The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for providing a wireless web page, and more particularly, to a method and apparatus for providing a wireless web page using a template capable of dynamically defining an attribute.

Recently, as well as the use of the Internet through a PC, the use of a wireless web service using a wireless Internet terminal is increasing. In particular, the UI (User Interface) of a web page for providing a wireless web service in the early days was a simple form, but recently, a web page of various UIs including images and icons has been provided.

Recently, most web pages provide various UIs using templates as well as contents. The template refers to a form (frame), a frame, or a model of a web page. Currently, various types of templates to which an image is attached are used.

A method of providing a web page using a template according to the prior art will be described with reference to FIG. 1.

1 is a view for explaining a web page providing method using a template according to the prior art.

The template according to the prior art is merely a framework for adding content. In other words, the template and the content that have been formatted are registered, and a single web page is created through this.

Referring to FIG. 1, there is shown a content 10, an area into which the content 10 is to be entered, and a template 30 in which a predetermined preset shape is formed. Here, the content 10 is a concept that includes a content name, a content file (typically, a specific address is mapped to the content name, and a specific file exists at the mapped address), and the like. Refers to all information provided.

Both of these provide a web page 50 for a wireless mobile service. That is, it is possible to provide a web page including various contents provided with the UI through a preset template.

However, information on fonts, cell colors, and additional images, which are UI attributes of a preset and fixed template, cannot be defined dynamically. Therefore, it is difficult to dynamically change the UI of the template 30, and thus it is difficult to apply a template corresponding to the browser environment of each terminal receiving the web page. In other words, it is difficult to satisfy the requirements for the UI in a wireless Internet environment in which the browser environment varies by terminal.

In addition, unlike web pages over the wired Internet, web pages for wireless web services have a small size and provide little information. Therefore, each web page must be provided accordingly. do. Therefore, when using the template according to the prior art, since each template for providing each UI to be provided for one browser standard is required, respectively, the efficiency of template creation and management according to various UI provisions is inferior.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus for providing a web page that enables various UIs to be provided using a single template by dynamically managing the attributes of the template. There is this.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus for providing a web page suitable for each browser environment of a terminal using a template having dynamic properties.

Other objects of the present invention will become more apparent through the preferred embodiments described below.

According to a first aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object, a method for providing a wireless web page using a template in a web page providing apparatus, the method comprising the steps of: registering a template whose properties are defined; Receiving attribute data corresponding to a defined attribute of the template; And generating a web page using the registered content and the template. A wireless web page providing method using a dynamic template and a recording medium recording the method are provided.

Here, the property of the template may include a page property for UI configuration of the web page and a content property for expressing the content.

In addition, the template in which the attribute is defined corresponds to a specific browser standard, and the attribute data may be data corresponding to the browser standard.

The receiving of the attribute data corresponding to the defined attribute of the template may include converting the attribute data to correspond to at least one terminal type information registered in advance, and using the registered content and the template. In the generating of the web page, each web page according to the converted attribute data may be generated.

The generating of the web page using the registered content and the template may include: combining the content with the template; Generating the web page to correspond to the attribute data; And outputting the web page.

According to a first aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object, an apparatus for providing a wireless web page using a template having a dynamic attribute, comprising: a template registration unit for registering a template in which the attribute is defined; A content register to register content; A storage unit for storing the template and the content; A template property processor configured to receive property data corresponding to the defined property of the template and set the property of the registered template; A web page generation unit generating a web page using the template in which the property is set and the contents; And an output unit for outputting the generated web page.

Here, the storage unit stores one or more terminal model information registered in advance,

The apparatus may further include an attribute converter configured to convert the attribute data to correspond to each terminal model information.

Hereinafter, a method and apparatus for providing a web page using a dynamic template according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

2 is a block diagram schematically showing the entire system for providing a web page using a dynamic template in the web page providing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, the web page providing apparatus 200 may generate and provide a web page provided to not only portable wireless terminals such as PCS, PDA, PSP, and smart phones, but also all terminals capable of internet, such as a PC. To perform. Here, although the web page providing apparatus 200 may directly provide the generated web page to the terminal, it is obvious that the web page may be provided to the terminal from a separate web server. That is, the web page providing apparatus 200 performs only a function of generating a web page, and there is a separate web server for providing a web page according to a web service to a terminal, thereby providing a web page generated by the web server. will be.

In order to generate and provide the web page 250 in the web page providing apparatus 200, the content 210 and the template 230 to be provided are first registered.

The content 210 is a concept that includes all kinds of information or contents through which digital texts, audio, audio, images, and the like are digitally produced and processed for use in wired and wireless telecommunication networks. Hereinafter, the content name, the content source file (ie, its contents), and the like will be referred to as content. Therefore, the specific information to be provided as the web page or the content 210 which is the content thereof is registered in the web page providing apparatus 200.

In the template 230 according to the present invention, the font, the cell color, the image, etc. do not have a fixed value, but each property is defined to be set dynamically. That is, the template 230 is registered in the web page providing apparatus 200 with only information on a frame type, a structure, and the like defined, and each attribute value not set.

 For example, only information that a company logo is inserted at a specific position on the top is defined and registered, and then an image corresponding to the company logo is separately registered as attribute data.

As another method, the web page providing apparatus 200 may register a template 230 in which an attribute is set in advance. In this case, the web page providing apparatus 200 may register the attribute data of the attribute of the template 230 together. In other words, a template capable of converting a property, rather than a fixed template, is registered. Accordingly, the web page providing apparatus 200 may provide a template 230 corresponding to each browser standard and capable of providing various UIs.

Here, since each template 230 may use a web page 270 having a different size for each browser, it is preferable that each template 230 corresponding to each browser standard is registered in the web page providing apparatus 200. .

The template attribute data 250 is data for setting the attribute of the template 230 having no attribute and defining only the attribute. Accordingly, the web page providing apparatus 200 receives the template attribute data and sets the attribute of the template to generate the web page 270 to which the content 210 is combined. Of course, the template attribute data 250 is also registered so that the template 230 corresponds to each browser standard, it is preferable that the data according to the browser standard is input.

Hereinafter, an overall configuration for performing the function of providing the web page 270 by the web page providing apparatus 200 according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

3 is a functional block diagram showing the configuration according to the function of the web page providing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The web page providing apparatus 200 includes a template register 201, a content register 203, a template attribute processor 205, a web page generator 207, a web page output 208, and a storage 209. do.

The template registration unit 201 performs a function of registering a template in which an attribute is defined, the content registration unit 203 performs a function of registering content, and the storage unit 209 stores a registered template and content.

The template attribute processing unit 205 receives attribute data corresponding to the defined attribute of the registered template and sets the attribute of the template. The attributes of the template may be divided into page attributes for UI configuration of a web page to be provided and content attributes for content to be displayed on the page. That is, the page property is a property for a UI of a page such as inserting an image in a space where content is not displayed in the page, and the content property is a content UI such as an icon or a cell color in the space of a page where the content is expressed. Property for The template attribute processing unit 205 sets page attributes and content attributes to correspond to the input attribute data.

The web page generation unit 207 performs a function of generating a web page using a template whose properties are set and registered content, and the web page output unit 208 performs a function of outputting the generated web page.

Here, it is apparent that the template registration unit 201, the content registration unit 203, and the template attribute processing unit 205 may include respective input units and one integrated input unit for receiving a template, content, and attribute data. Description will be apparent to those skilled in the art, so detailed description will be omitted.

Here, the web page providing apparatus 200 may further include an attribute conversion unit (not shown) that performs a function of converting template attribute data to set template attributes corresponding to the terminal model. That is, information about at least one terminal model is previously registered and stored in a storage unit, and when the attribute data is received, the attribute data is converted to correspond to each terminal model. Therefore, the UI optimized according to each terminal model can be provided.

The information on the terminal model may include information on the web browser standard used, the number of pixels of the display device, and the number of bits per pixel. Accordingly, the web page providing apparatus 200 converts the attribute data to correspond to each terminal model. The conversion information is stored.

For example, when information on a model of a terminal equipped with a display device capable of expressing 1024 colors and a terminal equipped with a display device capable of expressing 256 colors is registered, the content attribute of the input attribute data may be changed. If the information on the cell color corresponds to blue, the attribute data is converted by extracting a value capable of expressing blue using a color expression method corresponding to each terminal model. As another example, when image data is input to the template as attribute data, the size of the image may be converted to correspond to the number of display pixels according to each terminal model.

In order to convert the attribute data, the web page providing apparatus 200 may include a terminal model table and a conversion table corresponding to each terminal model. That is, a terminal model table including the terminal model number, the number of display pixels, the number of bits per pixel (the number of color representations is determined), and the browser standard is provided, and the conversion corresponding to the number of display pixels, the number of bits per pixel, and the browser standard A conversion table including a method is provided, and the attribute data is converted by recognizing a conversion method according to each terminal type as the two tables are matched.

Hereinafter, a process of providing a web page will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.

A flow chart showing the process.

Referring to FIG. 4, in step 410, content to be provided through a web page is registered. In step 420, a template in which an attribute is defined is registered. Here, it will be apparent that the registration order of the template and the content may be changed.

In operation 430, property data corresponding to the defined property of the template is received. Accordingly, the attribute of the template according to the attribute data is set, and in step 440, a web page is generated and output using the template and the content in which the attribute is set.

Therefore, in the method of providing a web page according to the present invention, the template whose properties are defined is first registered, and the property of the template may be set before the web page is generated in the web page providing apparatus 200. It is possible to provide web pages with various UIs that conform to browser standards.

Here, in the input of the attribute data, the administrator (that is, the user of the web page providing apparatus 200) may directly input the respective attribute data corresponding to each browser standard, but as described above, If only one attribute data is inputted, the web page providing apparatus 200 may convert the attribute data corresponding to each terminal model to set the attribute of each template. Therefore, a web page of a UI optimized for each terminal model can be provided.

Referring to FIG. 5, steps 510 to 530 are the same as steps 410 to 430 of FIG. 4, and recognize at least one terminal model registered in advance in step 540. Since the display of the web page may be different even when the same browser is used depending on the type of the terminal receiving the web page, the attribute data of the template corresponds to each recognized terminal type in order to provide a web page suitable for each terminal type. In step 550 to convert.

In step 560, the attributes of the template are set to correspond to each of the at least one attribute data converted, and each web page is generated through the template and the contents in which the attributes are set. Accordingly, a web page corresponding to each terminal model may be provided, and thus, an optimized UI may be provided according to a function of a display device as well as a browser of each terminal.
