annotate doc/announcement.txt @ 635:3d61b5d2243e

Added popup help for classes using the classhelp html template function. - add <display call="classhelp('priority', 'id,name,description')"> to an item page, and it generates a link to a popup window which displays the id, name and description for the priority class. The description field won't exist in most installations, but it will be added to the default templates.
