Q: When I am looking for a website using a search engine, I sometimes have to scan lengthy web pages to look for specific text. How can I do this faster? A: After you have opened the website (Either in Internet Explorer or Firefox):
1. Press the CTRL + F keys
-This brings up the ‘Find’ window
2. Type in the text you are looking for into the ‘Find what:’ field
3. Press the ‘Find Next’ button
You are taken to the first location where your text appears occurs on that web page!
You can also use CTRL + F to search through lengthy documents or spreadsheets.
