1PHiLES Using the search form

Use surf  boards

The trick below works for Microsoft Internet Explorer. Using surfboards in other browsers (such as Opera), if nothing happens after clicking:  right click on a link and choose "open in a new window".

Using Microsoft Internet Explorer: You are now reading a mindphiles.com window. Let us call it Window 1. In any such window, you may see links to a Surf Board, where you find references to all pages relating to a subject (like "immigration", or "Perfect Inertia, Line Of"). These are your guided and web editor organized alternatives to simply typing key words in the search form. Those links to Surf Board open in a new window. Here is an example: "Perfect Inertia, Line Of".  Click on it. It opens a new window. Window 2. Then switch back to this "read easy" page. Do not close the new window 2.
What can you do with Surf Board (window 2)? You can click there on a subject page. For example, if you are at "Perfect Inertia, Line Of", you click (on the Surf Board, window 2) on: "Perfect Inertia: Towards a General Model Of African Business Planning". A page will appear, again in a new window (the Surf Board Target Window, window 3).
Now, if you want to keep searching mindphiles.com from that Surf Board index page (“Window 2”), just tile vertically your screen with windows “2” and “3”. Window 3 will replace its contents when you click on a link in the index window 2.
When you are satisfied with information obtained, you close Windows 2 and 3, and continue where you were on Window 1.
The procedure is probably made possible by a bug in Microsoft Internet Explorer, but a very useful one. We should all hope they will not find it. Even the editor himself uses this method extensively!

Troubleshoot Note: If Window 3 does not appears in a separate window, you have two options
1) If you want            to keep the frame in which Window 3 erroneously appears,    in the surfboard right click on your link and choose "open in a separate window"
2) If you do not want  to keep the frame in which Window 3 erroneously appears,    close it and just click again on your link in the surfboard. It will appear in a separate window

1PHiLES Found your page in an uncomfortably small subframe? Open in a new window!

Go BACK ("Back" screen button or "Backspace" keyboard button), then right-click on the link that led you to your  page and choose "open in a new window".

You can go FORWARD by clicking the "Forward" button, or press keys Shift+Backspace

1PHiLES Easy reading: shape your window

This site presents longer full window text pages. Many people tend to print them if they want to study them entirely. This is not necessary if you develop the right techniques:

	Laptops (good ones) are best for longer reading.
	You read the easiest if you shape your full text window like you see right:

How?

If you see this (left) right up in your browser, then press restore (or, an equivalent: double click on the blue top bar of the window).

This (left) is the screen you should see

Then position your window by dragging its corners with your mouse.

To occasionally view full screen, press Maximize (or, an equivalent: double click on the blue top bar of the window).
