I've discovered the situation is not quite as I described above. In fact, there is a horizontal scroll bar, but is not seen unless you scroll down to the bottom of the visible text. If the index is large, this will take many, many screens of vertical scrolling before you can scroll horizontally. For me, the current functionality is workable, now that I have discovered how it works. But I suspect that many viewers of the html docs would find the index unusable, as they may not discover the horizontal scroll bar. Sage has excellent documentation. It deserves an index with a less opaque interface. -- Kevin Horton Ottawa, Canada --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
