Tips for Safe Browsing

Ok, so curiosity got you. You had to find out what this link was all about. Well, I made up this page here to give you a few tips on how to make your browsing experience a little more hassle free.

First, let’s talk browsers. Different web pages act differently if you use Microsoft Internet Explorer than it would if you use Netscape Navigator. I’ve tested all the sites I’ve created with both and tried to make both browsers happy. But, if you use Opera or some other different web browser, I have no idea what’s going to happen. I haven’t had any complaints yet though. (Knock on wood.)

Now, what about links? You clicked on one to get to this page. Do you know how to get back from where you came from? Well, you get back by hitting the BACK button on your browser. It’s usually located on the top right of the browser. Just click and you go right back. What’s that? You don’t want to wait for the page you just visited to reload? Well, there’s a shortcut that can eliminate having to wait on that page to load again. Instead of clicking once on the link with your left mouse button, right click on the link to get the menu. Choose “Open link in new window” and it will do just that. Then, when you’re done viewing that page, all you have to do is close that window and WHAM!, you’re right back to where you came from without having to wait on the page to reload. Neat.

If you plan on visiting these horseshoe pages a lot, I recommend that you add them to your Favorites Folder (Explorer) or to your Bookmarks (Navigator). Then, you just click on the link and off you go.

Many horseshoe pitchers have asked me why these webpage named are so long. Well, in order to have a page that is www. yourname.com it costs money. But, if you go to a free web server like tripod, you can get a free website. The only setback is that their name is in the address before yours. I think a free webpage is worth that.

If you have any comments for me on how to improve any of these web sites, just email me at Hufreisen@hotmail.com or leave a message on the Message Board. Any comments are appreciated. I’m always trying to think of new ideas and new things to do. If you have any ideas, feel free to share them.

I hope this page has helped you accomplished better browsing. Now, go out and have fun.

Happy Browsing!
