Surf's up!

You've made your first connection to your Internet Service provider, and now you are ready to begin surfing. The question is where do you start?

Most web browsers, when you invoke (run) them, will come up to a default webpage. That is, they will automatically take you to a specific place on the Internet, a place that's been pre-programmed by the browser company or your ISP, for you.

When you are surfing the web, you can choose from millions of websites to visit. Your browser has several ways of allowing you to do this.

Navigator has two distinct ways of allowing you to surf to any location, assuming you already know the URL you need.

There is the File|Open Location option from the main menu and there is the location window on the menu bar. All you need do in either spot is enter the URL you require and away you go.

Explorer has an address window, and the File|Open menu option to perform the same functions.

I-Comm has the File|Open menu option.

All of these perform virtually the same function. You enter the address of the location you wish to visit and the browser will take you there.
