Thanks Monte - that code sorts the *calling* end of the recipe and the widget changes page to the one containing the currentDestination.
However, what about the *receiving* end of the recipe? Nothing seems to be happening upon arrival at the page to get any closer to this particular destination amongst the many on the same page. Where should one look to understand the options and handlers for the specific destination upon arrival *after* the change of page, re scroll into view, zoom, focus, setting the associated hilited text, etc?
