I've tried that and it doesn't make
a difference.  However, it seems that moving to Eclipse 3.0 does.
 Previously we were using Eclipse 2.1.2/3

Thanks for your input

Can you reproduce the problem if you change your Internet
Explorer 
settings for the following value?

Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced -> Reuse windows for launching
shortcuts

By the way, this mailing list is not the appropriate forum for asking 
general troubleshooting questions; you should use the eclipse.platform
newsgroup instead.

[platform-help-dev] Multiple Eclipse Help windows opening for same 
application







On certain systems every invocation of Eclipse Help brings up a new 
browser window, even if called from the same button with no changes to
the 
application in which the person is working.  The Help browser windows
on 
these systems also include all the toolbars and the explorer bar of 
Internet Explorer.  This is different than my understanding of how
Eclipse 
Help should come up: in the same, specific 'help' window each invocation.
This is not reproducible on every system and different Eclipse or JDK 
versions don't affect how many Help windows are launched.  Are there
any 
known quirks within Eclipse or elsewhere that might induce multiple 
browser window launches?   

Thanks, 
Elizabeth
