A related question: Popups or secondary windows for See Also lists?
I had originally put these into popups. But then someone argued that
putting them into secondary windows would make it easier for users to browse
through a set of See also's without losing their place after making a
choice.
Which do the rest of you use? And more generally, what do you use secondary
windows for?
TIA,
