I have an unlabeled (except for the little magnifying glass icon/glyph) input 
box.
But that is not what is described in the 'Help' manual when I search for
'searching bookmarks'  which is:
==
To search the bookmarks list:

1.  Open the Bookmarks menu and choose Manage Bookmarks.
2.   In your Bookmarks window, open the Tools menu and choose Search
Bookmarks. You see the Find Bookmarks dialog box.
3.  In the drop-down lists, choose options to define your search, and then
click Find. Bookmarks that match your search criteria are displayed. Choose
from the following Search options:

  Choose contains, starts with, or ends with if you know only
part of the word or phrase for which you're searching.
  Choose is if you know exactly what you're searching for.
  Choose is not or doesn't contain to exclude pages.
  Click the fill-in field and type all or part of name or URL
(web address) for the bookmarks or history listings that you want to
find or exclude.
  Select Save query in bookmarks to save this search for
later use.


4.  Double-click a bookmark in the list to go to that page.

 2. doesn't have a 'Search Bookmarks' menu choice,
and of course there isn't a Find Bookmarks dialog box.

Yes, your experience is like mine. The documentation must be describing 
some previous version of SM.

I read all three entries. But as I'm not versed in Bugzilla, I didn't really
make much sense out of 557504.
I am now confused whether SM Help is more correct, and the code is just full of
errors, or the code is more correct the ability to search for a bookmark has 
been
(re)moved to the 'search?' box is the upper right hand corner?
Where is the bookmarks facility and its features et.c. described?

Help is outdated in many ways. Bookmarks is just one area where many 
changes happened where the documentation is yet to be updated.

I guess your best bet there would be SUMO (support.mozilla.org), i.e. 
the Firefox documentation site. To my knowledge, there is no up-to-date 
documentation for SM regarding Bookmarks.

I've had some experience in writing user documents.  Since I much prefer
SeaMonkey's help capability -- embedded in the application -- over
relying on Web-based help, I would like to volunteer to work on this.
How can I get involved?

Ideally you would set up a build environment, as explained here:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Simple_SeaMonkey_build
(Linux should be easiest to set up on). This way you can check whether 
the modifications you make work out correctly.


If this is not manageable for you, an intermediate solution would be to 
only get the SeaMonkey sources (basically hg clone 
http://hg.mozilla.org/comm-central/; after installing mercurial on Linux 
or MozillaBuild on Windows) so that you can provide patches against the 
sources from which Help is built.


The minimum effort, which would however require heavy assistance from 
SeaMonkey developers in order to make it into the final product, would 
be to only contribute texts (like put this here, replace that there).


In any case you'll need a SeaMonkey trunk (nightly) build for testing 
plus a (free) Bugzilla account. Then select the bug(s) you want to work 
on. Query for starters:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=%3Aseamonkey%20%3Ahelp

Anything else, like how to create and maintain patches, get reviews 
etc., or even how to build SM, can be discussed later. For these types 
of discussions, feel free to join the m.d.a.seamonkey newsgroup and ask 
questions as needed.

It also helps if you have written user documentation in (X)HTML, and/or
have written a few (very basic) html web pages.

I've done many basic Web pages, but I've never done user documentation
in HTML or XHTML.  All this seems like a lot of work.  Work is something
I've tried to avoid since I retired 8 years ago.  So I think I'll pass.

If a developer is willing to take help text from me and go through the
hoops, however, I'll still be interested in working on this.  I'm even
willing to format the help text in HTML.

 Things not clearly, so I ask for suggestion.
 
 1. When I try to search bookmarks, search results cover some tags that I
 am browsing. Those tabs should not been filed. Why those tabs showed on
 bookmarks search result? It happened on me with:
 * bookmark manager's search menu
 * sidebar: bookmarks search field
 * sidebar: bookmarks search... button
 Should I reset profile or reinstall application?

I'm afraid I don't get the meaning of your description. (what kind of
tags? what is meant by filed? Since whe are tabs shown in the
bookmark search at all?)
Could you try to rephrase your question please?

In general you can easily test with a new profile by creating secondary
one with the profile manager.


 2. My seamonkey 2.0 is not official 32-bit build. Somebody contributed
 64-bit build for ubuntu and I used that package with my workstation. Is
 any one with official builds got this strange thing?


There is no official 64bit build afaik, only 32.

Even though there has been a 64 bit windows for several years, and with 
the introduction of Snow Leopard for Mac its a true 64 bit OS now. It 
just a matter of the application Developers to develop a version for 64 
bit, and for Intel to catch up on Mac side, and Intel and and the other 
manufacturer for PC now can catch up on PC side with 64 bit. It will 
take a while for developers to get on board with 64bit. Although on the 
Macintosh side iCab has a 64bit version available now.
