Vista Tips - Multitab home pages in Internet Explorer 7
From older versions of Internet Explorer, you are familiar with the concept of having a home page, a Web site that is displayed when the web browser is loaded.
In Windows Vista, that classic browser feature has been mixed in with tabs. Now users can specify multiple Web sites to come up by default when they load Internet Explorer and can display them in different tabs.
Although this is not exactly a groundbreaking feature, it is a nice hidden feature that helps you customize your browser.
Using a multitab home page is easy when you know the secret.
Just follow these steps to set up your own multitab home page:
- Start Internet Explorer.
- Click Tools, and then select Internet Options.
- When Internet Options loads, you will see the Home Page section at the top of the screen.
- To use multiple sites as your home pages, just enter each URL on a separate line.
- When you have finished, click OK to save your changes.
- Click the Home button to instantly see your changes.
