Next & Previous.

Would you ever keep a "Next" link to the left and "Previous" to the right while letting someone navigate your page or application? It seriously sucks : A Sample[^], btw why did he do that? :~ I think nobody ever does it. X|

Quite a bit of open sauce documentation does this.

You actually see that a lot with GNU/OSS/GPL-ish documentation. My guess is that the tools used to generate the output of the documentation are responsible for the navigation elements. FWIW,
I hate it as well! :mad: I much rather a single large HTML document myself - I hate having to click back and forth trying to remember something I read a few "pages" ago... Also makes offline viewing easier; it is a royal PITA to have to assemble those single pages into a single document just to be able to print something I can read while traveling. Peace!-=- James

Hmm, I wonder if the author of the tools was Israeli or from one of the Arab countries. I see this a lot at the office (here in Israel) when my coworkers write in English, they still look at it right-to-left. That is, they staple the pages together on the top right, and so on. Very annoying.

See DeleteFXPFilesEx-green screen users still have issues with scrolling so people have carried that over into web development, that is why you see all the paging instead of just a long document.

Yeah me too. I hate it. A plain HTML with enough "#" bookmaks within the page would be just fine.

I was thinking that since the most often taken path would be Next, that choice was listed first.
