Ahah, i think you have to download the 2nd file as advised in quite a few places 
in order to get help-files downloaded onto your machine.  Many people would 
consider the help-files "extra bloat" and struggle to keep their system 
bloat-free.  At least i think that is how it works with most OpenSource 
programs.

Well, all I can say it that it works here.  Browser opens a local file that
looks like the web version of the help.  Using Ubuntu.

This is the first time I've tried to use help in LO, and YUCK!

What is so wrong with having a genuine local help file for the
"LibreOffice Help" button and a separate web help item, even if that's
the default?

I don't dislike a lot of features that are supposed to provide help,
but I absolutely detest a local help button that kicks off a browser
to an online site.

Civilized words fail me.

Cold it be related to Java or the lack thereof?
I have LibreOffice (final version) on an XP system here and on a Windows 7 
64-bit system at the office, and in both cases, all I get is a *local* help 
file. I see no options to look for an online help nor any preference that would 
allow me to switch to online help

I also have the latest Java ((r.23) installed on my computers.
