Abstract

The notion of intelligent split menu for web browser is to demonstrate the experimental domain model that is associated with a user interface to improve data entry. A split menu becomes popular recently in computer application. Now, it is extended into the web browser for data entry purposes. The objective of this study is to investigate on user perception of integrating intelligent split menu on web browser data entry. Therefore, a prototype web browser model is used to embed the web browser model with a data model in order to gather feedback on the user perceptions. Results were mainly positive, as many are keen on the idea of having split menu and integrating it on the web browser. It shows how a web browser can be enhanced to be more useful to the users.
