help.start search

Dear R experts, When using R 2.1 under Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 with Mozilla 1.7.6 as browser, help.start() almost works correctly. When I follow one of the search result links everything is fine, but when I go back to follow another link, I find them all inactive. So I have to redo the search. Any suggestions?
There are issues with the Mozilla rendering engines and dynamically generated pages. Check out Marc Schwartz' analysis of the situation in e.g. https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2003-April/030972.html. He also points out that a workaround is to use tabbed browsind so that you don't have to use Back. I still see the same effect with Firefox 1.0.2 and j2re-1.4.2 on FC3. BTW, R 2.0.1 is not R 2.1. The distinction is going to be important about 3.5 weeks from now.
Thanks, Carlisle Thacker
