Specific embodiment
The preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated below in conjunction with attached drawing, it should be understood that preferred reality described herein It applies example to be merely to illustrate and explain the present invention, be not intended to limit the present invention.
Fig. 1 show the flow chart of the pattern method of adjustment of content of pages in one embodiment of the invention, this method include with Lower step S11-S13:
Step S11 receives the instruction that user adjusts the current pattern of content of pages.
Step S12, identification instruction, the corresponding target patterns of determine instruction.
Step S13 searches the corresponding plug-in unit of target patterns in pattern plugin library and replaces the corresponding plug-in unit of current pattern.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the instruction that user adjusts the current pattern of content of pages is received, identifies the instruction, determining should Corresponding target patterns are instructed, and then the current pattern of the corresponding plug-in unit replacement of lookup target patterns is corresponding in pattern plugin library It is thus achieved that flexibly, easily adjusting the purpose of the pattern of content of pages, current pattern pair is deleted without user manually for plug-in unit The plug-in unit answered simultaneously searches suitable plug-in unit, reduces operating procedure, improves the efficiency of the pattern adjustment of content of pages.
As shown in Fig. 2, after step s 13, step S14 can also be included:
Step S14 preserves the content of pages in current pattern into target patterns.
The embodiment of the present invention can automatically preserve the content of pages in current pattern into target patterns, without user's weight The content of pages in current pattern is newly uploaded, so as to save the time that user uploads data.
In a preferred embodiment, if current pattern includes the pattern of m row n row lattice numbers, at this point, step S11 can To be embodied as step A or step B:
Step A, receiving user increases the current pattern of content of pages the instruction of pattern lattice number.
It is a line 3 there are one pattern for example, when certain hot zone is used for video display, two row in total, that is to say, that heat Point area can show 6 videos.After selecting the pattern, user is directed to each pattern lattice uploaded videos, and user can upload multiple Video is corresponded to each pattern lattice by video, system automatically.User is after uploaded videos, it may be found that 6 pattern lattice are not enough, It needs to change pattern.At this point, user can drag to the pattern lattice of the second row in the first row, become a line 4 so in total The pattern of two rows.It is only illustrative, can also pass through it should be noted that increasing pattern lattice number here by the mode of dragging Other modes increase pattern lattice number, such as increase pattern lattice number by way of right click or double-click.
Step B receives the instruction that user reduces the current pattern of content of pages pattern lattice number.
It is a line 3 there are one pattern for example, when certain hot zone is used for video display, two row in total, that is to say, that heat Point area can show 6 videos.After selecting the pattern, user is directed to each pattern lattice uploaded videos, and user can upload multiple Video is corresponded to each pattern lattice by video, system automatically.User is after 4 videos are uploaded, it may be found that not needing to be so more Pattern lattice number, need change pattern.At this point, user can choose and delete remaining two pattern lattice.It should be noted that It is only illustrative here by mode is chosen to delete pattern lattice, pattern lattice number can also be reduced by other means, such as passed through The mode of right click or double-click reduces pattern lattice number etc..
In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, as shown in figure 3, after step, can also include the following steps S31- S32:
