Navigating in Siebel Wireless

This topic covers the Siebel Wireless Threadbar and the Siebel Wireless Previous button.

Siebel Wireless Threadbar

The Siebel threadbar tracks user navigation and allows reverse navigation from the current view to any previous view. The threadbar element allows users to navigate through the application faster, while always moving 'forward' through the application. The threadbar element is supported out-of-the-box for both one column and two column UIs. To preserve space, the threadbar in Wireless is presented as a drop-down list rather than a hyperlink. The drop-down list displays the previous threads in reverse chronological order, with the oldest thread displayed at the top.

Siebel Wireless Previous Button

The PreEnabled user agent capability is used to enable the Previous button for backwards navigation. For two column UIs it is recommended to use the Wireless application's Previous button rather than the browser's Back button, as there have been caching and other issues in the past when using the browser back button with Wireless applications. To enable the Previous button refer to Configuring Siebel Wireless.
