Many people do
not know how to use their web browser and
the tricks that are available. Here are a
few on many.
For example how
to make the content appear larger or smaller
so they can read it better or fit the whole
page onto their screen.
It's quite
simple actually without going to the extent
of clicking on VIEW and changing it from the
ZOOM.
Simply hold your CTRL button and scroll the
Mouse Wheel forward (enlarge) or back
(reduce).
----------------------------
Something
that's relatively new is TABBED browsing.
if you want to
view another page from a LINK within the
page you're viewing, click your mouse wheel
(push it down) - yes it does click - on the
link that you want to view and you'll see
another Tab open in the same browser window.
I find it useful if I want to view a number
of results on a search (Google or whatever).
Saves me going back and forward between
viewing a page (link) then back to the
search results. Also, you can read down the
search results while the page you've
selected is loading, then going to read it
later after you've looked through more
search results.
You'll also
notice a + or a blank little tab if you want
to open another tab instead of opening
another browser.
Clicking the
Mouse Wheel on a Tab also closes it, instead
of click on the X.
----------------------------
People usually
have a Home Page that comes on when they
open their browser, not aware they can
change it.
You can do 1 of 2 things
1. Navigate to
the page that you want to use as your
default 'opening' page click on TOOLS in the
MENU bar, go to the bottom to INTERNET
OPTIONS and click on USE CURRENT
2. As the above
(Internet Options) and type in the page you
want to replace what is shown in there.
Try right clicking
just under the address bar & you will see
many options appear. By clicking each (1 at
a time) you can make them appear/disappear......Menu Bar, Favourites Bar,
Command Bar and other add-on
Bars. Maybe get rid of a few. |
