Site Information

You can listen to the content of a page or paragraph on the Lafarge website by clicking on the "Listen" button.

• When the button is next to an article, you can listen to the whole article.
• When the button is next to a paragraph title, you can only listen to that paragraph.

If you cannot hear any sound, please check the volume of your speakers, both on the task bar and on the speakers themselves.

You can store a page from the site in your browser's memory so you can access it more easily in the future. This function is available on most pages. To use it:

• click on the  "Favorites" button on the top right of the page,

R.S.S. ("Really Simple Syndication") is a real-time information feed which brings together all or part of a website's content in an .xml file.

Subscribing to the R.S.S. feed means you are informed automatically, without having to visit the site, when new content is added to your chosen pages.

An R.S.S. feed provides the title and first words of the new information and a link to the complete page.

To use an R.S.S. feed:

• click on the R.S.S. icon on the site,
• copy the url address that is displayed,
• add  the address to an R.S.S. reader (also known as a "news aggregator") such as Netvibes, to receive all your site updates in one place and avoid the need to consult them individually.

You can print the content of most of the pages on the Lafarge site:

• click on the "Print" button at the top right of the page,

• the page to be printed will open in a new window,
• click on "Print" in the dialog box which will open.

You can send the content of a page on the Lafarge website to 1 or more recipients. To do this:

• click on the "Send" button at the top left of the page,

"Podcast" is a combination of "iPod" and "broadcasting". The podcast function allows you to download content as a sound file then listen to it on an MP3 player without being connected to the internet.

Subscribing to the podcast feed means you can automatically download and listen to new pages as they are added to the site. To subscribe to the podcast feed:

• download and install a podcast software (generally free of charge), such as iTunes, Winamp or Juice,
• copy the address of the podcast feed from the Lafarge website and paste it into your podcast software,
• each time you plug your MP3 player into your computer, the player will recover and download the content from the feed.
