Abstract: A method at an electronic device including a user input device, the method comprising: receiving data comprising displayable content and data indicating that touch events corresponding to a pattern of multiple touches are to be detected in order to display the displayable content; upon detecting touch events corresponding to the pattern of multiple touches, displaying the displayable content; and ceasing to display the displayable content once the touch events corresponding to the pattern of multiple touches are no longer detected.

Abstract: There is provided a method in an electronic device having a display and means for receiving user input, the method comprising detecting a user input directed at an item displayed on a display and determining whether the user input is a first user input or a second user input, wherein the first user input is different in at least one respect from the second user input. If the item is linked to one or more additional items and the detected user input is the first user input, the method comprises selecting the item and the one or more additional items as a group of items, for performing an action on the group of items. If the detected user input is the second user input, the method comprises selecting the item for performing the action on the item and no other item. There is also provided an electronic device comprising processing circuitry which is configured to carry out the method.

Abstract: The invention relates to end user controlled handling of personal data on e.g. the Internet. Web services are offered in a controlled manner from a service broker (250) provided with appropriate security mechanisms. The broker contains end user controlled policies related to personal data/services, while the actual data is arranged at different locations in the network. Web service information is published in an open registry (256) at the broker. When an application provider (220) finds a desired service in the registry, its service request is guided to the appropriate service broker. The broker returns the policy for the requested service, whereafter the service provider (240) can be contacted, preferably through an encapsulated SOAP message. A preferred embodiment performs common sign on authentication when a new application is contacted.
