Chapter 5. Web Browsing
The navigation bar has an address field with which you can type a Uniform Resource Locator (URL)
— the name or address of a website — into the address field at the top of the browser window. Mozilla
supports keyword searching via the address field as well. Type a keyword or phrase into the address
field and click the Search button. The search results appears in the main browsing area.
Figure 5-2. The Mozilla Navigational Bar
There is also a sidebar on the left that contains additional options, such as integrated search function-
ality, bookmarks, and a What's Related option that displays webpages similar in topic to the page
currently displayed in the main browsing area.
Figure 5-3. The Mozilla SideBar
At the bottom left corner of the browser window, there are the following small icons: Navigator,
Mail & Newsgroups, Composer, Address Book, and IRC Chat. These are separate applications
integrated into the Mozilla suite and are useful for experiencing email, chat, news, and other aspects
of the Internet besides the Web. For information on using the Mozilla Mail email client, refer to
Chapter 6 Email Applications.
Finally, there is the Personal Toolbar which can be customized with your own bookmarks or quickly
take you back to your homepage. The Personal Toolbar is useful for keeping and categorizing web-
pages so that you do not have to type the address every time you want to access the page. To add a
site to your Personal Toolbar, click and hold the left mouse button on the small icon next to the URL
in the address field and drag it directly to the Personal Toolbar or into a folder icon. You can access
Personal Toolbar folders by clicking the icon and choosing the website from the drop-down menu.
