+		    <P>
+		    Several of the common display and navigation operations 
+		    offered on the Genome Browser tracks page may now be quickly
+		    accessed by right-clicking on a feature on the tracks image 
+		    and selecting an option from the displayed menu. Depending 
+		    on context, the right-click feature will let you 
+		    change the track display mode, zoom in or out to the exact 
+		    position coordinates of the feature, open the &quot;Get 
+		    DNA&quot; window at the feature's coordinates, display 
+		    details about the feature, open a popup window to configure 
+		    the track's display, or display the entire tracks image in 
+		    a separate window for inclusion in spreadsheets or other 
+		    documents. (Note that the &quot;PDF/PS&quot; option in the 
+		    Genome Browser top navigation bar can also be used to 
+		    generate a high-quality annotation tracks image suitable 
+		    for printing.)

+		    <A
+HREF="../cgi-bin/hgTracks?hgTracksConfigPage=configure+tracks+and+display">tracks 
+		    configuration page</A> is checked, and configure your 
+		    internet browser to allow the display of popup windows from 
+		    <em>genome.ucsc.edu</em>. When enabled, the right-click 
+		    navigation feature replaces the default contextual menu 
+		    typically displayed by your internet browser when you 
+		    right-click on the tracks image. A few combinations of the 
+		    Mozilla Firefox browser on Mac OS do not support the 
+		    right-click menu functionality using secondary click; in 
+		    these instances, you must use the explicit ctrl-click action
+		    to display the menu. 
+		    <P>
+	 	    Credit goes to Larry Meyer and Brooke Rhead for doing the
+		    lion's share of the design, development and testing of this 
+		    feature, with engineering support from Tim Dreszer and 
+		    additional testing by several others on the QA team.

 Searching for Tracks Just Got Easier!</B></FONT>
 		    <P>
 		    The number of genome assemblies and annotation
 		    tracks in the UCSC Genome Browser has increased 
 		    exponentially over the past few years. Along with this 
 		    growth, it has become more difficult for browser users to 
 		    sort through the many tracks to find the data they're 
 		    interested in.
 		    <P>
 		    With our latest Genome Browser release, we've introduced a 
 		    new track search feature that will help you to quickly and 
 		    easily find and display specific annotation data sets. The 
 		    search feature is available via the "track search" button 
 		    on the browser gateway and tracks display pages.
-		    <P>
-		    The default search takes one or more terms as input, and 
-		    returns a list of all the browser tracks in which the name,
-		    description, group or associated metadata contains the 
-		    terms. The advanced search option lets the user fine-tune 
-		    the search based on the track name, description, and group.
-		    Individuals interested in the ENCODE data available on 
-		    selected human genome assemblies can use the advanced 
-		    search to specify particular ENCODE metadata terms, such 
-		    as cell line, experiment type, etc.
-		    <BR><BR>

-		    src="/images/tracksearch.gif"
-                    alt="Track search screenshot">
-		    <BR>
-		    Once the list of search results is shown, you may choose 
-		    which tracks you'd like to view in the browser, and can 
-		    adjust the display modes. The search results list is 
-		    sortable by multiple criteria, and provides direct links 
-		    to detailed track descriptions and additional information 
-		    about the tracks.
-		    <P>
-		    Special thanks to Tim Dreszer and Larry Meyer for 
-		    implementing track search, and to the QA team 
-		    for their work in testing and finetuning it. We hope our 
-		    users, particularly those exploring ENCODE 
-		    data, will take advantage of this new feature. As always, 
-		    we appreciate your feedback. Please send comments or 
-		    questions to

                     <P>
 		    It is now possible to rearrange the order that tracks appear
 		    in the browser image directly from the browser image itself.
 		    To reorder tracks, click-and-hold the side label or gray 
 		    mini-button of a single track and drag the highlighted track
 		    to a new position within the image.
