Galaxy Tab 2, silly question on typing

[Rerednaw]

Okay...got this as a hand me down from my dad.

Been playing with it and I have this question:

When on a webpage and you start typing the keyboard covers the entire screen. So you cannot see what you are typing.

How do you hide the keyboard? 94 matches on Samsungs site...none of them match this so looking for the newbie answer here

Thanks!

Should be able to hit the back button to minimize the keyboard.

The back button. With on screen buttons, the back buttons turns to a down arrow, indicating to hide the keyboard.

Not on the tab2. At least not on the last update anyway.
