You can choose to initially view the left side of the flashcard, the right side of the flashcard, or both. You set this option by clicking on the appropriate circle in the box that says 'Initially show'.
As you come to each new flashcard, read the definition carefully, then decide if you know the word - use the scratch area provided at the bottom to write it down if you want. Then check your answer by clicking on the appropriate button. Another way to see the answers is to put a check in the box that says 'View opposite before moving'. This will display the opposite side before going to a different card when using one of the player buttons. This option allows you to flip quickly through the cards without ever moving the mouse.
Move from one flashcard to another by clicking on one of the player buttons. Depending on which button you click, you can move to the first, previous, next, or last flashcard.
Click on 'Shuffle' to shuffle the cards in a random order. Click on 'Alphabetize-L' or 'Alphabetize-R' to alphabetize the cards according to the text in the left or right boxes.
You can 'tag' the flashcards you miss. Then when you've gone
through the list once, click on 'show tagged' to go over the ones you've
missed another time. Keep doing this until you know them all. To tag a
flashcard, put a checkmark in the box next to the word 'tagged', or
click on the 'Change-tag-and-move-to-next' button (i.e. 
).
To untag a flashcard, remove the checkmark or click the same
'Change-tag-and-move-to-next' button. You can also click on 'Tag all',
'Toggle tags', or 'Clear all tags' to tag cards.
If you've limited the display to only tagged flashcards, you can see all of them again by clicking on 'Show all'.
You can save your list of tagged flashcards to disk by clicking on 'Save tags'. Then when you come back to this web page another time, you can re-load those tags (by clicking on 'Load tags'). Then you can click 'View tagged only' to limit the display to only those cards, and see if you still remember them.
If you prefer to study from a list, as opposed to a cards, you can make a list of the words on the flashcards by clicking on 'Tagged as list'. This will open a new window with all the tagged words in a side-by-side table. You can then print this list. If you want the list to include all the cards, click 'Tag all' before you click 'Tagged as list'.

All of the features described above have been tested on several browsers and do work. If it isn't working for you, then the problem might be your browser. These pages are designed to work best with Netscape Navigator 3.0 or higher. Microsoft Internet Explorer does not support all of the features of Java Script. Also, if you're running your web browser from a write-protected network drive, the 'Save tags' feature probably won't work.
