Bomb Sun with messages requesting fixing their HTML browser.

In a meantime only thing you can do, is to tweak stylesheets and
documents to go over this. Quotes come to result HTML probably from
stylesheet which renders <quote>. You can look at file common/en.xml and
see where are quotes used (look for &#8220; and &#8221;). Then you must
create your customization file and in it change localization text
containing quotes in the way that they use just normal poor quotes (or
any other character acceptable by JavaHelp).

Changing localization text in customization files were discussed several
times in a near past. You can search archives.

In a future stylesheet will be able to contain localizations customized
for different output formats (print, html, slides, htmlhelp, javahelp,
...). You problem then will be solved in a general way, althoug full
Unicode support in JavaHelp is only true solution IMHO.
