Hi, could be a browser issue. What browser are you using? I see this behavior on Firefox 3.0.1 but not Microsoft IE 7.0(.5730.11).
Looking at the source code for the generate search (of 'reshape') you get the relative URL: ../../../library/R.utils/html/wrap.array.html for both browsers. The difference is that the "current URL" is different for the two: Firefox: file:///C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-2.7.1pat/doc/html/index.html MSIE: C:\Program Files\R\R-2.7.1pat\doc\html\search\SearchEngine.html Applying the relative URL to the two you get incorrect URL for Firefox: Firefox: file:///C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-2.7.1pat/doc/html/../../../library/R.utils/html/wrap.array.html == file:///C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-2.7.1pat/../library/R.utils/html/wrap.array.html == file:///C:/PROGRA~1/R/library/R.utils/html/wrap.array.html MSIE: C:\Program Files\R\R-2.7.1pat\doc\html\search\../../../library/R.utils/html/wrap.array.html == C:\Program Files\R\R-2.7.1pat\doc\/../library/R.utils/html/wrap.array.html == C:\Program Files\R\R-2.7.1pat\library/R.utils/html/wrap.array.html So, it seems that the "current URL" for the search result is incorrect for Firefox, i.e. a missing search/ directory.
