The following tips work across many Web sites. They can help you find information faster and avoid getting lost.
When a Web page is several screens long, you might find it faster to use the browser's Find function to find a word within the page. The Find function is usually available from a menu, and is different from the Search function that might go to another Web site.
You can bookmark all of the various reports, searches, virtual books, and so on from this system. If you find a set of useful information by doing a complicated search, you can bookmark the URL and return to that page later or send it to someone else.
When you have followed several links and want to go back to the original page, you can choose how far back to go rather than pressing Back several times. Depending on the browser, either click and hold the Back button, or click on the small arrow next to the Back button. You will see a list of page titles, and can go directly to any one.
If you want to keep a particular page available while following links from that page, you can open a link in a new browser window. Right-click the link and choose Open in New Window. You can close the window later, and the original page is still available in the original window. This technique is useful for exploring several paths at once.
By default, this system's search function opens its result page as a separate window. This allows you to navigate through a set of search queries and switch to the original window at any time to try a different way of finding the information.
