I received this in my email this week. It explores, draws together and resolves some of the issues raised in this discussion group under the above thread.
Subject: parabole et 4 points Date: Wed, 03 Dec 1997 15:43:34 +0100 From: Bernard Geneves <Bernard.Geneves@imag.fr> To: cabri-forum@imag.fr
Synthèse des réponses reçues : en général, par quatre points, il passe deux paraboles.
le site d'AbraCadabri contient toute une chronique consacrée àcette question, HREF="http://www-cabri.imag.fr/abracadabri/RubConiques/Projectif/ProjectifGene.html"
Paraboles passant par 4 points</A>avec une approche expérimentale, suivie d'une construction des paraboles due àMichel Guillerault (Michel.Guillerault@imag.fr).

I found the exposition very helpful, especially in achieving what I had originally set out to do: Draw a complete parabola from its intercepts.
