  <title>Browse the web</title>

  <p>Web browsers can be used to view pages on the Internet when you have an
  Internet connection. To start browsing the web:</p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>When you start up <app xref="introduction">Web</app>, your cursor
      should be in the text entry field at the top of the window. Type in the
      URL of the webpage that you want to visit or your search term.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Press return to go to the web page or to search.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>When you first start up <app>Web</app>, you will not be shown any tabs.
  <em>Tabs</em> are used to view more than one web page in one window. To
  <em>open a new tab</em>, select
  <guiseq><gui style="menu">**gear**</gui><gui style="menuitem">New Tab</gui></guiseq>.
  Once the new tab is open, you can use it as you would normally use a new
  window.</p>

  <p>You can also <em>open a link in a new tab</em>. Right click on the link,
  then select <gui style="menuitem">Open Link in New Tab</gui> or use the
  middle mouse button to click on the link.</p>
