Browsers
Keep in mind that the web does not look the same to all
users. People use different browsers such as Netscape, Internet Explorer, Mosaic, or other
browsers that support graphics. Others can only make a connection through Lynx, a program
that displays text without graphics. Many members of the Internet community have access to
web information only through e-mail. Modem speed and the type of connection also influence
how the web looks on various computers.
You may encounter a web page that will "behave oddly": it may look unusual, or prompt an alert message. Some pages may crash your web browser. Do not assume that you did something wrong. It could be that the page is coded to offer features that only work for either Netscape or Internet Explorer. If you encounter a problem, start again. You may wish to avoid sites that will disable your computer.
General Navigation
To trace your path through a website, use the
"Back" and "Forward" buttons on the top of your browser window. Note
that most Internet sites supply ample navigation to get around the site without these
buttons.
Saving a Page
In most Internet browsers, pressing "CTRL"
and "D" will add the page you are on to "Bookmarks" (Netscape) or
"Favorites" (Internet Explorer).
Articles
The Travel area is divided into episodes corresponding
to sections of the parable. Each episode contains articles written by scholars and other
experts. Each article is available in three Levels:
Level I is a100-word summary.
Level II is a 500-word summary.
Level lII is the full article, including linked "hyper-verses" whenever the author notes a biblical citation. To read the citation, move the cursor over the red highlighted area. A small window will appear containing the biblical text. By moving the cursor over another highlighted citation, the text will be replaced with the current biblical reference.
Most articles contain links to related articles and maps.
