Fig. 6 A shows the example of the description of the piece element among the html file F4, and this html file F4 generates from RSS information source F1, xsl file F2 and convergent-divergent script file F3.Fig. 6 B shows the example that the scale objects among the html file F4 is described.
The mapping script that comprises among the convergent-divergent script file F3 refer among the html file F4 shown in Fig. 6 A the piece element "<div...〉...</div " description 301 and 302 in the class description " class=" thumbnail " " and " class=" summary " " that comprise.For example, suppose " thumbnail (thumbnail) " corresponding typical image and " summary (summary) " corresponding summary, then ID " id=" 01 " " and " id=" 02 " " are mapped to the ID that scale objects is described.
The scale objects that Fig. 6 B illustrates among the html file F4 is described 303 example.Describe 303 with the corresponding generation of each display object scale objects among the html file F4.Describe in 303 at this scale objects, set up the parameter that comprises " id ", " initZoomFactor ", " relatedTo " etc.The zoom factor of parameter " initZoomFactor " indication when initial the demonstration.Parameter " relatedTo " indication is transferred to the zoom operations of relevant object the relation and the transmission ratio of its another object.
The ID of the corresponding blocks element (Fig. 6 A) in the mapping script is set to parameter " id ".The value of indication zoom degree is set to " initZoomFactor ".For example, if zoom factor is set to " 0.0 ", then image shows with the original display size.If zoom factor be set on the occasion of, then show image expanding.If zoom factor is set to negative value, then show the image that reduces.
For example, if " relatedTo " is set to " children:0.8 (child: 0.8) ", then the zoom operations of relevant object is transferred to the object that other comprise with transmission ratio " 0.8 ".If " relatedTo " is set to " brother:-0.5 (brother :-0.5) ", then the zoom operations of relevant object utilizes opposite polarity to be transferred to the object of other concurrency relations with transmission ratio " 0.5 ".Particularly, if carry out the amplifieroperation of relevant object, then carry out the reduction operation of the object of other concurrency relations with transmission ratio " 0.5 ".
In addition, describe in 303 at scale objects, the scale objects action description 304 that has comprised, it defines the display action of each other display object that comprise.In the scale objects action description 304 that comprises, set up the parameter that comprises " zoomFactor (zoom factor) ", " id ", " size (size) " etc.Parameter " ZoomFactor " indication is with the scope of the zoom factor of its display object.Parameter " id " identifying object.The display size that parameter " size " indication is corresponding with the zoom factor scope.
The ID of the corresponding blocks element (Fig. 6 A) in the mapping script is set to parameter " id ".For example, if " zoomFactor " is set to " 0.01.0 ", display object when then the zoom factor when parent object is in " 0.0 " and arrives in the scope of " 1.0 ".If " zoomFactor " is set to " 0.11.0 ", display object not when then the zoom factor when parent object equals " 0.0 ", but when the zoom factor of parent object is in " 0.1 " and arrives in the scope of " 1.0 " display object.
For example, suppose object is that image and " size " are set to " 20% 50% ", and then the image size changes in 20% to 50% scope accordingly with the scope of " zoomFactor ".Suppose object is that text (character string) and " size " are set to " 8pt 12pt " (wherein pt represents the point (point) by its pointing character size), and then character boundary changes in the scope of 12pt at 8pt accordingly with the scope of " zoomFactor ".If " size " is set to " 50% " or " 8pt ", then keep image or character boundary with fixed size, and no matter zoom factor.
Fig. 7 is the precedence diagram that is used to explain the process of being carried out by the image processing equipment of first embodiment.
As shown in Figure 7, when user U carries out browser 31 landfall process relevant with MFP1 by designated user ID, password etc. (step S101), browser 31 begins to carry out the verification process (Basic Authentication etc.) (step S102) between browser 31 and the MFP 1.
When authentication is normally finished, notice is returned to browser 31.When authentication is not normally finished, error code is turned back to browser 31.
If do not need to check safety, then land with verification process and can omit.Perhaps, for the situation of carrying out landfall process with do not carry out the situation of landfall process, can change process subsequently.
Subsequently, when user U when browser 31 input tabulation shows request (step S103), browser 31 receives RSS (step S104) from MFP 1, and the description based on the link that comprises among the RSS that receives sequentially receives (step S105-S107) such as XSL, convergent-divergent script, thumbnail images one by one continuously from MFP 1.
At this moment, when the user U that asks this tabulation to show does not have execution to relate to the landfall process of MFP 1, MFP 1 can be arranged to stop this user to receive RSS, XSL, convergent-divergent script, thumbnail image etc. or limit the content that offers this user, makes the content of having only safety to go up no problem file be provided for this user.
Subsequently, browser 31 generates html file based on the RSS, the XSL that receive from MFP 1, convergent-divergent script, thumbnail image etc., and shows this html file (step S108).Particularly, browser 31 passes through XSL and convergent-divergent script applications are generated html file to RSS, and shows the html file that generates.
Subsequently, when user U carries out zoom operations by mouse action or keyboard operation to browser 31 (step S109), if desired, then browser 31 receives from MFP 1 and lacks information (step S110), and carries out demonstration (step S111) according to zoom operations.Lack information this moment is the information that for example relates to such object, and this object is not shown before zoom operations, but zoom operations need show this object.
Fig. 8 is the figure that is presented at the example of the screen that shows in the browser 31 to 13B.
Fig. 8 shows the initial example of checking screen 311.In initial the checking in the screen 311 of Fig. 8, a plurality of " document " object 312 (8 objects in this example) shows with identical size.In each " document " object 312, " title " object 313, " author " object 314 and " writing date " object 315 have been shown.Set up these objects 313-315 and make that the value of the scale objects of initial value and parent object of parameter " zoomFactor " " initZoomFactor " (Fig. 6 B) in describing is identical, and they were shown when initial the demonstration.This moment the object that is not shown the value of " initZoomFactor " of the initial value of " zoomFactor " scale objects that is set to larger than parent object in describing.
Fig. 9 be presented at carry out zoom operations and do not select Fig. 8 check any " document " object 312 in the screen 311 time (or when execution in the marginal portion of checking screen 311 scrolls up) the example of checking screen 311.
In the example of Fig. 9, a plurality of " document " object 312 is equally expanded, and " typical image " object (thumbnail image) 316 that is not shown before is shown.Parameter " relatedTo " (Fig. 6 B) during the scale objects that comprises the whole screen object of a plurality of " document " object 312 is described is set to " child: 1.0 ", and a plurality of " document " object 312 is equally expanded.The value of " initZoomFactor " during the scale objects that the initial value of " zoomFactor " of " typical image " object 316 is set to larger than father's " document " object 312 is described, and when zoom factor surpasses particular value, carry out demonstration.To from the viewing area of screen, eliminate above " document " object that the edge is placed, and the quantity of the object that shows changes to 6 from 8.This normal Presentation Function by browser 31 is carried out.
Figure 10 show when by select Fig. 9 check specific " document " object 312 execution zoom operations in the screen 311 time, the example of checking screen 311.
In the example of Figure 10, only selectively " document " object 312 is expanded and other " document " objects are reduced.Parameter " relatedTo " (Fig. 6 B) during the scale objects of " document " object 312 is described is set to " brother :-1.0 ", and " document " object 312 of selecting is expanded and other " document " objects 312 are reduced same ratio simultaneously.In " document " object 312 of selecting, " typical image " object 316 is expanded, and " summary " object 317 and " page-images " object 318 of not being shown before are shown.The value of " initZoomFactor " during the scale objects that the initial value of " zoomFactor " is set to larger than father's " document " object 312 is described, and when zoom factor surpasses certain value, carry out the demonstration of " summary " object 317 and " page-images " object 318.Every other " document " object except " document " object of selecting is equally reduced.
Figure 11 shows when by select the further example of checking screen 311 during the execution zoom operations of specific " document " object 312 in the screen 311 checking of Figure 10.
In the example of Figure 11, only selectively " document " object 312 is further extended and other " document " objects are further reduced.In " document " object 312 of selecting, " summary " object 317 is expanded, and the quantity of " page-images " object 318 that shows increases.In other " document " objects 312, " author " object of Xian Shiing and " typical image " object are removed before, and " title " object and " writing date " object are shown.The scope of " zoomFactor " (Fig. 6 B) of " author " object and " typical image " object is set, if make zoom factor surpass certain negative value, then this indication range becomes outside scope, and when zoom factor surpasses this negative value, does not carry out the demonstration of these objects.
Figure 12 shows when by the example of checking screen 311 when checking of Figure 11 selects specific " document " object 312 further to carry out zoom operations in the screen 311, and by selecting the further execution zoom operations of specific " page-images " object 318 in " document " object 312.
In the example of Figure 12, only selectively " document " object 312 is further extended and other " document " objects are further reduced.In " document " object 312 of selecting, the quantity of " page-images " object 318 of demonstration increases, and its " page-images " object of carrying out zoom operations is expanded.In other " document " objects 312, " writing date " object that before shows is removed, and has only " title " object to be shown.
Figure 13 A and 13B show the example of the screen that shows when zoom operations is carried out in the specific region.Particularly, when selected and zoom operations is performed when " zone " object in " page-images " object 318 shown in Figure 13 A 319, shown in Figure 13 B, show " regional specifying information " object 320.In " regional specifying information " object 320, show " image file (URL information) ", " title ", " thumbnail (URL information) ", " keyword (URL information) ", " title ", " type ", " text ", " text on every side ", " X0 (position) ", " Y0 (position) ", " X1 (position) ", " Y1 (position) " etc.
In first embodiment of the invention described above, use xsl file F2 (Fig. 2) to generate the screen display html file.The image processing equipment of the second embodiment of the present invention is arranged to not use xsl file by using form script file and CSS (cascade CSS) file (as the file of describing at Javascript etc.), generates the screen display html file.Use the long relatively processing time of generation needs of the html file of xsl file according to first embodiment, and it is long relatively to be used to finish time of screen display.Yet, the image processing equipment using form script file of second embodiment and CSS file, and html file can be generating at a high speed, and can shorten the time that is used to finish screen display.
