A Basic Skills Question?
When you have studied the presentations above,
then ask yourself this question.
Do you understand what you see?
Is what appears when you single right click
anything on the page dependent upon Windows
(your operating system) or dependent on the Browser
you are using?
Given:
1. The author was using a specific Windows System when the
left data lists were documented.
2. This one file is specific and is used for all illustration on the left.
3. What differs were the three browsers: Netscape Version 7.0,
Netscape Version 4.77, and Internet Explorer 5.0.
Answer:
(a)
Windows (b)
Browser
When we referred to "right clicking anything" on this page we meant click
"something". Other than the column 1 and column 2 gray tables,
right click any other gray area (i.e., the scroll bars, the portion of the
menu and tool bars) and observe the effect.
Summary
What capabilities you have when using your computer
is, of course, dependent upon the operating system running it (Win95, Win98, Win2000, or XP).
But, the capabilities of your interface to the Internet is
highly dependent upon which Browser you have chosen to use.
Think! It won't hurt.
Are you willing to be told what browser you should use?
Next, will Bill Gates, one of these days, TELL you what Browser
you MUST use?
Could there be a better Browser than Internet Explorer?
Answer: (a)
Yes
(b)
No
