Abstract

Disclosed herein are methods and systems that allows a user, when entering a string of input characters, to remove multiples input characters at one time back to where a typographical error occurs in the string. The method offers improvement over the current character-by-character deletion method where a user hits a deletion key multiple times to remove input characters that include the typographical error.
