Internet connection through mobile web has been abruptly increased with the recent universalities of smart phone and tablet PC. On the other hand, it might be more difficult to have free surfing internet, smoothly running mobile web and/or easily approaching various mobile sites because there are a lot of domestic web sites that do not keep the web standard. They just seem to obey various performing capabilities and outfit design. This will be the main reason of decreasing usability and accessibility when tablet PCs and mobile terminals are connecting to the Internet. In this paper, we propose a novel method of mobile web interface to improve its usability and accessibility optimized for mobile environment. Our interface tool can be easily used by industrial or individual users to access various web sites through tablet PC's or other mobile communication media. Applying the proposed interface to a company web site, which is the final focus of this paper, we prove its advanced performance and increased usability. And then we offer this new direction of user interface design to the developers of industrial or individual mobile web sites.
