you select these areas of text, the web address of the linked page will be
displayed as an information message.

button could take you to a map of the web site you are looking at.
• Other pictures that give no indication that they contain one or more links
until you select them.
Tip! You can tell if an image contains a link by tapping on it: if there is a page
linked to the image, the address of the page will be displayed as an
information message in the top right corner of the screen.
To open the page associated with linked text:
• Tap on the link once to highlight it, then tap on it again to start retrieving
the page, or
• Tap in the browser window, then press the Tab key to select each hot area
of the screen in turn, until the link you want to follow is highlighted. Press
Enter. If the link is in a different frame from the current one, use Ctrl+Tab
to cycle round the frames.
