Internet Explorer tips PART I

Internet Explorer is the most widely used net browser in our place(some may disagree).Yet most people don't know to use IE keyboard shortcuts effectievly or don't use them.Some of the shortcuts that prove valuable in net surfing are described below.

1.Alt+Enter
If we want to type a domain name eg: www.yahoo.com it is easy.But if we want to type in so many domain names per day it will be a difficult job.
An easy way to do it is to use the Alt+Enter shortcut.Just type in the domain name as it is eg:www.yahoo.com is written as yahoo followed by Alt+enter.

yahoo+Alt+Enter=www.yahoo.com

2.Ctrl+A
If we have to select whole of the contents given in a webpage,just type in Ctrl+A.

3.F5
If we want to refresh/reload a page just press F5.

4.Esc

To stop the current job press Esc.

5.Backspace
If we want to go back to the previous page,press Backspace.It is same as the button BACK.

6.Ctrl+F
Opens a dialogue box,"Find on this page"...whatever you have to find type in there...If the desired word or number is in the page,IE will take you to that spot.

7.F11
Pressing F11 takes the IE browser window to full screen mode.On pressing F11 once more,the browser window returns to its original size.

These tips are frequently used by me...Using these shortcuts have greatly increased my browsing speed,may help you also.
