the game, blocking items may appear, to make it
harder for the items to connect. A blocking item will
go away only if an item next to it disappears.
Browser
W950 features the integrated Opera 8.0 browser.
The Opera browser has been designed to display
practically all Web pages on the Internet. The
browser supports the de facto HTML standard
“street HTML” (used by most Web developers),
JavaScript™, Frames, and the ability to add plug-in
applications. This means that the users can access
their favourite Web pages.
Users can quickly and easily switch between por-
trait and landscape presentation as well as change
from a normal view with scroll bars to a full screen
view. The user can use pen motions to slide the
page on the screen.
Users can select fit to screen to reformat pages to
fit inside the screen width and eliminate the need
for horizontal scrolling. (Small Screen Rendering is
supported)
Some key features:
• Tap and hold on a bookmark to display the page
in a new window.
• Tap and hold a link to view a context-sensitive
menu of alternative actions: an http: link would
give the options Open, Open in new window,
Open in background and Send as.
• Secure downloads manager that is especially
useful for downloading commercial media
objects that need to be paid for.
• Pages can be saved for offline viewing.
• All private data can be cleared with one com-
mand.
• Built-in pop-up blocking.
Browser security
W950 supports TLS/SSL to provide a secure
encrypted link between the browser and the web
site. This method is commonly used for secure
transactions on the Web. An icon in the display
indicates when a secure connection is in use.
TLS Security
When using certain Internet services the user may
require a secure connection between the phone
and the Web site, such as, when using banking
services. An icon in the display indicates when a
secure connection is used. W950 is based on the
WAP 2.0 specifications where security functionality
is specified with a technology called WAP TLS Pro
-
file (Wireless Application Protocol Transport Layer
Security).
The Internet protocols that handle the connection,
its transport and its security are structured in proto
-
col layers. The security is handled by the TLS layer
operating above the transport protocol layer. There
are three TLS classes that define the levels of secu
-
rity for a TLS connection:
• Anonymous TLS involves encryption with no
authentication.
• Server authentication involves encryption with
server authentication.
• Client authentication involves encryption with
both server and client authentication
