Thanks for the valuable suggestions! But sorry to David, some of the
problem
is real!

I noticed the Firefox option, but it seems like I am stuck with one
help-system
per tab in Firefox instead of one help-system with multiple tabs.
Maybe that
has the same utility and I am just cranky because I have to adapt to a
new
system when I liked the old one. :-)
