In the reference section of the MPL docs, there are a couple of issues. The biggest is that there is some new CSS wackiness that is making cross-links look like regular text until you hover over the links with the mouse. This is a regression from 1.35.
Which download are you seeing this in and on which browser? Can you point to an individual example. The MPL documentation doesn't seem to have changed since 1.35.
I downloaded the .bz2 file (boost_1_36_beta.tar.bz2) from SF.net. It looks to me like the look-and-feel of the docs have changed in 1.36, which is strange because I don't remember a discussion about it. For instance, the index.html at the root no longer resembles the website. And it looks the same to me regardless of whether I use IE7 of Firefox 3.
The root index.html changed in 1.35 when we migrated to the new website. The design and planning for the new site was completed a long time before I was involved so I don't know if it was discussed.
For an example of the hidden links, check out the reference docs for mpl::for_each and play find-the-links. In particular, check out the code block under "Expression Semantics".
This is due to the stylesheet introduced in 1.32. You're probably used to the website, which uses a different stylesheet. It looks like the hidden links were deliberate. Daniel
