Note: When using the 3ware HTML Bookshelf, the Back button on the Safari
browser does not step you back through pages accessed in the bookshelf. You can
use the navigation features built into the bookshelf, however, including the
Previous/Next arrows at the top of each page, the breadcrumbs, and the Contents/
Index/Search pane at the left.
Tip: The Back button does work correctly when viewing the 3ware HTML Bookshelf
in Firefox.
