Both pages use the links to Resistor Terms at the top of the page; As in these definitions:
Adjustable Resistor.
Lead-Screw Resistor.
Non-Wire Wound Resistor.
Potentiometer.
Reostat.
Trimmer Resistor.
Variable Resistor.
The page covering companies that Manufacturer Potentiometers works off the link. There also also links to Derating Potentiometers, and Wire-Wound Potentimeter Derating. There are dozens of other pages relating to resistors and Trimmers.
A Trimmer is a variable resistor that is produce that only supports a full adjustments, a trimmer is not made to handle continuous adjustments or changes. Each of those two pages show four or five different examples of package styles.

5/26/10 For what ever reason the page covering surface mount trimmer resistors is receiving almost no page views ~ 11 page hits this year.
The page didn't really have much text and it was only linked from one other page. However I just added a bit more text and I linked the page from resistor related page.
