  • System and method for displaying elements using a single tab
    Patent number: 7587679
    Abstract: A system and method provides a tabbed user interface in which labels may be used to select one of a plurality of data elements, but only the selected label is displayed with a tab, the other labels being displayed without a tab. Feedback, such as by underlining a label when the user hovers the mouse over it, is provided to allow the user to identify that an action will occur if one of the non-tabbed labels is clicked.
