/*********************************************************************

This class is used in the Phind java applet (Phind.java).

A ResultDisplay is a Panel that can display a single Component, which will
be a ResultBox or PhindTitle object.

ResultBoxes can be "chained" together with their "prev" and "next" fields,
allowing us to have an arbitrary number of "displays" in which to show
phrase lists.

Main methods:
* emptyContents will remove the component and emptyAll the "next" display
* display will add an item to the first (ie: most "prev") available box
