YOUR CONNECTIONS TO THE WEB AND WIRELESS DEVICES 8 CHAPTER Browsing the web Internet Explorer Mobile provides quick and easy access to web pages. You can view most sites on your smartphone that you can view on your computer, including those with security and advanced features, such as JavaScript and frames. Internet Explorer Mobile supports JavaScript, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), and cookies, but does not support plug-ins (Flash, Shockwave, VBScript, WML script, and so on) or Java applets. DID YOU KNOW? The security certificates and 128-bit SSL strong encryption enable you to browse secure sites, such as online shopping, banking, and email. Remember, some secure sites also require a specific browser and may not work with Internet Explorer Mobile. Ask the organisation for an alternative access point that is compatible with Internet Explorer Mobile. BEFORE YOU BEGIN Do the following: • Be sure to subscribe to data services from your network operator. This is necessary for browsing the web. • Make sure your phone is on and that you're inside a coverage area (see Turning your phone on).
