In order to facilitate understanding of the description, the same components and steps in each drawing are denoted by the same reference numerals as much as possible, and duplicated descriptions will be omitted.

[0016] <Webpage summary> FIG. 1A is a diagram showing an example of a case where a video 10 is displayed on a web page 1 according to the present embodiment. FIG. 1B is a diagram showing an example of a case where a content 13A is displayed on a web page 1 according to the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, the web page 1 has an area A1 on the screen, and an area A2 is provided below the area A1. The positions of the areas A1 and A2 on the screen are not limited to those shown in FIG. 1A. The areas A1 and A2 may be arranged upside down, arranged left and right, or provided separately, or an area other than the areas A1 and A2 may be provided on the screen.

[0017] The area A1 is an area in the web page 1 where the video 10 and any of the contents 13A to 13Z associated with the tags 11A to 11Z displayed on the video 10 are displayed. The area A1 also accepts operations such as pressing by the user. When the user performs an operation such as pressing the tag 11A with a finger or clicking with a mouse pointer while the video 10 is being displayed and controlled, the display control of the video 10 is stopped, and the contents 13A to 13Z associated with the tag 11A are displayed and controlled as shown in FIG. 1B. The area A1 also has a cart view button 14 at the top right for confirming and paying for products set as items to be purchased. When the cart view button 14 is operated, the display control of the video 10 is stopped, and the web page 1 transitions to a purchase page for confirming and paying for products set as items to be purchased.

[0018] Area A2 is an area on web page 1 where operation objects 12 are provided for performing operations such as playing, stopping, rewinding, fast-forwarding, skipping, changing the playback time point, adjusting the volume, and adjusting the screen size of video 10.

[0019] 1B, a description will be given of content 13A whose display is controlled when an operation is performed on tag 11A. Content 13A is content such as a pop-up tag associated with tag 11A, and includes, for example, a product image 131, a text box 132, a stop button 133, and a purchase button 134.

[0020] The product image 131 is an image related to the product that is previously associated with the tag 11A. The text box 132 is an object for displaying information and an explanation about the product that is previously associated with the tag 11A. The stop button 133 is a button for stopping the display control of the content 13A. The purchase button 134 is a button for setting the product that is previously associated with the tag 11A as a purchase target and adding it to the cart.

[0021] When the content 13A is under display control in the area A1, the display control of the content 13A is continued or stopped based on an operation performed on the content 13A, and the display control of the video 10 is resumed or remains stopped. Next, the display control of the content 13A and the video 10 in response to an operation on the content 13A will be described.

[0022] <Branch I: Close popup> When the stop button 133 is selected by pressing or clicking, the display control of the content 13A in the area A1 is stopped, and the display control of the video 10 in the area A1 is resumed.

[0023] <Branch II: Add item to cart> When the purchase button 134 is selected by pressing or clicking, one product associated with the content 13A is set as a purchase target and added to the cart. Then, the display control of the content 13A in the area A1 is stopped, and the display control of the video 10 in the area A1 is resumed.

[0024] <Branch III: Transition to another video> When the product image 131 is selected by, for example, pressing or clicking, the display control of the content 13A in the area A1 is stopped, and a video different from the video 10 in the area A1 is displayed and controlled in the area A1. In branch III, the video displayed and controlled in the area A1 is a video associated with the product associated with the content 13A.

[0025] <Branch IV: Transition to an external web page> When text box 132 is selected, for example by pressing or clicking, display control of content 13A in area A1 is maintained, a new tab different from the tab in which web page 1 is being displayed is created, and a web page different from web page 1 is displayed and controlled in the newly created tab.

[0026] The operations that are the conditions for performing the processes of branches I to IV are merely examples, and any operations may be used as long as they are different from each other.

[0027] <Hardware configuration> Next, a description will be given of a hardware configuration of the information processing device 2 for displaying the web page 1. Fig. 2 is a diagram showing an example of a hardware configuration of the information processing device 2 according to this embodiment. As shown in Fig. 2, the information processing device 2 is mainly configured to include, for example, a storage device 21, a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 22, a memory 23, a communication device 24, and an input / output device 25.

[0028] The storage device 21 is configured with a hard disk, etc. This storage device 21 stores various programs and various information required for the execution of processing in the CPU 22, and information on the results of processing.

[0029] The CPU 22 functions as various functional components by executing predetermined programs stored in the memory 23 or the storage device 21, etc. The details of these functional components will be described later.

[0030] The communication device 24 is configured with a communication interface for communicating with an external device, etc. The communication device 24 transmits and receives various information to and from a terminal of a user who browses the web page 1, for example.

[0031] The input / output device 25 receives inputs for an operator of the information processing device 2 to operate the information processing device 2, and displays information provided by the information processing device 2 to the operator.

[0032] The information processing device 2 can be realized by using a dedicated or general-purpose server computer, etc. The information processing device 2 may be configured by a single device, or may be configured by multiple devices distributed over a communication network. Fig. 2 shows only a part of the main hardware configuration of the information processing device 2, and the information processing device 2 may be configured by other components that are generally included in a computer.

[0033] <Functional configuration> Fig. 3 is a block diagram showing an example of a functional configuration of the information processing device 2 according to the present embodiment. As shown in Fig. 3, the information processing device 2 includes, as functional configurations, for example, a first display control unit 210, a second display control unit 220, a third display control unit 230, an operation acquisition unit 240, and a storage unit 250. The functional configurations other than the storage unit 250 are realized by the CPU 22 executing a program stored in the storage device 21 or the like.

[0034] The first display control unit 210 controls the display of the video 10 and tags 11A to 11Z in the area A1 on the screen. Furthermore, when the tags 11A to 11Z are operated, the first display control unit 210 stops the display control of the video 10. Furthermore, when any of the contents 13A to 13Z is display-controlled in the area A1, the first display control unit 210 resumes the display control of the video 10 in response to acquisition of a predetermined operation by the operation acquisition unit 240. Furthermore, when the operation object 12 is operated by the user, the first display control unit 210 performs display control on the video 10 in response to the operation out of display controls such as play, stop, rewind, fast-forward, skip, transition of the playback time point, and adjustment of the screen size. In controlling the display of the video 10, the first display control unit 210 refers to the tag information 251A to 251Z stored in the storage unit 250, and controls the display of the tags 11A to 11Z on the video 10 according to the information indicated by the tag information 251A to 251Z.

[0035] When the tags 11A-11Z whose display is controlled in the area A1 are operated, the second display control unit 220 controls the display of the contents 13A-13Z associated with the operated tags 11A-11Z in the area A1. The second display control unit 220 continues or stops the display control of the contents 13A-13Z according to the operation acquired by the operation acquisition unit 240. Note that, when the operation acquired by the operation acquisition unit 240 is a predetermined operation, the second display control unit 220 stops the display control of the contents 13A-13Z. The predetermined operation is, for example, the selection of the stop button 133, the selection of the purchase button 134, the selection of the product image 131, or the like.

[0036] When the tags 11A-11Z whose display is controlled in the area A1 are operated, the third display control unit 230 controls the display of a webpage different from the webpage 1 including the video 10, based on the operation acquired by the operation acquisition unit 240. When controlling the display of a webpage different from the webpage 1, the third display control unit 230 newly generates a tab different from the tab in which the webpage 1 is controlled to be displayed, and controls the display of the webpage different from the webpage 1 in the generated tab. The third display control unit 230 also controls the display of objects included in the webpage 1, other than the video 10, the tags 11A-11Z, and the contents 13A-13Z.

[0037] The operation acquisition unit 240 acquires operations for the tags 11A to 11Z and operations for the contents 13A to 13Z. Specifically, when the video 10 is under display control in the area A1, the operation acquisition unit 240 acquires operations for the tags 11A to 11Z displayed on the video 10. Furthermore, when the second display control unit 220 is under display control of the contents 13A to 13Z in the area A1, the operation acquisition unit 240 acquires operations for the contents 13A to 13Z under display control. The operation acquisition unit 240 determines what type of operation the acquired operation is, and transmits the determination result to the first display control unit 210, the second display control unit 220, and the third display control unit 230.

[0038] The storage unit 250 has a functional configuration for storing the web page 1, the video 10, tag information 251A-251Z, the contents 13A-13Z, etc. The web page 1, the video 10, and the contents 13A-13Z have already been described with reference to Figures 1A and 1B, and therefore description thereof will be omitted.

[0039] The tag information 251A-251Z is information about tags 11A-11Z whose display is controlled together with the video 10. The tag information 251A-251Z includes information such as the shape of the tags 11A-11Z, their movement on the video 10, their display start time when they start to be displayed on the video 10, their display end time when they end to be displayed on the video 10, their correspondence with the contents 13A-13Z, their correspondence with the product image 131, and the like.

[0040] <Process flow> The functional configuration of the information processing device 2 has been described above. Next, a series of processing flows of the information processing device 2 will be described in detail. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing an example of the processing flow when the information processing device 2 according to this embodiment displays the web page 1. Note that FIG. 4 shows, as an example, the processing flow when an operation corresponding to branch I is performed on tag 11A when the information processing device 2 according to this embodiment displays the web page 1.

[0041] (Step SP10) The information processing device 2 controls the display of the web page 1 by the third display control unit 230. Furthermore, the information processing device 2 controls the display of the video 10 together with the tag 11A in the area A1 of the web page 1 by the first display control unit 210. Then, the process proceeds to step SP12.

[0042] (Step SP12) The information processing device 2 determines whether or not the tag 11A has been operated by pressing, clicking, or the like, using the operation acquisition unit 240. If the determination is positive, the process proceeds to step SP14. If the determination is negative, the process proceeds to step SP24.

[0043] (Step SP14) The information processing device 2 stops the display control of the video 10 in the area A1 by the first display control section 210. Then, the process proceeds to step SP16.

[0044] (Step SP16) The information processing device 2 controls the display of the content 13A corresponding to the operated tag 11A in the area A1 by the second display control section 220. Then, the process proceeds to step SP18.

[0045] (Step SP18) The information processing device 2 determines whether or not an operation of selecting the stop button 133, which is an operation corresponding to branch I, has been performed on the content 13A whose display is controlled in the area A1 by the operation acquisition unit 240. If the determination is positive, the process proceeds to step SP20. If the determination is negative, the process repeats step SP18.

[0046] (Step SP20) The information processing device 2 stops the display control of the content 13A in the area A1 by the second display control section 220. Then, the process proceeds to step SP22.

[0047] (Step SP22) The information processing device 2 resumes display control of the video 10 in the area A1 by the first display control section 210. Then, the process proceeds to step SP24.

[0048] (Step SP24) The information processing device 2 determines, by the third display control unit 230, whether or not the user has left the web page 1. Specifically, the information processing device 2 determines, by the third display control unit 230, whether or not the user has closed the web page 1 or transitioned to another web page different from the web page 1. If the determination is a negative determination, the process returns to the process of step SP12, and if the determination is a positive determination, the series of processes shown in FIG. 4 ends.

[0049] <Effects> As described above, in this embodiment, the program causes the information processing device 2 (computer) to function as a first display control unit 210 that controls the display of video 10 and tags 11A-11B displayed on video 10 in area A1 (predetermined area) on the screen and stops display control of video 10 when tags 11A-11Z are operated, and a second display control unit 220 that controls the display of contents 13A-13Z associated with tags 11A-11Z in area A1 when tags 11A-11Z are operated.

[0050] Thereby, when the tags 11A-11Z are operated, the program controls the display of the contents 13A-13Z associated with the tags 11A-11. Therefore, in controlling the display of the video 10 including the tags 11A-11Z, the program can perform display control suitable for the operation on the tags 11A-11Z.

[0051] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the program causes the information processing device 2 to function as an operation acquisition unit 240 that acquires an operation for the contents 13A to 13Z when the second display control unit 220 is controlling the display of the contents 13A to 13Z in the area A1. Furthermore, the second display control unit 220 continues or stops the display control of the contents 13A to 13Z based on the operation acquired by the operation acquisition unit 240.

[0052] Therefore, in controlling the display of the contents 13A to 13Z, the program can perform display control suitable for an operation performed on the content 13A.

[0053] Furthermore, in this embodiment, when the operation acquired by the operation acquisition unit 240 is a predetermined operation, the second display control unit 220 stops the display control of the contents 13A to 13Z.

[0054] Therefore, in the display control of the contents 13A to 13Z, when it is desired to stop the display control of the contents 13A to 13Z, the program stops the display control of the contents 13A to 13Z in response to an operation on the contents 13A to 13Z, so that it is possible to intuitively control whether to continue or stop the display control of the contents 13A to 13Z.

[0055] Furthermore, in this embodiment, when the operation acquired by the operation acquisition section 240 is a predetermined operation, the first display control section 210 resumes the display control of the video 10 in the area A1.

[0056] Therefore, the program can control the display of the video 10 again after controlling the display of the contents 13A to 13Z in the area A1, so that the display control of the video 10 and the contents 13A to 13Z can be intuitively switched.

[0057] In addition, in this embodiment, the program causes the information processing device 2 to function as a third display control unit 230 that controls the display of a web page different from the web page 1 including the video 10, based on the operation acquired by the operation acquisition unit 240.

[0058] Therefore, the program can intuitively control the display of the video 10 and the contents 13 to 13Z while controlling the display of a web page different from the web page 1.

[0059] <Modification> The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment. In other words, the above-described embodiment may be modified by a person skilled in the art as appropriate, and the modifications may be included within the scope of the present invention as long as they include the characteristics of the present invention. In addition, the elements of the above-described embodiment and the modifications described below may be combined to the extent technically possible, and the combinations of these may be included within the scope of the present invention as long as they include the characteristics of the present invention.

[0060] For example, in the present embodiment, when the operation acquiring unit 240 acquires a selection operation of the stop button 133 in a state in which the contents 13A to 13Z are under display control in the area A1, the operation acquiring unit 240 determines that the acquired operation corresponds to branch I, but is not limited to this. For example, the operation acquiring unit 240 may determine that a flip operation in the up / down or left / right direction on the contents 13A to 13Z corresponds to branch I.

[0061] According to this configuration, the program obtains a flip operation on the contents 13A to 13Z as an operation corresponding to branch I, and therefore, it is possible to intuitively and easily perform an operation for controlling the display of the contents 13A to 13Z.

[0062] In addition, in this embodiment, when the operation acquisition unit 240 acquires a selection operation of the product image 131 in a state in which the contents 13A to 13Z are controlled to be displayed in the area A1, the operation acquisition unit 240 determines that the acquired operation is an operation corresponding to branch III, but is not limited to this. For example, the operation acquisition unit 240 may determine that a pressing operation on the product image 131 for a predetermined time or longer, a selection of the text box 132, or a pressing operation on the text box 132 for a predetermined time or longer is an operation corresponding to branch III.

[0063] According to this configuration, the program obtains various operations on the product image 131 and the text box 132 as operations on the branch III, so that the display control operations of the contents 13A to 13Z can be performed intuitively and easily.

[0064] In addition, in this embodiment, when the operation acquisition unit 240 acquires a selection operation of the text box 132 in a state in which the contents 13A to 13Z are controlled to be displayed in the area A1, the operation acquisition unit 240 determines that the acquired operation is an operation corresponding to branch IV, but is not limited to this. For example, the operation acquisition unit 240 may determine that a pressing operation on the product image 131 for a predetermined time or longer, a selection of the text box 132, or a pressing operation on the text box 132 for a predetermined time or longer is an operation corresponding to branch IV.

[0065] According to this configuration, the program obtains various operations on the product image 131 and the text box 132 as operations on the branch IV, so that the display control operations of the contents 13A to 13Z can be performed intuitively and easily. [Explanation of symbols]
