The buttons on the toolbar at the top of your Netscape window allow you to perform some common tasks while connected to the Internet. Clicking a button once performs the task written on the button. The tasks are as follows:

	Clicking this button takes you back to the previous page you were viewing during your current Internet session.
	This button is the opposite of the Back button, and moves you forward one page.
	Clicking this button takes you directly to the Sympatico Home Page.
	Sometimes technical difficulties cause a page to display improperly, causing problems with text, images or other parts of a page. Clicking Reload retrieves the same page again, which usually fixes the problem.
	If you are in text-only mode (because you clicked Options on the menu bar and clicked Auto Load Images), you are receiving only the text of Web pages, no graphics or pictures. Clicking this button will load the images for the current page you are viewing.
	Clicking this button allows you to type an Internet address or URL in the Open Location window that appears. Type the address (make sure you type it correctly!) and click the Open button or just press Enter.
	If you have a printer connected to your computer, you can print the contents of the current page by clicking this button.
	Click this button to quickly find a word or phrase in the current page only (not anywhere else on the Internet). This can be useful when the current page is much larger (longer or wider) than can be displayed on your computer screen.
	Sometimes, because of delays, it takes longer than you want to wait for a page to completely display on your computer screen. Whenever this button is red (not grey), you can click it to stop receiving a page.

You can find more about this toolbar from Netscape's on-line handbook.

You don't have to be connected to the Internet to read the Netscape Navigator Handbook since it came with your Sympatico software. Look in your Sympatico Netscape folder for a file called "Online Documentation" (Macintosh), or "Online Books" (PC).
