Browser Client Web Content Marking for Updated Information
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face difficulties in quickly identifying updated content on web pages due to the lack of a uniform standard for marking new content, leading to a less efficient and time-consuming browsing experience.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that utilize a browser client on a mobile terminal to preset reminder content and display styles, which acquire and mark new content semantically associated with user-defined criteria, displaying it in a conspicuous format before the page is loaded, enhancing user experience by saving time and improving content visibility.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If websites use self-defined special styles to mark new content, then new content can be distinguished from old content, but there is no uniform standard and different websites mark new contents in different ways which reduces user convenience and experience
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies universality by creating a uniform marking standard that can be applied across different websites. The marking mechanism is designed to be universally applicable to various types of content (news, posts, updates) on different web platforms, ensuring consistent user experience regardless of which website is visited. This resolves the contradiction by providing both reliable content distinction and user convenience through standardization.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses parameter changes by modifying the display parameters of content elements based on their update status. Specific visual parameters such as color, brightness, and display style are changed to indicate new content. This systematic parameter modification approach ensures uniform marking across different websites while maintaining reliable content distinction and user convenience.
2Quantity of substance
If a page contains too much information without specific compelling display style, then all content is displayed uniformly, but users cannot quickly figure out updated contents and need to slide down the page slowly which is time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies color changes as a primary marking mechanism to distinguish new content from old content. By changing the color or brightness parameters of new content elements, users can immediately identify updated information without having to read through entire pages. This resolves the contradiction by maintaining comprehensive information display while dramatically reducing the time users need to spend browsing to find updates.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by applying specific marking styles to particular content elements based on their update status. Instead of uniform display, new content receives special local treatment through distinct visual markings. This allows users to quickly identify updated portions of a page without affecting the overall information quantity, thereby reducing browsing time while maintaining complete content availability.
Data Source
AI summary
Techniques for performing marking and reminding on contents in a web page are disclosed. A browser client of a mobile terminal presets reminder content and a display style and stores the same in the mobile terminal. The method comprises: acquiring a source code of a web page; looking up the source code to obtain content to be reminded semantically associated with the preset reminder content; and marking and displaying the content to be reminded using the preset display style in the web page. The present invention marks content which concerns a user before a web page is displayed to the user after loading has finished, and marks and displays new content in a designated format using a special preset style, so that the new content is more conspicuous in a page.
