Description

Can select the off-line reading method of hyperlink on the internet

The present invention relates on a kind of internet to read the method for hyperlink, particularly relevant for a kind of off-line reading method selecting hyperlink on the internet, the hyperlink of especially can a download user being concerned about.

The internet is a global Wide Area Network; this network utilisation telephone line or special circuit connect mechanism of school, government's tissue and the various research unit in the whole world, and the user can exchange information, transmit Email or file with other people on the network of any one connection. The whole world has more than 2,000 ten thousand computers to be connected in the middle of this system approximately at present, and only having Albania in all parts of the world is the country that the internet can't connect.

The main service that is used on the international network has two kinds of Email (E-mail) and FTPs (FTP:File Transfer Protocol). At present since global Information Network in conjunction with multimedia popular, also be fit to wanting that the people who performs makes individual's homepage (Home Page). WWW (World Wide Web) is called for short WWW or 3W, reads the W into Triple, and it is by CERN (European quantum physics laboratory; The European Laboratory for Particle Physics) develops out, a kind of multimedia inquiry system on network, this kind system is main to be can be in the multimedia transmittability of network performance, become at present in one main flow on the internet, because it combines the multiple communications medias such as literal, sound, image, so see through global web server, the user can the various information on heterogeneous networks of very easy access, become at present one of network the most popular on the internet, picture on global Information Network all must use the browser of the host-host protocol of supporting HTTP and HTML, and the user just can browse them.

The figure shelves that on global Information Network, occur, main have the forms such as .GIF .IIF .JPG .RGB and .HDF, and animation file has .FLI .GI, and video files has .AVG. .MPG, and the audio file has .AU .VOC etc. HTTP communication agreement because present global Information Network website is employed, so the word string that most network address all can add " http: ∥ " is at network address front, for example http: ∥ www.discovery.com.

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is by the made a kind of multimedia fixed in European quantum physics laboratory, the indicating language of hypertext, it is widely used on the global Information Network of internet at present, this kind language utilizes hyperlink (hyperlink) to connect different media, transmits multimedia ability so possessed at network. Html file is combined by many labels (tag) and interior literary composition, usually it is general pure words formatted file, so we can write it with general text-processing program, so it is a kind of cross-platform language that HTML also has been described, and label (tag) is used for setting up hyperlink, the control code in the middle of its somewhat similar E-TEN Corp Chinese file; Because HTML is an emerging language, so its grammer is still in the middle of evolution, if the website that we will browse uses newer grammer, then the user relatively also will use the html browser of supporting new edition, the up-to-date specification of HTML is 4.0 editions at present, can support dynamic web page (DHTML, Dynamic HTML), also be exactly the Multimedia such as effect between the adding animation reaches in the middle of the webpage. The below is a html web page example, and it makes a simple literal webpage, wherein＜and HTML 〉,＜HEAD〉be the label of HTML:

　　＜HTML＞

　　＜HEAD＞

　　＜TITLE＞Bruce Huang＜/TITLE＞

　　＜SCRIPT＞

　　    if(self.parent.frames.length！＝0)

　　    self.parent.location＝

Single resource addressing device (URL:Uniform Resource Loactor) represents mode in a kind of location on the internet, and its form is: " Scheme: ∥ Host.Domain[:Port]/Path/File Name ". Wherein Scheme is the procotol title, such as HTTP, Gopher, FTP, File, News, Telnet, WAIS, MailTo etc., and Host is server name, such as WWW, sun, ibm, alpha etc., Domain is domain of definition title, such as microsoft.com.tw, roc.gov.tw, whitehouse.gov etc., the port numbering of Port for using, usually this parameter can be omitted, Path then is the file title that is connected with FileName, if we omit them, then can use the default value of system, also to the HomePage (homepage) of this website, browse exactly, if but the user knows Path and FileName, then they are added the speed that will help to look for data in the middle of the single resource addressing device. Example such as the http of single resource addressing device: ∥ www.microsoft.com/taiwan, it is the single resource addressing device of Taiwan Microsoft, the communication agreement of http is used in representative, and main frame is WWW, but owing to all be as the communication agreement take http at most WWW website on the internet at present, so we often omit the agreement part of front, become www.microsoft.com/taiwan and write.

Can watch the program of global Information Network to be called browser (browser), the browser of computer circle specially refers to all to be at the common browser of PC in the program that can browse global Information Network website on the internet such as Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator etc. at present.

User's data query of will surfing the Net, that normal use is various search engines on network (search engine), domestic " the sweet potato rattan " that common are old brand (www.yam.org.tw), " station of very rubbing " (www.kimo.com.tw), " oh Chinese net " (www.whatsite.com), " Chinese Yahoo " (chinese.yahoo.com) etc., abroad then have " Yahoo " (www.yahoo.com), " Lycos " (www.lycos.com) etc.

Existing offline ocr software is that the target web of quoting of all bindings that a certain webpage and it are comprised downloads together, if the user only is concerned about one or several binding on the webpage, rather than all bindings, downloading so all bindings is exactly to lose time and other resources.

In the foregoing invention background, many shortcomings that traditional off-line ocr software produces, the invention provides a kind of off-line reading method selecting hyperlink on the internet, can choose at random one or several binding that to download, avoid the drawback of all downloading in the prior art, so just saved time and resource.

Another object of the present invention is to allow the user choose at random the binding that it is concerned about on the webpage, the then binding of a download user selection, and generate an index webpage that is formed by these bindings. Use method provided by the present invention can make the user obtain the content of oneself wanting with the highest efficient.

According to above-described purpose, the invention provides the method that a kind of off-line selecting hyperlink on the internet is read, wherein this method comprises three key steps. At first, enter first step, and whether have next hyperlink grammer element in the file of judgement on webpage. If hyperlink grammer element exists, then deposit three partial contents in the file on the webpage in data structure, and data structure is added one first array, then, return this first step. If there is no next hyperlink grammer element then finishes to analyze. Then, enter second step, and judge whether the user selects to finish editor. If the user does not select to finish editor, judge then whether the user selects a hyperlink. If the user does not select a hyperlink, then return second step. If the user selects a hyperlink, then according to selected single resource addressing device, the element of match query in the first array copies to element in one second array. Afterwards, show demonstration this paper part of the hyperlink of selecting, the complete grammer with hyperlink partly is added in the word string variable simultaneously, then, returns second step. If the user selects to finish editor, then finish to judge and edit selected hyperlink. Then, enter third step. At first, making one first number is one, and judges whether the first number exists. If the first number exists, then from the second array, get first several element, and download the pointed file of single resource addressing device in first several element. Then, make the first number add one, afterwards, return the step of judging whether this first number exists. If the first number does not exist, then the word string variable is saved as the index web page files, and finish the method for the off-line reading of selection hyperlink.

Above-mentioned purpose of the present invention and advantage will be described below in detail with following embodiment and diagram, wherein:

Fig. 1 is for carrying out the grammer analysis to the file that shows on the webpage and judging whether file on the webpage has the flow chart of next hyperlink grammer element;

Fig. 2 is for to judge whether the user selects the flow chart of a certain hyperlink and the selected hyperlink of editor user;

Fig. 3 is according to the selected hyperlink of user, the flow chart that the element that records is before downloaded;

Some embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail as follows. Yet except detailed description, the present invention can also be widely implements at other embodiment, and scope of the present invention circumscribed not, and is as the criterion with appended claim.

We are in operating system at the webpage that the internet browsing device is seen, be by the text-only file of HTML form via browser-interpreted, the hyperlink on the webpage is by several HTML grammer element representations. Wherein operating system can be single single worker's disc operating system (DOS), single multiplex's operating system, and such as WIN 98, OS/2, MAC/OS, or many people multiplex's operating system, such as WINNT, UNIX, and various UNIX-clone. Common browser has Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator, yet also has other browser. The below with a kind of html format wherein describe its grammer as:

<A HREF＝“DATA/PAGE1。HTM”>CLICK HERE</A>。

Wherein<a HREF＝"DATA、PAGE1.HTM">Represent that this is a binding, DATA/PAGE1.HTM is the target file of this binding; CLICK HERE is that this is attached at and shows this paper on the browser;</A>It is the end sign of this grammer.

For this kind grammer, the present invention adopts the method for following three steps so that selectable off-line reading method to be provided, and wherein first step is with reference to Fig. 1, and second step is with reference to Fig. 2, and the 3rd step is with reference to Fig. 3.

The first step as shown in Figure 1, is carried out the grammer analysis to the former file of the HTML of current demonstration. At first, enter beginning 100. Then, in the former file of HTML, search in order next hyperlink grammer element 101. Then, judge whether next hyperlink grammer element finds 102. If do not find, finish 104 grammer analyses. If found, former code to the hyperlink found extracts three data item and forms a structure 103, wherein first shows text or figure path, second single resource addressing device that points to target, the 3rd complete hyperlink code, but need to revise single resource addressing device wherein, it is changed into by the target of pointing to the internet point to local target. Local target ties up on the local storage medium.

For example, the code of a hyperlink is

“<A href＝http：∥www.abc.com/html/xyz.htm>this is the text you can see in browser</A>”

Wherein the first item number is according to being

this is the text you can see in browser

The second item number is according to being

“http：∥www.abc.com/html/xyz.htm”

The 3rd item number is according to being "<a href=FILE: ∥ | DOWNS|TE|TASK1|/www.abc.com/html/xyz.htm>" this is the text you can see in browser</A>These data are added array A. Then return (101), repeat above process, until finish.

Second step as shown in Figure 2, judges whether the user selects the action of a certain hyperlink and the selected hyperlink of editor user. At first, enter beginning 200, then, judge whether the user finishes editor's action 201. If so, then finish editor 204. Otherwise, judge whether the user chooses a certain hyperlink 202 with index at HTML viewer control (can provide by the windows system, be used for showing the html webpage) window. If not, then return 201. If, then the single resource addressing device according to him can return to application program along with NM_HOTSPOT message, application program is compared with the single resource addressing device item of each data among this single resource addressing device and the array A, find equal, this data structure is copied among the array B, and take out its first and the 3rd. First is exactly the demonstration this paper that chooses hyperlink, is used for the hyperlink that prompting user has been selected. Then, the 3rd of the data structure of all selected hyperlinks is linked togather, deposits file in, the file of generation is the html file of index webpage, this step in Fig. 2 203. Then return 201, repeat above process, until finish.

The 3rd step as shown in Figure 3, was to download selected binding according to the selected hyperlink of user. At first, enter beginning 300. Then, N=1 is set, such as step 301 among the figure. Judge whether to exist N element 302. If so, then N element of access from array B downloaded the second item number of its single resource addressing device according to indicated file, and is stored in local storage medium by its original catalogue structure, such as step 303 among the figure. Then, N=N+1 is such as step 305 among the figure. Then return 302. If not, namely there be not N element, then character string S saved as the index web page files, such as step 304 among the figure, then finish, such as step 306 among the figure.

Such as Fig. 4 and shown in Figure 5, be to introduce one according to a specific embodiment of the present invention. Shown in Fig. 4, download certain two binding in the www.software.com homepage such as wish:
