See reload() and BrowserReloadWithFlags(); at a cursory glance neither is used any more since the help viewer UI changes beyond a hidden keyboard shortcut that should probably be removed. Remote help pages don't quite work now anyway, so unless that gets fixed there's never even a reason to reload the page.

Comment on attachment 213180 [details] [diff] [review] just nuke it Assuming this is truly useless UI, and there's no need to ever reload a page, I have no problem with removing it.

Comment on attachment 213180 [details] [diff] [review] just nuke it There's indeed no need to reload chrome pages. We also got rid of the dialog screenshots, which were loaded remotely, before Firefox 1.5. The "Using Mozilla Firefox" document contains images of the location bar and search bar etc., but probably nobody would even notice if they were missing.
