Work with no page numbers (Web source)

In-text citation

As a 2005 study by Salary.com and America Online indicates, the Internet ranked as the top choice among employees for ways of wasting time on the job; it beat talking with co-workers—the second most popular method—by a margin of nearly two to one (Frauenheim).

Explain

Omit the page number if a work lacks page numbers, as is the case with many Web sources. If a Web site numbers its paragraphs or screens, give the abbreviation “par.” or “pars.” or the word “screen” or “screens” in the parentheses: (Smith, par. 4).
