This technique allows you to have simultaneous connections to more than one webpage and to display the webpages in separate windows on the screen. This procedure varies from one web browser to the next but is usually a simple matter of clicking on the File menu and selecting New or New Window from the options that appear. Consult your web browser's Help files if you are unable to immediately find this feature. It is also possible to open a new web browser window by holding down the mouse button (PC users need to use the right mouse button) while the cursor is positioned on a hypertext link. From the menu that pops up, select Open in New Window or New Window with this Link. A new browser window will open on the screen.
