Step 2: Menus, buttons and addresses |
|
|
 |
 |
At the very top of the Web browser's screen are various important menus and buttons.
The menu bar
The menu bar is at the very top of the browser. It says things like "File",
"Edit", "View", "Go", "Favorites" (or
"Bookmarks") and "Help". This menu bar is where you can do various
important things such as quit out of the program, get help on using it, or change certain
display characteristics such as the screen's font size, the background colour, etc.
The button bar
Another set of functions is contained in the "Button bar" (the line of buttons
marked "Stop", "Home" etc).
"Address" (or "Location")
And another key section at the top of the browser, below the top menu, is the
"Address" (some browsers call this the "Location"). This is where you
can type the full address of a particular Web page in order to visit it. For example,
typing "http://www.oceanfree.net/" (without the quotation marks of course) gets
you to the opening page on the oceanfree.net site. In most modern browsers, you don't even
have to type the "http://" bit of the address - the browser will put it in
automatically for you.
