Hello mm43.
Unless you're using something like a task manager, just go into menu > settings > applications > manage applications > menu > sort by size. Wait for it all to load, then click the browser you're using ("browser," "Dolphin," etc) and if the "force close" button is not greyed out it's running.
Clicking that button will of course stop the browser.
Some task managers can be configured to empty caches and close all programs when exited, etc. No need for them, in my opinion, because of the ease of the menu path to the application manager and the tools in there.

Not using a task manager All I want to do is know my browser isn't sitting there using my web allowance when I think it's shut
Do I have to check in applications folder all the while then?
mm are you using 2.1 or 2.2?
there is an app called 3g watchdog free on market that lets you monitor data usage, you might like
A using 2.2. Does the browser not close then when you stop using it and press home?
good 2.2 controls things nicely, no need for an app killer or manager (in fact they will clash)
pages aren't running in background but being cached for speed and ease of retrieval (from what i can gather).
you're already doing the right thing
Not very often I seem to do the right thing lol
Thanks again
Dont suppose you know how to empty gmail trash on the phone as well? lol
It won't go
open up gmail so you see your inbox, long press on email you want to delete, will bring up popup
read, archive,mute,mark read,delete,add star,change labels,report spam,help
No delete in the Gmail App
Googled it but no solution
Do I have to go on the net and sign in and do it then? Only option?
Ou
Thanks.wasn't pressing hard enough lol. But that only deletes one by one. Takes ages to empty.the trash lol

ok just had a play with gmail app, even easier way to delete, when looking at inbox, there is a greyed out tick on the right, as soon as you touch one and turn it green, popup appears at bottom of screen archive,delete,labels. check the emails you want deleted, and multiple emails bye bye

Thanks Quite a few to tap then. But they just go from the inbox to the bin and you start all over again
Was hoping for an empty the bin option. But never mind lol
