Abstract
A system and method for scrolling a display screen, a mobile terminal including the system, and a recording medium storing a program for executing the method. The system includes an input unit which receives input information according to a key input operation, a display unit which displays items grouped according to a predetermined criterion, and a controller which controls the display unit to display selected items by scrolling the grouped items on a group-by-group basis, in response to the received input information. Accordingly, since a group-based scroll operation can be performed by grouping items displayed on a display screen, items can be efficiently searched for without a separate hierarchical screen change in a situation where the size of a display screen is limited, such as when using a mobile communication terminal.
