hi,

Mikkus would like a fwd and back button on the pages (i agree - it would
be excellento!)


if there is a javasvript whiz out there...we can implement this easy if
someone can write a little javascript to navigate a list:

for example the current if you look at the kino manual :
http://en.flossmanuals.net/kino


The index is the same on each page and html looks like this:

<ul>
<li class="title">KINO</li>
<li class="heading">INTRODUCTION</li>
<li><a href="/Kino/Introduction">INTRODUCTION</a></li>
<li class="heading">USING KINO</li>
<li><a href="/Kino/CapturingVideo">CAPTURING VIDEO</a></li>
<li><a href="/Kino/EditingClips">EDITING CLIPS</a></li>
<li><a href="/Kino/AddingTitlesAndCredits">ADDING TITLES</a></li>
<li><a href="/Kino/TransitionsAndEffects">TRANSITIONS AND EFFECTS</a>
</li><li><a href="/Kino/AudioFilters">AUDIO FILTERS</a></li>
<li><a href="/Kino/ExportingVideo">EXPORTING VIDEO</a></li>
<li class="heading">APPENDIX</li>
<li><a href="/Kino/Help">ADDITIONAL HELP</a></li>
<li><a href="/Kino/Credits">CREDITS</a></li>
</ul>

If know the current page (I can create a variable on the page for this)
then can we navigate this by identifying the location of the next list
element and making this the value of the location for a next button?

Any takers?

adam
