You
probably already know how handy tabs are. Tabs let you keep multiple
sites open at the same time so that you can bounce back and forth
without the hassle of typing a web address. The good news is that
Internet Explorer Mobile also offers tabs, and it lets you keep up to
six sites open at once. Six is fewer than your PC browser allows, but
it’s plenty on a phone.
1. Open a New Tab
In Internet Explorer, tap Tabs.
Tap New to open a new browser window.
Tap the address bar, and start typing the web address. If you see the one you’re looking for in the list, tap it.
Otherwise, when you finish typing, tap Go.
Warning:
Smartphones are data
gluttons. Be sure you’re familiar with the terms of your service
contract. Maybe you’ve heard tales of folks who mistakenly thought they
had unlimited data plans—and wound up with a $10,000 phone bill? All
true.
2. Switch Among Open Tabs
In Internet Explorer, tap Tabs.
Tap the tab you want to open.
To close a tab, tap the X icon.
Tip:
If you see a number in the Tabs icon, it shows how many tabs you have open.
