Description:
The manual provides version-specific pages, but no convenient way to switch between versions without editing the URL of the current page, or starting search over.

How to repeat:
Arrive at any manual page, such as
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/join.html

Attempt to view the version for 4.0, without modifying the URL.

Suggested fix:
Change the links along the top to provide the effect, if not the wording, of "View this page for 3.23-4.1, 5.0, 5.1"

This will be done by our webmasters soon.

This has been fixed now. There are links that point to the appropriate pages (if those exist) in the online manual's search box.
