Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a method and system for enabling a simple and efficient method of directional arrows for the purpose of easily maneuvering throughout a contextual menu system (i.e., menus, text entry boxes, buttons, and the like) on a mobile device using limited input keys. In one embodiment, this allows a user to only require a rocker key with “directional arrows” and a select key, which is sometimes referred to as an “OK” or “Enter” key, to fully maneuver a menu and text entry system on a mobile device. This includes going forwards and backwards in the menu system tree, in addition to moving upwards and downwards in any menu list, all without needing to use any other keys. In another embodiment, this solution enables and illustrates a plurality of a-priori defined graphical pathways for the user to navigate.
