An electronic publication and methods and components thereof including a user interface. The electronic publication can be provided by e-mail or similar transmission add contains its own executable file for presentation of the publication without a user requiring a preloaded application software. The electronic publication addresses the processor for calculation and the operating system for increased functionality to minimize the size of the executable file and the publication as a whole. The publication contains a user interface incorporating a page-turn and provides a non-linear travel of the free edge of the tog page across a revealing page so as to imitate a substantially constant rotation of the page. The animation sequence throughout the page-turn is performed on the basis of actual elapsed time since commencement of the animation rather than at predetermined intervals so as to make the individual steps throughout the animation independent of the processor speed. The page-turn also incorporates a 3 -dimensional representation by increasingly stretching the vertical axis of the rotating edge of the page as it approaches the central axis of rotation of the page. |
