Finding a Web page you've visited

Netscape Navigator stores in your computer's memory a temporary record of the Web pages that you've viewed everytime you use Navigator. This "history list" of Web pages can be seen and easily accessed by clicking on the Go menu.

 

 

Of course, by now, you've learned that the pain-free way to ensure that you can get back to a Web page you'd like to view again is to bookmark it.

Finding Information on a Web page

Sometimes, when you're searching for specific information on many Web pages, it's useful to be able to quickly find a word or phrase on a page. This feature can come in very handy when you're doing research and would require specific data. To easily find a word or phrase on a Web page, click the Edit menu, then click Find... (or type "APPLE"+"F"). A Find On Page dialog box will appear (as seen below).

 

 

Type in the word or words you're hunting for, then click Find (or press "RETURN" or "ENTER"). If the words that you were looking for are present on the page, it would appear highlighted on the Web page.

Searching on the Internet

If you're searching for some specific information on the Net, you can search by keywords using a search engine. With Navigator, you can simply type in the keywords for the topic(s) that you're searching for in the Location Bar, and press "RETURN" or "ENTER"). This will automatically activate Netscape's search engine, Netscape Search, and the Web pages matching your keywords will appear in your browser window. Clicking on the Search button  on the Navigator Toolbar will also connect you with Netscape Search. Or, you can conduct keyword searches using one of the myriad of search engines available on the Internet.
