Abstract :
Cellular phones are widely used to access the Web. However, most available Web pages are designed for desktop PCs, and it is inconvenient to browse these large Web pages on a cellular phone with a small screen and poor interfaces. Users who carry cellular phones browse Web pages in various situations. Therefore, appropriate browsing styles are different based on their situations. In this paper, we propose a novel Web browsing system called nine-button browsing system, in which numerical keys of cellular phone have different functions for presenting Web pages. This system enables users to browse Web pages comfortably adapting their situations
