Finding Text, Getting Page Information, and More

When you browse the Web, you may be on a mission of sorts—looking for a specific piece of information. You might be looking for a specific word or phrase within a web page. And when you’re on a page, you may be looking for more information about it. The NOOK browser can do all that and then some. To do it all, press your finger somewhere on the web page that’s not a graphic or link. A menu appears with these options:

  • Find on page. Looking for text on a page? Tap this option, and a search box appears, along with the keyboard. Type the text or phrase you’re searching for, and the NOOK finds the text, sends you to its location on the page, and highlights it in green. To find the next time the text or phrase is mentioned, tap the right arrow. To find a previous mention of it on the page, tap the left arrow. To exit the search, tap the X to the right of the search box.
