Description
Using Version 3 'H' release.

In the screen object wizard I selected a 'type' of attention 
and clicked the green question mark to the right to find out 
more.  I have 'display notification about every script 
error' turned on in my browser options and received the 
following error:

Line: 817
Char: 1
Error: Obj Expected
Code: 0
URL: http://localhost:83/doc/devtool/mapedit2.html

I have a bmp of screen capture if you're interested.

Sorry, the help for this function missed the release and 
the question mark is trying to load a non-existant file--

Attention Fields are designed to handle error-displays or 
other messages.  They are important to define for any 
screen that will not "advance" to the next screen in a 
sequence, whenever text is displayed in the attention area 
on the screen.

The attributes for the Attention field enable a variety of 
actions to be performed in an HTML environment, including a 
Pop-up (Alert), as well as positioning error text under a 
specific, named field, or the field that has focus.

As a general rule, you should define an Attention field 
wherever a message displays on the screen that prevents 
navigation to the next screen in a sequence.
