The extension may or may not come in handy; there's an extension posted on [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=253334 bug 253334] which I've been using to try and get Help working in Thunderbird.  With what I have now, everything theoretically looks okay on the surface.  The only problem is the Help menu isn't properly overlaid, which is a rather huge problem.  Unfortunately, facilities to debug this are mostly non-existent, so I don't actually know what's wrong.  However, I'll keep this in mind as I work on the bug.--[[User:Waldo|Waldo]] 21:46, 27 Jan 2005 (PST)

==== help extention working on Windows ====
I finally figured out the problem. On Windows the help system doesn't have the latin1 and HTMLspecial (i.e. mdash) character entities available. Don't know why Windows doesn't and Mac and Linux versions do. I downloaded the dtd files and referenced them in the xhtml files and help content is now visible. --[[User:Roan|Roan]] 17:34, 31 Jan 2005 (PST)
