An icon associated with content (e.g., webpage content) is created on a mobile device. In one implementation, the content is displayed on the mobile device and an indication is received to create an icon associated with the content. All or a portion of the content is rendered into the icon, and the icon is displayed on a user interface of the mobile device.

Icon creation on mobile device

One or more touch input signals can be obtained from a touch sensitive device. A touch event model can be used to determine touch and/or gesture events based on the touch input signals. The touch and gesture events can be associated with touch input signals generated from different regions of a web page displayed on the touch sensitive device. Access can be provided to at least one touch or gesture event through a programming interface.

Touch event model for web pages

A method includes receiving a document from a server, where the document includes an embedded script. The method also includes rendering and displaying the document at an electronic device and executing the embedded script. The method furthermore includes establishing a touchevent interface object that includes a plurality of touchlists, and upon detecting one or more touches on the touch-sensitive surface, updating the touchevent interface object with touch data, including values in two or more of the touchlists. The method includes further executing the embedded script in accordance with the values in at least one of the two or more touchlists.

Touch event model programming interface

A method includes receiving a touch event, where the touch event includes a plurality of touch lists. The plurality of touch lists includes one or more of: a first touch list for one or more touches associated with a target of the touch event, a second touch list for one or more changed touches, and a third touch list for all touches detected on a touch-sensitive surface. The method includes processing the touch event.

One or more touch input signals can be obtained from a touch sensitive device. If the touch input signals are associated with one or more regions of a web page displayed on the touch sensitive device, a touch event associated with the regions of a web page is processed by the web page. Otherwise, the touch events can be processed by an application (e.g., a browser).
