In some helpfile I clicked on "go to xyz homepage".
It opened IE and went there.
(how do I set it to Opera? which IS the default browser otherwise)
I clicked on send comment link ("mailto:xyz@zyy.com")
It opened... Opera 7.23
!
What do I change to get it to use the current Opera?
Thanks

It depends a bit on your system, and on the particular help file system
the application uses. If you set Opera as the default for the 'http'
protocol and 'url' and 'html' shortcuts, everything is OK inside Opera.
Some applications might directory call 'iexplore' instead of using the
system default browser.

The 'mailto' protocol. See 'Tools > Preferences > Default browser'.
