Genie 7110 manual card id=welcome title=Welcome to White Pages, First name, Andrew

Navigation Guidelines 3

■All cards should have a title attribute of 18 characters or fewer.

Longer titles may be truncated, obscuring meaning. Test the title to make sure it fits. Not all phones display the title.

Example 3-3

Nokia 7110 Browser

-Welcome to Wh... -		Options items:
Last name: Smith		Find
First name:		Done
Andrew
City & State: San
Options	Back

Diego, CA

<card id="welcome" title="Welcome to White Pages">

In Example 3-3,the last eight characters of the title are truncated. Test the text length on the Nokia SDK to ensure that the entire title appears on the screen.

■Whenever a phone number is displayed, make it possible for the user to call it.

Assign the action href="wtai://wp/mc;<phone number>" to create calls, and assign the label Call. This will not work on Nokia handsets, but users can use the Use Number functionality instead.

Example 3-4

Openwave Browser
	Andrew	Smith
	[Home: 1-408-	555-1212]
	[Work: 1-415-	555-9146]
	[Mobile: 1-	415-555-4251]

Call

Done

<a href="wtai://wp/mc;14085551212" title="Call">1-408-555-1212</a>

In Example 3-4,the user can call 1-408-555-1212 by pressing the Call softkey.

■When possible, keep the order of menu items or forms the same.

Users become familiar with the order and select items without paying much attention.

■Do not rely on font properties to convey added information.

Many phones do not support various font properties such as bold, underline, and italic.
