Looked everywhere but can't see any instruction of how to refresh a web page on the E61 or for that matter a "back button" to go back to the previous web page.

Anyone know how to do this please ?

with the page open, press the options soft button, scroll down to navigation options then select reload.

I must have stared at that menu for ages without seeing that...many thanks.

Is there a "back" button on the E61?

Found these shortcuts....

0] During a browsing session, pressing the 0 key returns you to your Home Page or Bookmarks List.
[1] Displays the Bookmarks List
[2] Searches the text in the current page
[3] Navigates back to the previously viewed page
[5] Lists windows
[8] Toggles the Page Overview miniature image on and off
[9] Goes to the address entered
Zooms images in, making them larger
[#] Zooms images out, making them smaller

when you navigate to another page the right softbutton becomes labelled 'back'

Thanks again.....:icon14:

It is even better than that. When you have navigated to more than one page, the right soft key will be labeled back but pushing it will result in a display screen of mini pages of where you have been and you can go back to any of them (within some limit, I am not sure how many). That way if you want to go back two or three pages you don't have to navigate through each one of them separately. Also, once you have gone back, the forward selection under the navigate menu selection (where the reload option is) becomes active.

Keep playing with the browser, it has a lot of functionality compared to anything I have used on a handheld (I was a WM5 user before switching over).

I noticed the mini pages Fred...couldn't make out what they were at first. But yes that is a great option. Just learning all this and as usual the Nokia manual is a bit ...light on this. SO I appreciate everyones tips.

You're right, its a very good browser by any standards let alone a smartphone.
