Hello,

Can you put a link at the end of one show to take viewers directly to another show?

I made a 52 page show (with audio and photographs), but it was way too large of a file for easy online viewing, so I split it up into 6 shows. I would like to put a link on the last page of each show that will take viewers directly to the next show.

Here's the problems I encountered: I tried it out, and in "slide show/view show" it links beautifully, except that each show stays open, so by the sixth show, it's going pretty sloooow. When I upload it to the net, the links don't work at all.

So I need to know:

1) Can I link shows together as described above?

2) How can I link the shows so that they WORK online?

3) Is there any way to link the shows so that the current show closes before the new one opens?



Thank you!
