Title bar
The Netscape title bar indicates the position
within the web (this does not specify a file name, but is
merely used for orientation). At the current time you are
on web page [stdSEM Help Netscape Introduction]. Back
button
Your browser's Back button always returns you to
the last web page you were on. Note the difference to the
"Back" icon in the field underlaid in blue. The
Back icon is always linked to a fixed page, irrespective
of which other page you have just arrived from.
Printing out web pages
Things couldn't be simpler: Simply click the
"Print" icon on the browser. You can set a
number of interesting print options in menu "File -
Page Setup" (headers and footers, page margin,
etc.).
Set bookmarks
If you want to jump quickly to a specific page, you can
set a bookmark on this page using "Bookmarks - Add
Bookmark". The title of this page will be included
in the "Bookmarks" pull-down menu. If you later
select this bookmark, you will automatically call up the
relevant web page.
Color of links
A link automatically transfers you to another web page
(or to another position on the same web page) when
clicked. If you have already visited this page or other
position before, the link will be marked in the default
color violet. Links which
you have not used before are shown in the default color blue. Links inside graphics, e.g.
the icons in the header and margin do not change color.
You can select the expiry date for locations already
visited in the "Options - General Preferences -
Appearance" menu; the relevant links will then be
displayed in blue again.
What about errors?
- Error message "Can't locate remote host:
xxx.siemens.at": The server holding the
SEM web cannot be accessed at present. Please
wait until the system administrators have managed
to remedy the situation (click the Reload button
after a few minutes to see if the server is
functioning again...)
- The message "Connect: Contacting host
yyy.siemens.at" is displayed first,
followed by the error message "There was
no response...". The proxy server
cannot be addressed at present. Here, too, you
will need to exercise a little patience and try a
"Reload" attempt a little later.
- If accessing is possible on one PC but not on
another, this is probably because a "proxy
server" has not been set. Further
information on this aspect can be found in the
Help menu item "Setting
important options".
