Figure 11–1. Web browser page layout. 
NOTE: On your DROID 2/X the icons shown on the menu items may appear slightly different than 
shown in figure 11-1, but the names and functions they perform will be the same. 
As you look at your screen, notice the Address Bar in the upper left side of the screen. 
This displays the current web address. You can also type search words right in the 
address bar. If you type words and click Go or the Enter key, then the DROID assumes 
you want to do a web search. By default, this is set to Google search, but you can 
change that if you want.  
At the bottom of the screen are five icons: Back, Forward, Add Bookmark, 
Bookmarks, and Pages View.
