[To Overview]
Some navigational notes:
In general, if you click on the 'Back' button it will bring to to the
point of departure in the module from which you came; this may be
different from those listed at the bottom. Even if the module from
which you came is listed at the bottom, it is still
preferable to use the 'back' button, because the explicit bottom-of-page
hot-spot will return you to the beginning of the module, and you
will have to scroll down to get back to where you were.
