When you open a Web page in your iPhone, you'll get an eyeful. You won't see a watered-down mobile version of a Web page; instead, the iPhone dishes up full-fledged graphics and pictures.
To open an Internet page in your iPhone, follow these steps:
1. Tap the Safari icon at the bottom of the Home screen.
Safari is an Apple Web browser.
2. Tap the address field.
If you can't see the address field, tap the status bar or scroll to the top of the screen.
3. Begin typing the Web address or URL on the virtual keyboard that slides up from the bottom of the screen.
4. Do one of the following:
• To accept one of the bookmarked (or other) sites that show up on the list, merely tap the name. Safari automatically fills in the URL in the address field and takes you where you want to go.
• Keep tapping the proper keyboard characters until you've entered the complete Web address for the site you have in mind, and then tap Go at the bottom-right corner of the keyboard. You don't need to type www at the beginning of a URL. So to visit www.dummies.com, for example, entering dummies.com is sufficient.
You are transported to the site in question.
 | Even though Safari on the iPhone can render Web pages the way they are meant to be displayed on a computer, every so often you may run into a site that will serve up the light, or mobile, version of the Web site, sometimes known as a WAP site. Graphics may be stripped down on such sites. Alas, the producers of these sites may be unwittingly discriminating against you for dropping in on them via a cell phone. Never mind that the cell phone in this case is an iPhone. Feel free to berate them with letters, e-mails, and phone calls until they get with the program. |
