I can't imagine using internet explorer to read a book. And if I did, I'd be lost anyway, even with page numbers, unless I wrote it down somewhere. I would never remember a page number, which is why, for documents that don't retain one's place, e.g. a txt file read in k1000, I prefer to put an easily repeated and remembered search string which I use for all books of that type and can erase when I find my place again in that book and start reading. Its worth noting that the books from Baen don't have page numbers in them, and they come straight from the publisher. Mary
