Changing Text Size | Saving My Place in the Class | Finding My Place if I Forgot to Bookmark Where I Stopped | I'm Lost and Confused! | Broken Link


I need to reduce the text size so I won't have to scroll so much! Or, I need to increase the size for reading comfort!

To adjust the text size in Navigator, click on the "View" menu item at the top of the screen, and then click on "decrease font" or "increase font" once or twice, until it gets to a comfortable size for reading on screen.

To adjust the text size in Internet Explorer, click on the "View" menu item at the top of the screen, and then click on one or more of the smaller or larger sizes until it gets to a comfortable size for reading on screen.

Depending on the browser version you have, the steps may vary slightly from the description above. If you have trouble, ask someone in your office to help!

I need to leave the class before I finish! How do I bookmark or save a page?

To bookmark (save) a page on Netscape, go to the top of your browser screen and click on the "Bookmarks" button. Then select the option "Add Bookmark." The next time you get back on this computer to continue with the class, click on the "Bookmarks" button, scroll down to the bookmark with text such as "DHHS: EEO Training for Supervisors > It's the Law."

To bookmark (save) a page on Internet Explorer, go to the top of your browser screen and click on the "Favorites" button. Then select the option "Add." The next time you get back on this computer to continue with the class, click on the "Favorites" button, go down to the listing with text such as "DHHS: EEO Training for Supervisors > It's the Law" and click on it. This will take you directly to the screen that you added to the Favorites earlier, so that you can continue with the class from the screen where you stopped.

Depending on the Browser version you have, the steps may vary slightly from the description above. If you have trouble, ask someone in your office to help!

What if I need to start back in the course and I forgot to bookmark where I stopped?

To find the page where you stopped, go to the home page or click on the "Contents" link at the bottom of any screen. Then look through the contents listing and try to find the section you were in by the topic descriptions listed. Not every page is listed, so the Table of Contents links may just get you close to where you stopped, but it's better than starting all over!

I'm lost!

If you clicked on a link and had trouble finding your way back to the class screen, next time try the following ...

Try using your browser's "Go" button or "History" function.

On most Netscape browsers, try the "Go" button first. Look for the "Go" file option at the top of your browser window. Click on it and look down the list. The top listing is the current page and the other pages you've been to recently are listed below. If you see one that looks like a class page, click on it and you can probably get back on track. If not, try the "Communicator" file choice at the top of the browser window, click on it, select "Tools" and then "History." You should then see an even longer listing of the sites you've been to. Choose the most recent class page and click on it.

On most Internet Explorer browsers, it's probably best to try the "History" button near the top of the window. Click on it, look through the list that will appear in a new left column, and click on the most recent class page. To close out the left history window, click on the "x" on the top right corner of the history window.

The instructions above may not work on your browser if you have an older browser version. Ask someone in your office who is good at getting around on the Internet for help if necessary.

If the Go and History searches don't work, try using your bookmarks to get back to any page that you bookmarked on the course. Then click on the Contents link to click on the area you were working on.

If you are lost in the course pages ...

Use the Table of Contents to find the area of training you were working on.

If you are "lost" in your understanding of some of the training materials ...

Talk to your supervisor. With a "two heads are better than one" approach, you and your supervisor may be able to go through some of the exercises or explore the linked websites to find the answer to your question.

Click on if you came to this section from a page within the course.

When I click on a link, nothing happens!

If you get an error message or "file not found" message ...

Try the link again. Sometimes, the linked web site is "down" and another click will get you there. If it still won't appear, you could try bookmarking the page (bookmarking instructions) and come back later to try the link again. If it doesn't work again later, please e-mail the webmaster for this site at DHHS.HR.division@ncmail.net and let us know which link doesn't work. If you can copy the address of the course screen page into your e-mail, that will help us locate the error and correct it.
