Browser Basics
Can I Serve You?  No,
Just Browsing.
A server is a computer that puts information
on the World Wide Web.
A browser is software that lets you move around on the Web.
Two popular browsers are Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape.
To use the Internet, you should know how to use the basic buttons on your browser.
 Takes
you back to the previous page.
 Moves
you forward through the pages you have seen.
 Stops
loading a web page. This is helpful if a page is taking too long to appear.
 Takes
you to your pre-selected start-up page. If you are using a library computer, "home" takes
you to the library's web page.
 Prints
the page you are viewing. BE CAREFUL when you use this button, because you
can't control how many pages you print! To control how many pages you print
(because it's 10c a page if you print at the library), use the print command
from the File drop down menu (for instructions, click
here.)
