Hereinafter, a connection method of a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described. In particular, a web site connection method of a mobile terminal connected to a specific web site in connection with a shortcut key will be described.

5 is a flowchart illustrating a method of accessing a web site of a mobile terminal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. The mobile terminal 100 can access a specific web site even in an idle state, and can move to another web site while accessing a specific web site. The idle state refers to a state in which the terminal can operate but does not operate. That is, it refers to the waiting time for input and output.

If a specific shortcut key and a browsing key are inputted in the idle state (S10, S20), the control unit 180 can access the website linked to the shortcut key (S30).

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a specific hot key and a specific web site can be registered in association with each other. For example, the numeric key "1" may be registered with "http://www.naver.com/" and the numeric key "2" may be registered with "http://www.yahoo.com/" have. A detailed description thereof will be described later.

A browsing key is a key for accessing the Internet. Accordingly, when the browsing key is input in the idle state, the control unit 180 may attempt to access the Internet and display an initial website connection screen. Upon receiving the browsing key input in the idle state, the control unit 180 can display the screen connected to the "Naver " The control unit 180 may set or change the initial access website at the time of inputting the browsing key by the user.

In addition, the specific shortcut key and the data registered in association with the specific web site can be stored in the memory 160. [

Meanwhile, the mobile terminal 100 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention can move to a specific web site using a specific hot key even during web browsing.

That is, if a specific hot key and a browsing key are inputted during the web browsing (S10, S40, S50), the controller 180 can move to the web site associated with the hot key (S60). Web browsing refers to browsing information by accessing the Internet to search for specific information and moving the site to the site. During browsing, the user is connected to a specific web site. In this case, since you are already connected to the Internet, there is no need to input a separate browsing key when moving to another site.

Hereinafter, a method of accessing a specific web site by the method shown in FIG. 5 will be described in more detail.

6 is a diagram showing an example of accessing a specific web site using the shortcut key in the idle state.

6A shows a state in which a specific shortcut key is input in the idle state. If a browsing key is input while a specific hot key is input, a screen as shown in FIG. 6B is displayed. The screen shown in Fig. 6B shows a screen connected to the website registered in association with the number "1 ".

According to the above method, a specific web site can be easily accessed by a shortcut key and a browsing key input. And the association registration of the shortcut key and the specific website can be preset by the user.

Further, according to the embodiment of the present invention, a specific phrase and a specific web site can be registered in association with each other for convenience of storage. For example, "Naver" can be registered in association with "http://www.naver.com/". In this case, if the phrase "Naver " and the browsing key are input in the idle state, the control unit 180 can display the screen as shown in FIG. 6B.

7 is a view showing an example of moving to a specific web site during web browsing.

7A shows a screen connected to a specific website. If a specific shortcut key is input in this state, the control unit 180 moves to another website linked to the inputted shortcut key (FIG. 7B). For example, when the number key "2" is input in a state of being connected to the first web site, the user can move to the second web site. FIG. 7B shows a connection screen of a website linked with the inputted shortcut key.

In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the distinction between a shortcut key for moving to a specific site during web browsing or a simple numeric input key can be divided into a long key and a short key. For example, when the long key of the number key "2 " is input while being connected to the first web site, the control unit 180 recognizes the long key as a key signal for moving the website, When a key is input, it can be recognized as a simple numeric input.
