                 <h3 style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;">What is a One Time Password?</h3>
                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.25em;">A One Time Password (OTP) is a password valid only for a <strong>single use</strong> and, once used, cannot be used again for authentication. OTPs avoid a number of shortcomings that are associated with traditional (static) passwords.</p>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">
                 <h3>What can I do with this app?</h3>
                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.25em;">This application serves one purpose only. It calculates and prints a OTP.</p>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">
                 <h3>What can I do with OTPs?</h3>
                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.25em;">Most people use OTPs to log in to their website administration, CMS, or remote console.</p>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">
                 <h3>Can I log into my Google account?</h3>
                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.25em;">No. Google uses OTPs, but in a slightly nonstandard way. OTPWCalc cannot calculate OTPs useful for Google authentication yet.</p>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">
                 <h3>Can I log in to Win/OSX/Oracle?</h3>
                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.25em;">Yes, but some work is needed on the Windows/OSX/Oracle computer to configure the authentication subsystem.</p>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">
                 <h3>Can I log in to Unix/Linux?</h3>
                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.25em;">Yes, by using PAM and it's quite easy.</p>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">

                 <ul style="margin-top: 0.5em;">

                 </ul>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">
                 <h3>Why isn't OTPWCalc compatible?</h3>
                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.25em;">OTPWCalc might not be compatible with your platform of choice, usually because the necessary hardware isn't available to the author for development.</p>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">
                 <h3>What happens to my password?</h3>
                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em;">Take a look at the entry point in
                     <strong>main.js</strong>:</p>
                     <code style="margin-left: 2em; display:inline-block; line-height: 120%;">
                        var secr = $('#paswrd').val();<br />
                        var resp = hash(secr, user, iter);
                     </code>
                 <p style="margin-bottom: 0.25em;">In other words, the password you enter is neither stored nor transmitted. In fact, OTPWCalc doesn't store or transmit any data input <strong>at all</strong> (see James Bond question later.) It's a <em>calculator</em> in the true sense, just like a pocket calculator that adds numbers.</p>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">
                 <h3>Is OTPWCalc safe and secure?</h3>
                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.25em;">The algorithms of OTP have proven worthy of <strong>high security applications</strong>. OTPWCalc has been carefully designed and is tested thoroughly. It's both secure and safe to use.</p>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">
                 <h3>Is it useful in a corporate setting?</h3>
                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.25em;">Yes. Custom built enterprise versions are available accompanied with commercial support. Visit the <a href="http://otpwcalc.europalab.com/">OTPWCalc homepage</a> for information.</p>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">
                 <h3>Does James Bond use OTPWCalc?</h3>
                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.25em;">Maybe, but spies probably just look over shoulders or use cameras to steal the static passwords used in OTP systems.</p>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">
                 <h3>Same as Yubikey or RSA SecurID?</h3>
                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.25em;">Yubikey, RSA SecurID, and OTPWCalc use similar technologies for similar applications, but OTPWCalc is strictly software and doesn't depend on the time or date.</p>
             </div>
             <div data-role="collapsible" data-inset="false" data-theme="c" data-content-theme="d">

                 <p style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.25em;">This varies according to the operating system used so there's no single answer.</p>
