Navigating within a webpage
Webpages that are optimized for mobile devices typically open at a size appropriate
for your phone. Often, you can't zoom or even scroll their contents.
Web pages that aren't designed specifically for mobile devices typically open in
overview mode: the page is zoomed out so you can get the big picture (you use
settings to change how pages open, as described in "Changing Browser settings" on
page 190).
To scroll a webpage
S
Slide your finger on the screen.
OR
S
Roll the TRACKBALL in any direction.
Rolling the TRACKBALL selects items on the page in the direction you roll,
scrolling selected items into view if necessary. Pressing the TRACKBALL has
the same effect as touching the selected item (opening a link, selecting a text
field, and so on).
The TRACKBALL is particularly useful for selecting items that are close
together, such as text fields and other controls in forms, or closely adjacent links
on a webpage.
To zoom in or out on a webpage
You may not be able to zoom in or out on webpages designed for mobile devices.
1
Slide your finger slightly on the screen to reveal the zoom controls.
2
Touch the plus or minus side of the zoom control
out.
To quickly zoom into a section of a webpage
You may not be able to zoom in or out on webpages designed for mobile devices.
S
Double-tap on the section of the webpage you want to view.
The webpage zooms in and wraps the text in that section to fit the width of the
screen, so you can more comfortably read all the text in that section by scrolling
up and down.
If you adjust your zoom level in this view, Browser remembers your preference
while you stay on that page.
