The NOOK Tablet’s browser doesn’t confine you to a single window—you can use multiple ones and easily switch among them. In fact, you may have multiple windows open without even knowing it.
The NOOK Tablet uses Adobe Flash Player, so you can watch the Flash videos you find on websites such as YouTube and many others.
To open a new window, tap the Options menu, and from the menu that appears, tap “New window.” A new window opens, and your old one appears to go away. (Don’t worry; it’s still there, lurking in the background.) When you open a new window, it opens to a Barnes & Noble page welcoming you to the NOOK. You can change that, however; for details, see Most Visited and History Lists. On the new page you’ve just opened, head to the website you want to visit. You’ve now got two web pages open, even though you only see one of them. You can keep opening web pages like this, and have multiple pages open, although you’ll see them one page at a time.
How to switch to another window? Tap the Menu button and tap
windows. You see a list of all the browser windows you have open. Tap
any you want to switch to. To close a window, tap the X button at its
far right. To open a new window, tap the windows icon
at the top of the screen.
