Secondary navigation
options are repeated at the
bottom of each page in the form of hypertext links.
A
PAGE INDEX is located near the top and bottom of the longer
pages, for easy reference. The index consists of hypertext
links, which
connect to specific topics within that page. Click on link to make
your selection.
Throughout
this web site you will encounter hypertext
links.
These links appear as blue
underlined text in the normal state, but change to
maroon
when your mouse rolls over.
The background behind the text also changes color as the mouse rolls
over, depending on the page. The background color will change to
either light blue or white. A hypertext link that has already
been visited (clicked) will be purple.
Clicking
on a hypertext link will trigger one of the following events:
- You will
be transported to another section of the same page.
- You will
be transported to another section of this web site.
- You will
open a new browser window, with a new and different web site.
*Tip: The
cursor will turn into a HAND when your mouse is over an "active
link"!
A
third method of navigation is available through the blue
arrows on each page. When your cursor rolls across one
of these arrows, the CURSOR will change to a hand, and the
ARROW turn into a greenish hue.
This is your visual cue that you are rolling over an "active
link" to either: the previous page, the next page, or
the top of the page. Click on an arrow to "move" in the
arrow's direction throughout this web site

*Click
here for demonstration. |
Throughout
this site you will encounter blue diamond-shaped buttons. These
buttons will grow SLIGHTLY larger when your CURSOR rolls over
them. This is your visual CUE that your mouse is directly over
an "active" button. Also, your cursor will turn into
the familiar pointing hand.
Clicking
on one of these buttons will usually result in a new browser
window opening with information related to that section of the
web site.
In
the VIDEO section, however, clicking on these buttons will open
a new browser window AND begin downloading a QuickTime movie.
This feature is repeated in the CREDITS section.

Throughout
this web site, you will encounter many small "thumbnail"
images. If you see your CURSOR change to the familiar HAND while
your mouse rolls over the picture, you have reached an "active
link" to a LARGER version of the thumbnail picture. Simply
CLICK on top of the picture, to open a larger version of the image
in a new browser window. Then click on the X in the upper right
hand corner to close the picture window.
