A touch screen text input and selection system for cell phones and computers that allows the user to select characters on a virtual keyboard for inputting, and in a text box for editing without blocking the view of characters by the touching finger. An area adjacent to and below each character displayed on the virtual keyboard or in the text box is mapped to address the respective character. The user touches the area adjacent to and below a character displayed on the virtual keyboard or in the text box to select that character. Similarly, the user can place a cursor in the space between two characters by touching the area below that space. Double tapping an area below a word in the text box selects that word. Sliding finger below a series of characters in the text box selects those characters. |
