Saved Site Re-Opens Up As All Lines Only ?

[Robert4]

Hello,

Not sure if this is the best Forum for this.
If not, please let me know.

Most of the time when I place a shortcut to a site that
I want to go back to later, it opens up as just All lines.

How can I do a Save that will re-open up as the original site is.
Same graphics, etc.

Thanks,
Bob

What does this mean?

Do you mean "create a bookmark"?
Or... something else...?

To bookmark a site, just type "command-D". You'll then see a dialog asking where you want to save it, and you can modify the name if you wish.

Another way to "save" a webite address is to create a webloc file.
That's a small file that can be saved on your desktop or wherever you wish.

To create a webloc, I do this:
a. be at the page you wish to save
b. place the pointer into the URL bar "up top", and click once or twice so that the entire URL is highlighted like this:

c. now, click and HOLD the mouse button on the "favicon" on the left, and NOT LETTING GO, drag it onto the desktop and release it.

This should create a small webloc file that you can move around like any other file., rename, send via email, etc.

I keep a few on my desktop for "quick access".
Others stored in other locations...
