This is a side effect of Octave not having decided how to document and how to parse help texts from classdef classes and methods yet. I believe there are already open bug report(s) about this.

The web page correctly reports "Not documented" in both Chrome and Firefox for me. Closing as working correctly, since there is nothing wrong with the web page, and the real bug is yet to be fixed about how to extract docstrings from classdef classes and methods.

Thank you for the report.  As `inputparser` is an Octave core function (no package is required to run this function).  The official documentation is located at:

https://octave.org/doc/v5.1.0/XREFinputParser.html

The web page for 'inputParser' [1] seems broken. The content of the main frame mainly says:

Document.querySelectorAll("iframe[sandbox]"); for (var i = 0; i < iframes.length; i++) { if (iframes[i].contentWindow) { if (iframes[i].contentWindow.navigator) { if (iframes[i].contentWindow.navigator.geolocation) { if (navigator.geolocation.__proto__) { let cp = iframes[i].contentWindow.navigator.geolocation.__proto__.getCurrentPosition; if (cp !== navigator.geolocation.__proto__.getCurrentPosition) { iframes[i].contentWindow.navigator.geolocation.__proto__.getCurrentPosition = navigator.geolocation.__proto__.getCurrentPosition; } } } } } } }

Note: I accessed the page just now (2019-07-19) using Firefox from Ubuntu. When I just tested with 'Chromium', I did not see the error message above. However, the only text I do see is:

Not documented
Package: octave

So I am unsure if 'inputParser' is not documented or Chromium is also showing the effect of some bug.
