A browser is a software program that allows us to view the Web. A homepage is the first screen, called a page, that you see when you link to a site. It is the welcoming message, or table of contents, or opening statement of a site. When you open the Netscape Communicator or Internet Navigator in our library, our computers take you to the Northwestern High School Media Center Homepage. The magic of the web is linking clicking and traveling from page to page or site to site.
Links can be text or graphics and can occur anywhere on a page.
Linked words are in another color and underlined. Some graphics are links and some are not. When your arrow turns into a hand you are on a link. To go back to the Northwestern High School media center homepage click on HOME at the top of your screen. Copy this quiz ONLY and paste it in a word document.
