Wrong link to ATCA Forum

Section 4.3 of the Users Guide has the wrong link to the ATCA forum:
It links to http://atcaforum.freeforums.org
rather than to http://atcaforum.atnf.csiro.au/

Please fix this broken link so that ATCA Users can find us!

Poor navigation buttons in the User Guide

There's a bug that should be fixed/changed in order to make it easier to navigate the Users Guide.

There are five buttons at the top and bottom of each page:
[<] [>] [<<] [Up] [>>]

The [<] and [>] buttons take you to the previous or next sub-sub-section of the guide, which is not very useful. Example:
At the top of the page for Section 1.3, clicking [>] takes you to Section 1.3.1, which is a paragraph down on the same page.
Clicking [<] takes you to Section 1.2.6, which is at the bottom of the Section 1.2 page.
At the bottom of the Section 1.3 page, clicking on [<] does nothing, as the previous sub-sub-sub-section is already visible from the bottom of the page.

Change/fix:
Clicking on the [<] or [>] buttons should take you to the next online page. That is, clicking on [<] at the top or bottom of the Section 1.3 page should
take the user to the top of the Section 1.2 page. Similarly, clicking on [>] at the top or bottom of the Section 1.3 page should take the user to the
Section 1.4 page.

Text vs numbers in table and figure links

The references to tables and figures are strange. See section 1.2:
Figure 1 is labeled as "Figure 1" in the figure caption, but in the text it is "Figure atcatrack" where "atcatrack" is the link.
Table 1.1 is labeled as Table 1.1 in the table caption, but in the text it is "Table table_sensitivity".
For clarity and convention, references to figures and tables in the text should be by number rather than by their behind-the-scenes label.
