A method of displaying tab titles in a computer user interface receives a request to display a new tab in a tab area having a length. The new tab has a width and the new tab has a title having a length. The method determines a number of tabs to be displayed in the area and determines if the number of tabs to be displayed multiplied by the tab width is greater than the length of the tab area. If so, the method sets the tab width equal to the length of the tab area divided by the number of tabs. The method determines if the length of the title is greater than the tab width. If so, the method determines if the title has any words in common with any other titles of tabs. If so, the method deletes the common words from the titles, and displays the titles with the deleted common words in the tabs. The method may set a maximum number of tabs to be displayed in the tab area. The maximum number of tabs may be determined by the length of the tab area and a minimum tab width. If the number of tabs is greater than the maximum number of tabs is to be displayed, the method collapses some of the tabs in to a tab of tabs.

A parser for parsing text includes a tokenizing module which divides the text into an ordered sequence of linguistic tokens. A morphological module associates parts of speech with the linguistic tokens. A detection module identifies candidate titles of creative works, such as works of art. A filtering module filters the candidate titles of works to exclude citations of direct speech from the candidate titles of works. A comparison module compares any remaining candidate titles of works with titles of works in an associated knowledge base. The comparison module annotates the text when a match is found.

A menu displaying apparatus and method in a portable terminal are provided. In the menu displaying apparatus, a select image buffer stores select images, and an unselect image buffer stores unselect images. A controller reads a select image for a selected menu from the select image buffer, displays the select image together with a title text of the selected menu at a predetermined position in a menu region, reads unselect menu images for unselected menus from the unselect image buffer, and displays the unselect menu images together with title texts of the unselected menus at predetermined positions in the menu region.

The present invention is directed at a system and process for allowing a user to treat email addresses as objects. This allows easy manipulation of the email addresses, such as allowing them to be added to a contact list, copied to the computer's clipboard, or double-clicked to open the related contact information for that email address' sender. Email addresses are treated as objects in the message preview pane and full message windows of both incoming and outgoing email messages. A small icon is added to the text of each address. In a preferred embodiment, the icons will vary depending on the pedigree of the address. The invention is not limited to single addresses. Rather, an entry denoting a mailing list could also be treated as an object and a unique icon could be employed to indicate the nature of the entry. For outgoing messages, the pedigree of the address or list is determined by monitoring where the user obtained the address. For incoming messages, the message header is parsed and searched to find addresses that match the receiving user's address book. If no match is found, a generic address icon is added before the text of the address, while the system checks the email header against other address sources such as server lists. Once the address is marked with an appropriate icon the user can manipulate the address in various ways allowing the user to readily edit or add email addresses to their contact list. Additionally, the invention may include contextual menus to assist the user in this manipulation.

Methods and systems provide a “chart view” for a markup language referred to as Reusable Data Markup Language (“RDML”). Generally, a chart view comprises the components necessary for automatically manipulating and displaying a graphical display of numerical data contained in RDML markup documents. RDML is a markup language, such as the Hypertext Markup Language (“HTML”) or the Extensible Markup Language (“XML”). Generally, RDML facilitates the browsing and manipulation of numbers, as opposed to text as in HTML, and does so by requiring attributes describing the meaning of the numbers to be attached to the numbers. Upon receiving RDML markup documents, the chart view transforms, formats, manipulates and displays data stored in the markup documents using the attributes describing the meaning of the data. The chart view uses the attributes of the numbers to, for example, facilitate the simultaneous display of different series of numbers of different types on a single chart and automatically display appropriate axis labels, axis titles, chart titles, number precision, etc. A chart view may be a component of a data viewer used to retrieve, manipulate, and view documents in the RDML format.

A grammar generation process generates a speech recognition grammar for interpreting search queries or a domain of items. The grammar comprises both single-term and multi-term utterances derived from the texts of the items (preferably the item titles). The utterances are derived in-part by expanding phrases selected from the item text into their individual terms plus all forward combinations of such terms. The forward combinations and individual terms that are deemed not useful to the search process are filtered out of the grammar. The process tends to produce a grammar containing the utterances that are most likely to occur within voice queries for the items, while maintaining a grammar size that is sufficiently small to provide reliable speech recognition.

A method for determining a logical structure of a document. At least one candidate table of contents page of the document is determined, wherein the table of contents page comprises a plurality of table of contents words. The document comprises at least one table of contents page and a plurality of body pages, wherein at least one body page comprises a plurality of body words. A dictionary is built for the candidate table of contents page, the dictionary comprising at least one table of contents word. One body page is analyzed for at least one text match between the plurality of body words and the table of contents words of the dictionary. Based on an evaluation the text match, it is determined whether the body page is a title page.
