As with the “Most visited” list, tap a star next to a site to add it to your Bookmarks,
and the star turns gold. Tap a gold star to remove it from your Bookmarks, and
the star turns gray. Tap any site to get the same set of options that you do when
you hold your finger on the site in the “Most visited” list. You can also clear your
history by tapping the “Clear history” button at the bottom of the screen.
NOTE
Tapping a site in the History list won’t send you to that site. Instead, you’ll have to hold
your finger on it and then select Open or “Open in new window.”
Finding Text, Getting Page Information,
and More
When you browse the Web, you may
be on a mission of sorts—looking for
a specific piece of information. You
might be looking for a specific word
or phrase within a web page. And
when you’re on a page, you may be
looking for more information about
it. The NOOK browser can do all that
and then some. To do it all, press
your finger somewhere on the web
page that’s not a graphic or link. A
menu appears with these options:
• Find on page.
Looking for text
on a page? Tap this option, and
a search box appears, along
with the keyboard. Type the text
or phrase you’re searching for,
and the NOOK finds the text,
sends you to its location on the
page, and highlights it in green.
To find the next time the text
or phrase is mentioned, tap the
right arrow. To find a previous
mention of it on the page, tap
the left arrow. To exit the search, tap the X to the right of the search box.
