Hi Sarah,
I was just looking for a way to give the user immediate feedback about
each reference, and thought the title may be useful.
The problem with linking back and forth is that there are *so* many
references on each page, sometimes two or three to each quote, so it

Hi Andy
Thank you for your input.

Thanks for your link - impressive titles!
Just wondered, is it possible to have them degrade when javascript is
