Application Development

Whenever there is an event in the telephony application that requires the user's attention, the telephony application is brought to the foreground automatically.

The Microbrowser can be displayed again by simply pushing the Applications key. While the Microbrowser application is not displayed, it is still active and pending transactions will complete in the background and be immediately visible when the browser is brought to the foreground.

Navigation and Form Editing

The user navigates through pages by moving the focus among the focusable items with the up and down arrow keys. Focusable items include links, form elements, and buttons. The focus moves between all focusable items on a page in the order that they appear in the XHTML source, including tables. For newly displayed pages, the focus will automatically move to the first focusable item visible on the current page.

When the user has focused on a link that they would like to follow, or a form element they would like to toggle, they press the Select key. This will either generate a request for the linked page or toggle the selection of an element in the form. When the focus moves to fields which are editable, the user may simply enter text at will, then move the focus to the next selectable item when complete using the up and down arrow keys. If there is a large area of the page without a focusable element, the page is only scrolled by one screen for each push of the arrow key.

To submit form data, navigate to and select a submit button on the page or press the Submit soft key when available.

The Back soft key takes the user to the previous page viewed. The left arrow key performs a similar function unless the user is editing a text field. The Refresh and Home soft keys behave in the expected manner, reloading the current page and returning to the user's home page respectively.

Text is entered into text boxes using the dial pad through the same entry method used elsewhere on the phone. When editing text, a soft key allows the user to cycle through uppercase letter, lowercase letter or numeric entry modes. A Cancel soft key is available to undo the current edits.

Idle Display Microbrowser

The idle display Microbrowser is independent of the main Microbrowser, but is capable of rendering the same content. Its home page is configured via the mb.idleDisplay.home configuration parameter. The idle display Microbrowser does not accept any user input and will only appear when the user has no phone calls in progress and the phone is in the idle user interface state. The idle display Microbrowser can update its content based on a configurable refresh timer or by honoring the value of the Refresh header.
