  Subsequently, in accordance with the registration request received by the receiving unit 1152, the table control unit 1154 associates the content with a predetermined layer and stores it in the layer table, and sets the approval information of the content to “no approval” (step S302). .

  Subsequently, when content is added to the layer by the table control unit 1154, the request unit 1158 requests the administrator terminal 1030 to approve the viewing of the content (step S304).

  Subsequently, the accepting unit 1152 accepts approval of content whose approval information is set to no approval from the administrator terminal 1030 (step S306).

  Subsequently, the table control unit 1154 updates the content approval information from “no approval” to “approved” in accordance with the approval of the administrator received by the reception unit 1152 (step S308).

  Here, the approval process of the content C copied to the layer A will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  First, when the user A long presses the content C displayed on the layer B from the input unit 220, the content A moves to the layer A. When the long press is released at this time, the content C is copied onto the layer A. Thereby, a registration request for copying content C to layer A is transmitted from the user terminal 20, and the accepting unit 1152 accepts the registration request for content C (step S300).

  Subsequently, in accordance with the registration request received by the receiving unit 1152, the table control unit 1154 associates the content C with the layer A and stores it in the layer table, and sets the approval information of the content C to “no approval” (step S302). . As a result, the layer table becomes the layer table shown in FIG.

  Subsequently, when content C is added to layer A by the table control unit 1154, the request unit 1158 requests the administrator terminal 1030 to approve browsing of the content C (step S304).

  Subsequently, the accepting unit 1152 accepts approval for browsing the content C from the administrator terminal 1030 (step S306).

  Subsequently, the table control unit 1154 updates the approval information of the content C from no approval to approval with the approval of the administrator received by the reception unit 1152 (step S308).

  As a result, the approval information of the content C associated with the layer A becomes approved, and a screen as shown in FIG. 13 is displayed.

  As described above, according to the second embodiment, simply displaying the layer A allows the user to grasp the display position of the content C that has not been browsed and is associated with the layer A. This prevents the user A and the user from adding new content or moving the content A or the content B to the display position of the content C on the layer A (position where the shadow 53 is displayed). B can be prompted. For this reason, according to 2nd Embodiment, the fall of the visibility at the time of displaying the layer A can be prevented.

  In the second embodiment, the content copy has been described as an example. However, the method of the second embodiment can be applied to a case where content is additionally registered.
