Navigating with the toolbar buttons

The buttons along the top of the window do pretty much what their names imply. From left to right, these buttons are

Back/Forward: When you open a page and then move to a second page (or third or fourth), the Back button takes you to a previously visited page. Remember that you need to go back before the Forward button will work.

Add This Page (+): When you find a page of interest or a page you know you’ll want to remember, click this button to tell Safari to remember it for you in Lion’s cool new Reading List or as a Bookmark — two topics I explore further a little later in this chapter.

To the right of the Add This Page button is the Address field. This is where you type web addresses, or URLs (Uniform Resource Locators), that you want to visit. Just type one and press Return to surf to that site.

But wait — there’s more. To add other useful buttons to your toolbar, choose View⇒Customize Toolbar (or right-click anywhere in the toolbar and choose Customize Toolbar from the contextual menu). The Customize Toolbar sheet drops down, and you can drag items into or out of the toolbar to create your own custom set of buttons. In Figure 10-2, for example, I added (left to right) Home, AutoFill, Zoom In/Out, New Tab, Email (a link to this page), and Report Bug (to Apple) to my toolbar.
