HEAD
- add missing \label
- add errormessage generation to lonhelp.pm in case it does not find a label for
the reference
- This should fix #3016, and make it easier to find these errors in the fututre

2:
3: The environment is accessible through the global hash named \%ENV.
4: In addition to the standard variables placed in the environment by
5: the Apache server, LON-CAPA places a lot of information in the \%ENV.
6: You can see this information by going to \texttt{/adm/test}; the top
7: part of that screen will show your current \%ENV. (You may need to
8: modify \texttt{/home/httpd/lonTabs/htpasswd} before you can view that
9: handler and change the password for \texttt{lonadm}.)
10:
11: Many of the environment variables are primarily useful to the authentication
12: and permission routines (such as \texttt{Apache::lonnet::allowed}),
13: and are very rarely directly manipulated.
14:
15: Generally, the \%ENV is informally organized into {}``namespaces'',
16: such as {}``browser'' (containing browser information), {}``course''
17: (containing course-specific information), etc. For the following table,
18: the full name of the variable is the name shown on the left, prepended
19: by the section it is in. For instance, the first \%ENV member shown
20: below is \$ENV\{'browser.mathml'\}. Only generally useful portions
21: of the \%ENV are covered here.
