Control F6 seems to get you right back onto the Web page and away from 
address bar and tool bars. If you just press F6, it'll move you one by one 
through several tool bars before you finally arrive on the main screen. 
That's my experience, anyway.

Hi List,

    I hope no one minds that I changed the subject of this thread, since
that seems to be what everyone is talking about.

    Now, I have a question:

If I press alt d to get the web address and then want just to return to the
web page, what do I press for that?

    Don
