Abstract: A method of generating a message from dynamic online contents for inputting to an application via an inputting platform, such as a method editor (IME) or a virtual keyboard (VKB), is disclosed, wherein the method links to online contents via a command through the inputting platform and dynamically generates a new content by replacing a portion of the original content from the online content with a different content in a database if the portion of the original content matches a predefined rule, wherein the new content is sent to the input field of the application for inputting a message to the application.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for inputting data entries of a service for use with a portable electronic device having a touch screen. By detecting a continuous stroke moving on the touch screen to select desired items among multiple levels of menus which are displayed in a sequence for an object targeting to a service, the data entries according to the selected items are committed for the object when the continuous stroke ends. In addition, multiple items can be selected in one level of menu by using a pre-defined stroke indication in the continuous stroke. Furthermore, the selected items can be corrected by re-stroking back to the corresponding levels of menus.
