12 The Web Browser
5. The Web Browser.
To browse the World Wide Web you need to select the Internet button on the Main Menu or the
Browser key on the remote control.
After launching the Internet TV Set-Top Box Browser for the first time in your session, the Web
page you will see by default is called the Home Page. This might depend on your current settings,
and usually is one of your Internet Service Provider’s pages. Regardless of its actual content,
think of it just as your starting point of any Web browsing session.
A Web page usually contains text and images
(sometimes animated). It also contains links to other
pages, and selecting a link (moving the pointer on it
and pressing the Enter key on the remote) will make
the browser retrieve the linked page, and display it
as the new current page. A link can be one or more
words, usually displayed in blue, but also an image,
fixed or animated. Moving the pointer around the
screen will reveal the links available within the page:
they become underlined when the on-screen pointer
is on them. Sometimes a single image contains more
than one link; this is called an “image map” and can
be easily identified since it get underlined “as a
whole”, although more links are actually available within it, in text or icon form. Just move the
pointer in the area immediately surrounding the link of interest, and press Enter to follow the
associated link.
While most of the content in the screen will change each time you display a different Web page,
the lower part of the screen always contains the Browser menu bar
. Below it, a status line will
show the current page title.
The buttons on the menu bar are:
Go To - Lets you type in the full Web address of a page you want to see (see below.)
Home - Loads and displays the Home Page.
Favorite - Enters the Favorite bookmarking system (refer to the “Favorite pages” section below.)
Search - Lets you type in the keywords for a Web search (see below.)
Help - Displays the context-sensitive information pages.
Quit - Closes the Browser and displays the Main Menu. It does NOT hang-up the telephone line.
Remote Control specific functions
While all the functions found on the browser menu bar are available also on the remote control ,
vice-versa is not true: the remote control gives access to few more functions not available as on-
screen buttons. These extra functions include the on-screen keyboard
(as described in the
“Getting Started” section), scrolling, history navigation, Fast Go To and the Options menu.
Scrolling
Many Web pages on the Internet are designed to be displayed on computers with much higher
screen resolution than a TV screen.
