To Save a Web Site Address
When you discover a Web page that you'd like to come back to or think
you might visit frequently, you can save the address of the page in one of
the HotJavaTM Browser Places lists. This makes loading the
page again easier than retyping its URL (Web site address).
To save the Web site address:
- Choose Remember Place from the Places menu, or click on the
Remember Place button.
HotJava adds the address of the current page to the New Places List.
Or:
- Choose Remember Place in List from the Places menu, and drag the pointer
right to the pullright menu. From this menu, choose the list where
you'd like the address to be saved.
Or:
- Press the right mouse button over a link to display the HotJava Commands
pop-up menu, then choose Add this Link to Remembered Places.
HotJava adds the address of the link to the New Places List.
To revisit the site:
- Choose Show Remembered Places from the Places menu.
This displays the Remembered Places window, where you can access all of
your Places Lists. Lists appear in the top half of the window, and the contents
of the currently selected list appear in the bottom half.
The title of the page you recently saved (also called its bookmark)
appears at the bottom of the New Places list.
- Double-click on the bookmark to revisit the site.
Alternatively, choose the bookmark from the New Places list and click
on the Go to Place button.
Or:
- Choose Go to List from the Places menu, and drag the pointer right to
the pullright menu of lists.
- Choose the list from this menu where your bookmark was saved, then
choose the bookmark from the second pullright menu.
To Manage the Places Lists
The HotJava Browser provides at least two lists at startup:
- New Places is where
pages are put when you choose Remember Place from the Places menu.
- Cool Places is a general list of interesting places, including pages you
can use to search the World Wide Web.
To move a bookmark from the New Places list to the Cool
Places list:
- Choose Show Remembered Places from the Places menu.
HotJava displays the Remembered Places window. The New Places list is
selected, and the contents of the New Places list appear at the bottom of
the Remembered Places window.
- Select the bookmark you want to move.
- Choose Cut from the Remembered Places Edit menu.
- Select Cool Places.
- Choose Paste from the Remembered Places Edit menu.
Your bookmark is added to the Cool Places list.
You can also move a bookmark by using the mouse to drag it to a new location.
You can drag it to another location within a list, or to another list or folder.
