Navigating within a webpage

Webpages that are optimized for mobile devices typically open at a size appropriate for your phone. Often, you can’t zoom or even scroll their contents.

Webpages that aren’t designed specifically for mobile devices typically open in overview mode—the page is zoomed out so you can get the big picture. You can change how pages open, as described in “Changing Browser settings” on page 217.

To scroll a webpage

SSlide your finger on the screen.

OR

SSwipe your finger over the Trackpad in any direction.

Swiping over the Trackpad selects items on the page in the direction you swipe, scrolling selected items into view if necessary. Pressing the Trackpad has the same effect as touching the selected item (opening a link, selecting a text field, and so on).

The Trackpad is particularly useful for selecting links and other items that are close together, such as text fields and controls in forms.
