Lady, you want two pages on one screen? Have them with extra relish!

How To
******

Attached files Hotback.htm and Sideside.htm ..... Check.

Backup your Hotlist (keep the extension).

Hotback.htm is a simplified Hotlist template. Copy it to the
location where Arachne expects to find the Hotlist, along
with Sideside.htm

Decide how you want to approach your 2-on-1 sessions.
Myself, I use the Dialer Page with extra links to the
backed up Hotlist, plus Hotback.htm (called Fresh Hotlist,
you'll soon see why).

Then edit Sideside.htm to load your chosen page in the
first column. Make sure the paths to the starting page
and Hotlist.htm are correct, if you've chosen non-standard
locations.

Now open Hotback.htm and save it as Hotlist.htm alongside
Sideside.htm or wherever.

Now, you're ready to hit the Web and compare pages side
by side.

Assuming you have a search engine linked to your starting
page, you hit the link and load the engine in the left frame.

Now you can harvest the interesting links and add them to
the Hotlist -- which is in the right frame, waiting to be
refreshed.

With a link to the Hotlist on your starting page you can
now go back and load two instances of the Hotlist and
follow different links in each frame.

When you're done, save the Hotlist if required and then
open Hotback.htm and save as Hotlist.htm and you'll be
as fresh as a daisy for the next onslaught.

I know you have a high-res monitor suitable for this kind
of browsing. For 640x480 I use a narrow Hotlist frame
targetted at the main frame, and use the Q key to chase
down all the harvested links.

For my regular stomping grounds the Surf Tabs are working
well. An improved version is now available.

Regards,

Jake
