Abstract: The disclosed architecture allows markup language (e.g., HTML) pages to facilitate the insertion of content (e.g., text) into an application to which an input method is attached. In this way, a plug-in developer can implement any UI look and behavior using a web page language (e.g., HTML), communicate with a backend datasource just as a regular HTML page, and perform this using any suitable technology. Since the web page is stored in a web server and downloaded to client on-the-fly, install is minimal and users can use the latest version automatically. A broker component receives data derived from code authored in the programming language and embedded in a markup language and provides the additional arbitrary data to the application.

Abstract: A mobile terminal apparatus includes a casing in which a circuit board, a battery pack, and a power receptor are provided. A power feeder is provided in the battery pack and is connected to the power receptor. Terminal plates, with each having one end held on one surface which is included in the power receptor, and having two widest surfaces which are parallel to each other, one of which faces and is parallel to one of two widest surfaces of an adjacent terminal plate. The terminal plates are aligned along a direction orthogonal to the two widest surfaces. A flexible circuit board includes a flexible bendable portion provided along the direction in which the terminal plates are aligned and connects the circuit board to the power receptor.

Abstract: In a communication antenna unit which is stored inside a casing, a flexible circuit board is supported by a support member in a bent state. A first antenna conductor pattern which configures a first communication antenna and a human body sensor are substantially formed on a flat plane section of the flexible circuit board adjacent to a curved section of the flexible circuit board. A second antenna conductor pattern which configures a second communication antenna is substantially formed on the curved section. The first antenna conductor pattern and the second antenna conductor pattern are connected to each other through an inductor coil which configures a resonant circuit portion.
