Abstract
A wireless communication device communicates with a web site over an established communication link. The device includes a controller that automatically detects whether the website provides a search engine for use by a user. If the web site provides search engine, a controller at the device configures an adaptive, context-sensitive search function of the browser to receive user input, and to perform a search based on the user input. A user interface includes a display to display the results of the search.
