| 00:00 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on the Mozilla Firefox Interface and Toolbars. |
| 00:05 | In this tutorial, we will learn about the Firefox interface and the toolbars. |
| 00:11 | In this tutorial, we will use Firefox version 7.0 for Ubuntu 10.04. |
| 00:19 | Let’s now take a look at the Firefox interface. |
| 00:23 | Firefox has all the features that a modern browser needs to have. |
| 00:28 | To learn how to use Mozilla Firefox effectively, one should be familiar with each of its features. |
| 00:34 | The Mozilla Firefox interface can be split up into 6 distinct areas, namely- |
| 00:41 | The Menu bar, the Navigation toolbar, the Bookmarks bar, the Side bar, the Status bar, and the Content area. |
| 00:53 | Let’s look at each of these and learn what it does. |
| 00:57 | Let's click on the File menu and click on New Window. |
| 01:01 | A new window pops up. |
| 01:05 | Some people have trouble looking at small script in their browser. |
| 01:08 | So, let's zoom into the page by clicking on View > Zoom and Zoom In. |
| 01:14 | Alternately, you can press Ctrl + +. |
| 01:18 | This will make the text bigger. |
| 01:21 | To know which version of Mozilla Firefox you are using, click on Help and About Firefox. |
| 01:27 | By default, Firefox displays a Homepage. |
| 01:32 | But, to set your own preferred webpage as Homepage, click on Edit and Preferences. |
| 01:39 | Windows users please click on Tools and Options. |
| 01:42 | In the General tab, click on Home Page field and type: ‘www.yahoo.com’ or any of your preferred webpage. |
| 01:52 | Now you can close Firefox Preferences window by clicking the Close button on the bottom right hand corner. |
| 02:00 | You can use the Edit menu to search for particular words within the webpage. |
| 02:05 | In the address bar, type: ‘www.google.com’ |
| 02:12 | Click on Edit and Find. |
| 02:14 | A small toolbar appears at the bottom of the browser window. |
| 02:19 | In the textbox, type the word ‘Gujarati’. |
| 02:23 | You will observe that the word ‘Gujarati’ on the page gets highlighted. |
| 02:28 | This function is very useful when searching through large text on a webpage. |
| 02:33 | Let's close this. |
| 02:35 | As the name suggests, the Navigation toolbar helps you navigate through the internet. |
| 02:41 | The Navigation bar is the large text box where you type the address of the webpage that you want to visit. |
| 02:48 | It is called the URL bar or Address bar. |
| 02:52 | Click on the URL and delete the address that is already there. |
| 02:57 | Now, type: ‘www.google.com’. |
| 03:02 | Press the Enter key. |
| 03:03 | You will now be in the Google Homepage. |
| 03:06 | Clicking on the 'back-arrow' icon will take you back to the page where you were before. |
| 03:12 | Click on the forward arrow to go back to the Google homepage. |
| 03:17 | To the right of the URL bar, is an icon shaped like a house. |
| 03:22 | This button takes you back to the default home page from whichever webpage you are on. |
| 03:28 | This function is useful when you are browsing from a particular site or a search engine. |
| 03:34 | Let's click on the homepage button. |
| 03:36 | Remember, we changed the 'home page' to ‘www.yahoo.com’ earlier on. |
| 03:42 | As a result, clicking on the homepage button brings us to the "yahoo" homepage. |
| 03:49 | Now let's look at the Bookmarks bar. |
| 03:51 | 'Bookmarks' help you navigate to pages that you visit or refer to often. |
| 03:57 | In the URL bar, type: ‘www.gmail.com’. |
| 04:03 | Once the page loads, click on the star symbol to the right of the URL bar. |
| 04:10 | You see that the star turns yellow. |
| 04:13 | Click on the star again.A dialog box pops up. |
| 04:17 | From the ‘Folder’ drop down menu, choose 'Bookmarks toolbar'. |
| 04:23 | Observe that the 'Gmail' bookmark is now added to the Bookmarks toolbar. |
| 04:28 | Click on the Homepage icon to go to the "yahoo" homepage. |
| 04:33 | Click on the 'Gmail' bookmark. This will direct you to the Gmail login page. |
| 04:39 | You can use the bookmarks bar for sites which you visit often but don’t want to have as your homepage. |
| 04:46 | Next we will look at the Sidebar. |
| 04:49 | Click on View and Sidebar and then click on History. |
| 04:54 | You see that the bar on the left side now has 3 options - Today, Yesterday and Older than 6 months. |
| 05:02 | The displayed option is subject to the intervals between the usage of Firefox on that computer. |
| 05:09 | Click on the plus sign, next to the Today icon, to expand the menu. |
| 05:15 | Choose the "google" link to be directed back to the google homepage. |
| 05:19 | See how easy it is to go back to the site that you visited before! |
| 05:25 | The Sidebar even has a Search function of its own. |
| 05:29 | You can type in the name of the site that you want to search for, in the search box. |
| 05:34 | This will then search through your history to find it. |
| 05:37 | In the search box, type: "google". |
| 05:39 | The "google" homepage comes up as the first result. |
| 05:43 | You can make the Sidebar disappear by clicking the small ‘x’ on the top right hand corner of the side bar. |
| 05:51 | Next, let's see what the Status bar does. |
| 05:55 | The Status bar is the area at the bottom of your browser window that shows you the status of the site you are loading. |
| 06:02 | Go to the URL bar and type: ‘www.wired.com’ and press Enter key. |
| 06:10 | Look at the Status bar quickly. It shows you the status of the loading of that webpage. |
| 06:16 | The Status bar can help you to understand why a particular site is not loading, the time it may take to load etc. |
| 06:25 | Finally, let's look at the Content area. |
| 06:28 | This is where you see the contents of the webpage you are viewing. |
| 06:33 | This brings us to the end of this tutorial. |
| 06:35 | In this tutorial, we learnt about: the Firefox interface, the toolbars. |
