HELP Menu --- <Back Button - Forward Botton>

Mola-mekka chala mekka hola hayla hey!



I WISH......When you click the "back button" in the help menu..... It'll take you to the previous page you VIEWED...... NOT the previous topic in the contents/index list, like it does now.

As it is... it's pretty easy to get lost when clicking links within a topic.

Ditto for the "forward" button.



Long live Jambi.

Couldn't you just use the back button of your web browser?

If only ....... it's greyed out (on Safari).
Do you have the option?

Browser "back" button does it for me, IE7.

EDIT: try Alt-left (my default for "back") or backspace.

Anyone know what the "show in contents" button does next to the ones Stress Co is pointing at? (nevermind, got it)

No Go Stuart.

Well, It works for me in Firefox, BUT........ Can anyone tell me how to set Firefox as the default browser to open help?

It's not in W.E. Web options.

Never mind.... I got it.... (found the file in AC11, help folder, set it to open with FF).

Thanks Laura... I never would have know.

I guess this wish is moot.

and in Safari you just hit the back button twice and it will go to the previous topic, but I am using the Safari 3 Beta, so it might be different.

Your original wish seems blindingly obvious, mate.

I have a Intellipoint Explorer 3.0 mouse and it has the thumb buttons automatically assigned to Forward and Back.

Super fast - I couldn't live without it any more. (Well, I could, but my navigating wouldn't be nearly as quick).

Cheers,

If my default browser were: Navigator, Explorer or Firefox I'd agree with you.... but with Safari...not so much. I wouldn't have checked other browsers if Laura and Stuart had not pointed it out.

Does it work for you with Safari on your MacBook?
