Menu Styles Info

The Beeline should have a menu style suitable for your computer or TV, Web browser, modem speed, and personal preference. There are six menu styles to choose from. Use the table below to determine which menu style is best suited for your setup. (While The Beeline supports all Web browsers, it has been optimized for Netscape's and Microsoft's Web browsers.)

Each Section Menu (Level One) style can be called up from the bottom of the page. You may return to the Welcome Page by clicking on Home ( and ).

All Level Two Return buttons ( for online, for HiveCD ) in the page header will call up the Section Menu (Level One) for that menu style.

Exception: At this time, all Level Three Return buttons ( or ) will return you to the Styles page where you may start a new search with your preferred menu style. The Footer Bar's Styles ( ) tool bar will also work in this manner.

Tip: The B ( ) tool bar will return you to the B-ginning (top) of the page. On longer pages, clicking on a red leader line (like the one below) will also beeline you to the top of the page.

Section Menus (Level One)

Section Menus are on Level One. However, the tool bars at the bottom of their pages can put you into the Tables Menu mode. To return to another menu style, click on the Styles ( ) tool bar.

Category Menus (Level Two)

Category Menus are on Level Two. Again, the Footer Bar can put you into the Tables Menu mode. To return to another menu style mode, use the Styles ( ) tool bar.

Topic Menus (Level Three)

Topic Menus will be on Level Three. At this time, all Topic Menus (Level Three) contain Web listings. (This level will become Topic Menus when they are defined.) Also, the Other and WeB Pix pages on this level will put you in the Tables Menu mode. Once again, the Styles tool bar ( ) will let you start over.

Web Browsing Tips & Tricks

Your Web browser settings and computer system (or Internet-TV converter) determine how well Web pages appear to you. Suggestions on how to get the best possible view of the Web will bee found in Tips & Tricks ( ).

A tip from the Bees: If The Beeline looks "funny" to you, it is either your Web browser or hardware -- or both. Web browsers interpret HTML code differently and so it is impossible to design "perfect" Web pages for everyone. For best results, use Netscape's or Microsoft's Web browsers (both are free downloads). Contact your Internet service provider (ISP) for all Internet service support and connection problems.
