When you open a Tru64 UNIX HTML Online Help volume, you will find a navigation button bar below the help volume's title. This button bar looks like the following illustration.



The button bar appears at the top of the table of contents, each chapter and section, and the index. It includes seven different buttons. The entire button bar always appears, but some buttons might be blank to show that they are disabled.

The following table describes what the buttons do:
