<h2>Finding the Topic You Want</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>When you're viewing the Help window, click the tabs in the left frame to view the Help contents in different ways:
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li><b>Contents</b> shows the list of main topics.
|
||||
<p>Click a topic to read about it. Double-click to see its subtopics.
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If you can't find the topic you want, click the Search or Index tab.
|
||||
<li><b>Search</b> lets you search the built-in Mozilla Help.
|
||||
<p>Type a word or phrase and press Enter to see related topics. Then click the topic you want to read about.
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If your Search doesn't return any topics, try typing fewer words or a different combination of words.
|
||||
|
||||
<li><b>Index</b> lists topics alphabetically.
|
||||
<p>Click an index entry to view information on that topic.
|
||||
<li><b>Glossary</b> lists definitions alphabetically.
|
||||
<p>Click a glossary term to see its definition.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>To see information related to the Help topic you're reading about, click links in the Help window just as you would in a regular web page.
|
||||
|
||||
<p>For example, this link brings you to a glossary definition: <a href="glossary.html#cookie">cookie</a>. (Click the Back button to return to this page.)

|

<p>When you're viewing any web page, the lock icon near the lower-right corner of the window informs you of the page's security status.
|
||||
<p>When you're viewing any web page, the lock icon near the lower-right corner of the window informs you whether the entire contents of the page was protected by <a href="glossary.html#encryption">encryption</a> while it was being received by your computer:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If the lock is closed, the contents of the page is protected by <a href="glossary.html#encryption">encryption</a> while in transit over the Internet. If the lock is open, the page is not encrypted while in transit.
|
||||
|
||||
<p>For more details about a page's security status, click the lock icon (or open the View menu, choose Page Info, and click the Security tab).

|

|

<p>The Security tab for Page Info provides two kinds of information:
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>The top half describes whether the web site displaying the page has been verified. (For information on certificate verification, see <a href="#using_certs_validation">Controlling Validation</a>.)
|
||||
<li>The bottom half describes whether the contents of the page you are viewing is protected by encryption while in transit over the network.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p><b>Important:</b> The lock icon describes only the encryption status of the page while it was being received by your computer. To be notified before you send or receive information without encryption, select the appropriate SSL warning options. See <a href="ssl_help.html">Privacy & Security Preferences - SSL</a> for details.
