There are two places that activty feedback should be
provided to let reader know what is (or about to) happen...
[1] If the file is taking a long time to download or to render,
there should be a flasher or gauge to reinforce the fact that
activity is taking place andthat nothing has 'hung-up' or crashed.
I noticed this on a file that does a lot of color swatches in tables.....
[2] If there is a lot of hyperlinks as in a jump table
then cursing over one of the hotspot areas should either:
a] change the shape of the cursor or
b] display the link href in the status bar
or preferably both....
One can't assume that the hotspots will be of a different color than
surrounding text or underlined ( i cant even find a way to select
underlined links in amaya but that isnt the point) Feedback on
clickable areas is necessary for a browser to be useful by other than
the designer....
