If you have activated Net Guard, you are prompted to confirm
the connection. See “Net Guard” on page 98 for more
information.

If you had a previous data connection, the last page you
visited is displayed when you start your browser. Though the
browser is open, you are not currently in an active data
session—that is, no data is being sent or received. As soon as
you navigate to another page, the active session begins.

See “Keeping Track” on page 65 for information on how your

Navigating the Web

Navigating through menus and Web sites during a data
session is easy once you've learned a few basics. Here are
some tips for getting around:

Softkeys

During a data session, the bottom line of your phone's display
screen 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.

Tip:

Depending on which Web sites you visit, the labels on the
softkeys may change to indicate their function.
