I have a T-mobile branded 8320. No data plan, but I can access wifi just fine. I'm using the browser that came with my phone--not sure if it is the official blackberry browser, it just says "browser," nothing else--and I want to know how to open more than one web page at a time and switch between them ...
That is something I have tried. But I don't use Application Switcher-I just hit the end key and go back and forth on each. It doesn't get rid of the open pages, so I can still look at them. But for some reason I don't find Opera faster than the browser that came with my phone, so I'd rather just use the default browser ...
In either browser you are limited to one page at a time. Dr.S's
advice is really the only option. Maybe one day we'll get tabbed
browsing of some sort.
The only reason I suggest the App Switcher is for easy of access to the browsers. I'm not sure how your phone is setup (icons), but mine are separated into folders. Its just easier for me to use the switcher =-)
The Application Switcher is the fatest way to switch back and forth between the Blackbery Browser and Opera Mini.
This is the fatest way to pull up the Application Switcher:
Press and hold the ALT key > while still holding the ALT key Press the Escape Key > a pop-up window will appear > the app you would like to open will be highlighted (you can use the trackball to choose a different app). > when the app you wish to open is highlighted release both the AlT Key and Escape Key at the same time.
I don't think you have to hold the escape key the whole time.
Once you hit the alt, hit the escape and the switcher pops up. At this point continue to hold the alt key and use the trackball to move to the app you want. Releasing the alt key switches to the highlighted app.
EDIT: Just checked. While holding down the alt key, you can repeatedly hit the escape key and cycle through the possible choices. It's like alt-tab on Windows machines.
