If you click on anythink in the left tree window in JavaHelp, The cursor points to the item in the tree and it`ll show right page in ICE Browser.
And in this way you are navigate well.

But if you use instead of this way of navigation
wiill use the links in browser: NEXT, PREVIOUS...
the cursor still points to the item where you click by mouse.


I think it`s not comfortable `cause you lost orientation in which part of documentation you are...

[jglick] I believe this is due to the links not pointing to the same URLs as the TOC items (i.e. links pointing to plain HTML pages but TOC items always pointing to anchors within the page). Could you

problem no longer relevant now that JavaHelp is used and there is one page per 
topic.
