CHAPTER 11: Surfing the Web

Watching Videos in Browser

You will find videos in many web sites. You will be able to play most but not all videos.
If the Flash Player installs properly on your
DROID, you can play Flash videos right
inside the web browser window.
YouTube videos should also play right
inside your browser window.
Tap the screen to bring up the player
controls if they have disappeared.
Some videos you click on may actually
need to download onto the device. For
these videos, pull down the notification
window to monitor the download and
touch on the file once it is downloaded.
Your video player should launch and play
the clip.
TIP: Check out all the video player tips
and tricks in Chapter 15: "Viewing Videos,
TV Shows, and More."

Saving or Copying Text and Graphics

From time to time, you may see text or a graphic you want to copy from a web site. We
tell you briefly how to do this in this section, but to see how to get it done graphically,
including using the Cut and Paste functions, please see the "Copy and Paste" section
in Chapter 2: "Typing, Voice, Copy and Search." Here's a quick look:
To copy text, touch the Menu button and then tap More. Choose Select text. Now,
drag your finger across the screen to highlight text to copy. As soon as you let go, you
will see the words Text copied to clipboard appear on the screen (see Figure 11-7).
CAUTION: As soon as you release your finger from the screen, you will see the Copy to
clipboard icon. Make sure you have all the text you want highlighted before you release your
finger!
