How to Navigate Our Web Site
This web site is utilizes a
user-friendly copyrighted navigation system. It's intuitive design will
allow you to find information by simple exploration. If you would like to learn more
about how it works or if you are experiencing difficulty navigating our web site, please
read the following:
- Site Structure
This site utilizes multiple frames viewing. At the top of your
screen (below your browser's toolbars) you will find the "Main Control Panel"
buttons (primary topic areas). Clicking on any of these will display that area's
respective "Content Menu Buttons" (topics) below the primary topic
you've selected. The lower portion of your screen (the main viewing area) will begin
with that area's "Introductory Page". Pressing any of the topic buttons
located near the top of your screen will display that topic's information in the main
viewing area. Further text hyperlinks and/or buttons may be found on various pages
which either indicate "sub-topics" or provide access to additional information
either within or outside of this web site.
It should be noted that this site uses a
copyrighted, proprietary navigational system available by special license only. Use
of this technology either in part or whole is strictly prohibited.

Color-Coded Text Hyperlinks
Most text hyperlinks (text links to other pages, other content
within a page or web sites) are color-coded. Within this web site, only text
hyperlinks will use an underline. See the following table for color-code:
| Text Hyperlink Color-Code |
|
| Color |
Description |
Link |

| *In Microsoft's® Internet
Explorer®, "non-visited" links that refer to information within
the same page will appear as being previously visited. |
- Provided "Locator" Facilities
To help you in locating specific items or to ascertain if an item
exists on this web site, we've included both a Table
of Content as well as a Search Facility.
- Your Browser's "Back Button"
If you use your browser's "back button" to return to a
previously visited page, you may find it necessary to press it twice. This is due to
the frames structure used that replaces the navigation area (frame) with the appropriate
area required for the page you selected. If you press the browser's "back
button" and you do not return to the page you expected, simply press the back button
again.
It should be noted that the navigation provided by the site is the simplest
and quickest way to "get around" or navigate.
- Under Construction Areas
From time to time you may encounter an "under
construction" page. Though we try to avoid such practice, it is sometimes
becomes unavoidably necessary. If you encounter such a page, please use the contact
information found on that page or see Contact
Us!.
