Abstract

The present invention is directed to a method, system, and computer-readable medium for providing a dynamic paging control that selects the type of paging control to be displayed for use with paged content. Paging controls are used to navigate the paged content. Paging parameters describing the number of pages to be represented by the paging control and a description of the paging control's display environment are used to select the paging control type. If the paging parameters specify a type of paging control to use, that paging control type is used. If no paging control type is specified, the dynamic paging control automatically determines a paging control type based on the paging parameters. The page and the paging control type is then presented for display.
