    Hi Bmoore1129,

    To send a web link:
    Right Click the page
    Select: "Send Page "
    OR
    Click on File
    Select: "Send Link "

    For a Desktop Shortcut of a web page:
    Catch the small icon in the Location Bar and drag it to the Desktop. This will create a shortcut to the page.

    Ramona :D

    The send feature is usually located when you right click the page about halfway down the context menu.

    The other place you can usually find it is on the File menu, also about halfway down.


    Was this a full version of Netscape, or a stripped down one without email installed?

    Hi Brooks and Bmoore,

    Just what I was going to ask. Where did you download your Version of Netscape 7.0?

    Let us know...

    Ramona :D

    This is the stripped down (10 meg) download. I use Outlook Express.

    I rebooted into a different install of windows that has the 10 meg stripped down version installed. This one does not have any send page or send link options either.

    You may need the thirteen meg stripped down version with email. It seems when you strip the email out of the install, it also strips out the ability to send pages by email.

    You don't have to use the mail and you can elect to not install AIM with it if you don't want it.
