Claim Text:
1. A method for controlling electronic equipment with a touching-type signal input device, comprising: receiving an inputted navigator-calling request that specifies a user request to navigate among a set of previously-opened views of at least one of web pages and applications; comparing a request mode of the inputted navigator-calling request with a predefined request mode associated with navigation among the set of previously-opened views of the at least one of web pages and applications; determining whether the request mode of the inputted navigator-calling request matches with the predefined request mode; and displaying an open-views navigator in response to determining there is a match, where the open-views navigator comprises a plurality of open-views tabs distributed on at least part of a closed structure that each allow selective navigation to at least one of a previously-opened application view and a previously-opened web page view from the set of previously-opened views; where at least one tab of the plurality of open-views tabs is an aggregation tab that represents a plurality of related open-views tabs that access one of a plurality of related previously-opened application views and a plurality of related previously-opened web page views, where an area of the aggregation tab increases as a number of the plurality of related open-views tabs represented by the aggregation tab increases responsive to additional opened related views.
