Adding to MyAlphaWeb

There are three states for the add icon, inactive, active & confirmation.

The Inactive grey icon will only change to blue when a valid URL appears in the top left white box, & it is ready to be saved.

When the Active blue icon with a black cross is highlighted & the URL has changed in the URL box (top left), tapping the the icon calls up a dialog enabling saving to your own MyAlphaWeb, tap the blue icon with the white cross to accept or change the keywords associated with the URL you are trying to save, the select save.

 

In addition to adding individual URL pages to MyAlphaWeb, entire two-letter Alphabet pages from TheAlphaWeb can also be saved & stored into MyAlphaWeb.

 

Example: If 'Google Español' is added to MyAlphaWeb, the dialog will appear, it may be useful to add Spanish or Espanol after the word Google or before or as well, the choice is yours, then select save, remember you can repeat the process with a multitude of keywords so it appears more than once in MyAlphaWeb.
