Nothing big, really. An example is to have one window open for a TOC, and
another window open for the chapters; to change chapters you drag the
hyperlink from the TOC window to the chapter window. The benefit is keeping
the browsers' window placements the same while traversing a large site
quickly. I do this a lot for large sites with content that is formatted
largely the same, like an online newspaper or LUGNET. I'm not sure if I'm the
only one who does this. :-,
In IE 5.0 at least, you can drag an image with a hyperlink, and the hyperlink
would be dropped (as opposed to the image). Netscape gets confused if you
drag something that is both an image and a hyperlink, and refuses to drop any
content.
