The Browser and The Application

Knowing the difference between the application and the browser can greatly aid users in easy Web navigation. Always remember that the browser is the one which displays the data on each page and that a back button is normally found in it. This button, when clicked, re-displays the pages, but it does not mean that the current state of the application is being reversed. Likewise, clicking the Forward button is also not the same with having to do a Redo command on the application. Hence, users must be provided with links or toolbars and menus within the application to allow them to easily navigate according to the task they need to perform.
