Abstract: A method is provided for selecting a region of interest in an electronic document and displaying the selected region in a manner that is adapted to the capabilities of a display. The method may comprise such steps as loading a document, selecting a position within said document, analyzing the layout of the document in order to identify a region of interest containing said position, and displaying said region of interest on said display in a manner that aligns the region of interest with a window of said display. Also described is a device configured to perform the method and a computer program product including instructions for performing the method on a computing device.

Abstract: The present invention is directed toward a computer implemented method and device for providing a user with easy access to a plurality of frequently accessed data resources, including at least one web application. The invention provides a user agent (e.g., web browser) in which graphical representations, which are associated with the data resources, are displayed within particular locations of a window. A user invocable instruction (e.g., mouse click or a particular keystroke combination) may be associated with each of the graphical representations and their respective locations in the window. Accordingly, a user invocable instruction may be associated with the window location associated with a particular web application, thereby triggering an event in the application which in turn, e.g., can cause the user agent to retrieve a related data resource.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to render markup documents within the limits of resolutions smaller than the resolutions for which the markup documents were originally designed, in most cases without introducing horizontal scrolling, while keeping the original fonts, colors, design, and style. The object is achieved by finding and selecting elements whose content takes up too much space horizontally, determining appropriate widths for rendering such elements, and shrinking or horizontally squeezing such elements individually to fit within their respective determined widths. Further, the invention determines the widths for rendering table cells in such manner as to preserve the layout of the corresponding table.
