This seems like the right approach. We'd like to use it to
define a linear sequence, for example, the sections of a chapter.
However, we should probably be sure to distinguish "next" and "prev"
from "forward" and "back", which have to do with the navigational
sequence.
In a previous message, you
mentioned using the GROUP tag also for this purpose. Can you
explain use of the GROUP tag? I'd like to use the GROUP tag to
is define a set of links shared by a set of documents, such as
chapters all containing links to a table of contents, or a glossary.
Thanks.
