In these examples, text in brackets <b>"<"</b> and <b>">"</b> indicate places where the user supplies information. Note that the brackets are not needed for the URL, including the brackets will result in a 'Could not find session' error.</p> <p> You will be able to share Genome Browser sessions with the following link format:</p> <p><code>http://genome.ucsc.edu/s/<userName>/<sessionName></code></p> <p> @@ -253,16 +282,74 @@ <a name="moreInfo"></a> <h2>Additional URL parameters</h2> <h6>Are there any more resources for URL and link parameters?</h6> <p> For more information, please see our <a href=../goldenPath/help/customTrack.html#optParams>section on URL parameters for custom tracks</a>.
