The SearchEngine, accessible through generated documentation by help.start()
like:

file:/tmp/Rtmp2085/.R/doc/html/search/SearchEngine.html

or on WWW:

http://www.stat.ucl.ac.be/ISdidactique/Rhelp/doc/html/search/SearchEngine.html

works only in Netscape 4.7x. It fails e.g. with Mozilla 1.3, 1.6 and IE 6.0.

I solved the problem by installing Netscape 4.76 and invoking help by 

    > help.start(browser="netscape4")

where netscape4 is the executable of Netscape 4.76, included in $PATH.
