I can reproduce on RedHat 9.0.
Mozilla on Windows seem to work fine.

When browser is set to external browser in help preferences, upon choosing 
delete all bookmarks action, a confirmation dialog is displayed and bookmarks 
are deleted.

It is only in the embedded browser with mozilla that it does not work.  It 
turns out that javascript:confirm() does not work in the mozilla browser 
widget.  This is strange as javascript:alert() works fine.
This used to work in 3.0M8.  Now, the embedded browser neither displays 
confirmation window itself nor it calls OpenWindowListener.

Christophe, plese let me know if this can be fixed by 3.0.
Thanks.

User confirmation to delete all bookmarks is not terribly important.
For M9 I have disabled the javascript confirm call.  We can enable it later 
pending fix to this bug makes it into 3.0, or even change help code to use 
window.open and create confirmation HTML page for it.
