Browsing the Web

Browsing the Web is easy once you've learned a few basics. Here are some tips for browsing the Web with Sprint PCS Vision:

Softkeys

When browsing the Web, the bottom line of your phone's display contains one or more softkeys. These keys are shortcut controls for navigating around the Web, and they correspond to the softkey

buttons directly below the phone’s display screen ( / ). Depending on which Websites you visit, the labels on the softkeys may change to indicate their function.

To use softkeys, simply press the desired softkey button ( / ). If an additional pop-up menu appears when you press the softkey button, select the menu items using your keypad (if they’re

numbered) or by highlighting the option then pressing .

Scrolling

As with other parts of your phone’s menu, you'll have to scroll up and down to see everything on some Websites.

Press the Navigation Key up or down to scroll line by line or press the volume buttons on the side of the phone to scroll one page at a time.

Selecting

Once you've learned how to use softkeys, you can start navigating Websites.

Select on-screen items by using the Navigation Key to highlight the desired item, then press the desired softkey button.

You'll find that the button is used primarily for selecting items. This softkey is often labeled “OK.”

If the items on a page are numbered, you can use your keypad to select an item.

Links, which appear as underlined text, allow you to jump to different Web pages, select special functions, or even place phone calls.

To follow a link, highlight it then select the appropriate softkey.

Tip: The tenth item in a numbered list may be selected by pressing the key on your phone’s keypad, even though the number 0 doesn’t appear on the screen.
