摘要:
In at least some embodiments, a web browser user interface is designed to enable site branding and functionality. Specifically, websites can provide content that can be utilized in a control layout area near the top of the web browser user interface to reinforce branding through the use of color and/or a site-provided icon, termed a “favicon” that serves dual roles as a branding instrumentality and a site's home button. Further, in at least some embodiments, branding can be reinforced through the use of a site-associated color that is utilized for rendering one or more web browser navigation controls.
摘要:
In various embodiments, a web browser user interface includes a subset of selected controls distributed along a single line at the top of the web browser user interface. Layouts of the controls can be in a left-to-right or a right-to-left fashion. Specifically, in a left-to-right layout, selected controls meeting certain criteria can appear to the left of other controls. Similarly, in a right-to-left layout, selected controls meeting certain criteria can appear to the right of other controls. In at least some embodiments, at least some of the controls that appear distributed along the single line are controls that are related to navigation of some type. Such controls can include those that enable textual input to be provided by user.
摘要:
Various embodiments enable a web browser to promote the availability of an installable application that is associated with a website to which the web browser has been navigated. The web browser is configured to discover the availability of these applications and, responsively, provide a user experience through which the user can acquire and install such applications, as well as switch to applications that have previously been installed. Thus, through the various embodiments, a user is relieved of the burden of having to navigate to a particular application store and periodically search for applications associated with sites to which they browse.

摘要:
Various embodiments provide a unified and organized Web browser navigational experience that draws potential navigable pages from multiple different sources and presents the pages in an easily-explorable user interface. Presentation of these potentially navigable pages occurs automatically, in a contextually relevant manner, based upon an implied user intent to navigate away from a current page.
摘要:
Various embodiments provide a web browser user interface that permits users to become more fully immersed in web page content that is displayed by a web browser. The inventive approach emphasizes a “content-over-chrome” approach by providing a navigation user interface model that contextually adapts and modifies the navigation user interface based on a particular current user task. In one or more embodiments, locational modifications are made to place various browser instrumentalities, e.g. navigation instrumentalities, in locations that are selected to enhance the user experience by enabling the user to focus more easily on content-relevant portions of the display screen or device.

Various embodiments enable repetitive gestures, such as multiple serial gestures, to be implemented efficiently so as to enhance the user experience. Other embodiments provide various approaches to zoom operations that consider a particular element's contextual surroundings in making a zoom decision that is designed to enhance the user experience and provide efficiently-zoomed content given a device's or rendering container's form factor.
