Solution Overview

Problem

Existing hyperlink technologies are limited in their ability to satisfy diverse user demands as they do not allow for different instructions or events to be generated when the same hyperlink object is interacted with, resulting in a lack of flexibility in redirecting or displaying associated pages.

Innovation Solution

A method and device for processing hyperlink objects that determine the existence of predetermined events, such as keyboard or mouse events, to redirect or display different associated pages or simplified pages, allowing for varied user interactions by receiving operation instructions and using modules to redirect to target pages or display pages in floating windows based on these events.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If a simple hyperlink mode is used where clicking a hyperlink object opens a corresponding hyperlink target, then the system is easy to operate and understand, but it cannot satisfy diversified user demands and lacks flexibility

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehyperlink operation simplicityVSAvoiduser demand satisfaction
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The hyperlink processing method dynamically determines the target page based on the combination of operation instruction and predetermined event. When a user clicks a hyperlink object, the system checks for accompanying predetermined events (such as keyboard events) and redirects to different associated pages accordingly, making the hyperlink behavior adaptive rather than static

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the routing parameter (target page) based on the event combination. By detecting whether a predetermined event exists alongside the operation instruction, the system selects different target pages (original hyperlink target vs. associated page), effectively using parameter changes to achieve diversified functionality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Stability of the object's composition

If the system always redirects to the same hyperlink target when a hyperlink object is clicked, then the behavior is consistent and predictable, but it cannot generate different instructions to point to different hyperlink targets based on user context

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehyperlink behavior consistencyVSAvoidcontext-aware routing
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system introduces an intermediary check (predetermined event detection) between the click operation and target page redirection. This intermediary mechanism allows the system to maintain the basic hyperlink function while adding context-aware routing capabilities through event combination detection

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The hyperlink object gains multi-functionality by responding differently to different event combinations. The same hyperlink object can redirect to the original target page for simple clicks or to associated pages when combined with predetermined events, making it universally applicable to multiple user scenarios

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

An operation instruction for a hyperlink object is received. The hyperlink object is associated with a hyperlink. A determination is made as to whether a predetermined event exists when the operation instruction is received. The predetermined event is different from the operation instruction. In response to determining that the predetermined event does not exist when the operation instruction is received, a first page corresponding to the hyperlink is redirected to. In response to determining that the predetermined event exists when the operation instruction is received, a second page associated with the predetermined event is determined, and the second page is redirected to. The second page is different from, and associated with, the first page.
