The front-end server carries out a management to the user interface and generates, alters, deletes, manages or transfers the user interface which is corresponding to the user according to the instruction sent by the terminal. The invention also provides a user interface management method based on the digital television user interface management system. The method supports the user-defined user interface and provides a personality service for the user without needing trough a way of uniformly exchanging a turning-on page layout, thus causing more characteristics to the user interface including the turning-on page layout, more conforming the personality requirement of the user as well as possessing a simple and convenient operation; The invention shields a difference of a set-top box. The realization of simplifying the set-top box reduces the operation cost; the invention provides a method of defining the user interface through a plurality of methods such as a network for the user.
