A microbrowser in a mobile communications device generates a Graphical User Interface (GUI) including features that make the device more user-friendly. These features address problems associated with a device that has relatively few input keys and restrictive functionality for cursor movement and pointing, such as a two-arrow key device. The GUI features include: a combined browser-application menu that includes a dismiss bar and browser options represented by horizontally placed icons; a separate browser menu accessible from the title bar of a displayed screen; an auto-jump feature that automatically highlights the next actionable control after a control has been edited; a control-sensitive softkey menu on the secondary softkey that changes according to the control currently in use; table navigation that allows more efficient navigation through table or calendar entries using two arrow keys; and a non-scrollable header with actionable controls.
