Commercial word processors like MS Word have this feature. A fish-eye view is like holding a magnifying glass over a specific portion of the site map. That portion is enlarged; other parts of the outline become smaller but remain (at least theoretically) available. -- "Site Navigation Mechanism A site navigation mechanism is a mechanism for easily orienting and moving about within the site. Site navigation mechanisms include but are not limited to: - a home page with hyperlinks on it and subsequent pages that link to the other pages at the site - site map(s) - search engine(s) - expanding outline(s) - dynamic fisheye views showing all linked pages or topics related to any page. - 3-D virtual representations of site content" [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/WD-WCAG20-20040730/#id4517396 -- Catherine Roy www.w3qc.org www.communautique.qc.ca http://perso.b2b2c.ca/zara/
