part of your display, as opposed to the timeless sense of logical
connection suggested by <a href="../W/web-pointer.html"><i class="glossterm">web pointer</i></a>. Your screen
shows hotlinks but your document has web pointers, not (in normal usage)
the other way around.</p></dd><div class="navfooter"><hr/><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="hot-spot.html">Prev</a><EFBFBD></td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="../H.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"><EFBFBD><a accesskey="n" href="house-wizard.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">hot spot<6F></td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="../index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"><EFBFBD>house wizard</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
