Using the Experimental Web Browser Your Kindle includes an experimental web browser that enables you to surf the web and view most Amazon web pages. Web Browser supports JavaScript, SSL, and cookies, but does not support media plug-ins. You must have a Wi-Fi connection to access most websites. To launch Web Browser, from the Home screen tap the Menu button and select Experimental Browser. The first time you access this page, you will find a list of default bookmarks for commonly used sites. You can access these bookmarks later, by selecting Bookmarks from the Web Browser menu. To enter a URL, tap the search field at the top of the screen. Use the onscreen keyboard to enter the web address. A .com key is added to the keyboard when you are entering URLs. The address field will retain the last URL you entered. The following tips will help you get the most out of the Kindle Web Browser: To zoom in on a web page or image, place two fingers close together on the center of the screen and move them apart. To zoom out, place two fingers a little apart on the screen and pinch them together. Tap links to open a web page. Drag your finger left/right and up/down to navigate a web page. Tap the Back button in the upper left corner to return to the previous page you were viewing. Scroll down a web page by dragging your finger up the screen. To enter information in a field on a web page, select the field and the onscreen keyboard will display. To return to previously viewed web pages, tap the Menu button and select History.
