(HTML) web pages on the internet as originally designed.

hypertext markup language (XHTML), or the wireless
markup language (WML).
With Web, you can zoom in and out on a page, use Mini
map and Page overview to navigate on pages, read web
feeds and blogs, bookmark web pages, and download
content, for example.

your service provider. Service providers will also give you
instructions on how to use their services.

internet. See ‘Access points’, p. 122.
Connection security
If the security indicator is displayed during a
connection, the data transmission between the device and
the internet gateway or server is encrypted.
The security icon does not indicate that the data
transmission between the gateway and the content server
(or place where the requested resource is stored) is secure.
The service provider secures the data transmission
between the gateway and the content server.
Security certificates may be required for some services,
such as banking services. You are notified if the identity of
the server is not authentic or if you do not have the correct
security certificate in your device. For more information,
contact your service provider. See also ‘Certificate
management’, p. 117 for more information on the
certificates and certificate details.
