OK, the attached patch:

    "Fl_Help_View.cxx-patch3"

..should do more of the right thing, specifically:

    o Does not clear the screen when an http: link is clicked

    o Does not change the back/forward history when http: link clicked
      (because it opens a separate window, it shouldn't)

    o If the browser can't be opened, and an error msg is displayed,
      one can hit 'Back' to return to the original page.

    o This patch is against svn current (r6642), last patch was not.

I did not see any behavioral problems with FLTK after clicking the
link.. if you notice this, do post OS and behavior details.

I should warn there's something wrong with svn 1.3.x current (r6642):
a clean checkout and build of r6642 under linux (fedora3), 
the test/help program *core dumps* immediately -- ie. with or
without the attached patch applied, it crashes.
So don't let that separate problem confuse your tests for this patch.

I reported the problem with r6642 in fltk.development:
http://fltk.org/newsgroups.php?gfltk.development+v:7047
The r6642 help program doesn't crash on the mac.. problem
might be X specific.
