Abstract
A method of disregarding unintended touches applied to a handheld electronic device includes dividing a display area of a touch display into a plurality of subareas. When a touch operation is detected, the location of touch in one of the plurality of subareas is determined. A function corresponding to the operation is performed according to the one of the plurality of subareas the operation is generated in, and the method allows for simultaneous or almost simultaneous touches on other subareas being disregarded where the touches do not meet certain conditions.
