Directions

• Click on the Start! button. You can close this window if you wish, it servers no further purpose.
• Rearrange the controller and display windows as you like. I put the long controller window on the far right side of my screen. Due to a security limit in JavaScript 1.1, the window cannot be made any narrower.
• Click on the right arrow to advance, the left arrow to reverse.
• The "up" arrow causes the "current" slide to be displayed. If you traverse links from within the display window, this brings you back to the current slide.
• If the display window crashes or is accidentally closed, clicking on any of the buttons will bring it back with the appropriate slide displayed.
• The select box lists the current slide, selecting a slide here displays the specified slide and changes the "current slide" number.
