[[User:Quozl|Quozl]] ([[User talk:Quozl|talk]]) 21:43, 26 May 2015 (EDT)
