Did you mean in the std.help.inc rather than in help.php?

This works, although it would then look for a text name using the description rather than the task_id - and I agree with you that this would then be very confusing for the person maintaining the system.

I chose to modify the std.help.inc with two lines:

$help_desc = getLanguageText($help_id);
$title = getLanguageText('sys0099', $help_desc); // "Help text for '$help_desc'"

This way the translation only appears on the text on the screen rather than the help text file itself. I like this approach because then the help screen uses the language translations in exactly the same way as all your other translations.

I'm not comfortable that I've modified std.help.inc though as this change will presumably get overwritten if/when I upgrade?
