Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. Like reference numerals refer to like or similar elements throughout the drawings.

1 is a block diagram showing a menu content providing system according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, the system includes a mobile terminal 100 receiving menu content and specific content selected on the menu content from a contents management system (CMS); A CMS (200) for receiving the specific content and content information on the content from a content provider (CP) server 500 to create the menu content; A swap gateway (300) for transferring the menu contents created in the CMS (200) to a swap browser of the mobile terminal (100) through a mobile communication network; And a database 400 storing the content and the content information provided from the content provider 500 and referenced by the CMS 200.

The CMS 200 receives content information including location information of the content and a plurality of product pages constituting the content, a representative image corresponding to the content name, and the content name from the CP server 500. By creating a menu content in which a name and a representative image of the content are simultaneously displayed and provided on a swap browser of the mobile terminal 100, the mobile terminal user is provided with navigation according to content selection.
The menu content is created by inserting the representative image at a position corresponding to the content name. That is, as the representative image is disposed above, below, left, or right of the content name, the user of the mobile terminal 100 provides easy content selection. Here, the representative image is different from the conventional preview image, has a smaller size than the preview image, and an image corresponding to the content name is adopted. The representative image may be applied by applying a specific image provided from the CP server 500 or by stealing a specific portion of the preview image constituting the product page.
Hereinafter, a method of providing menu contents according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 2.

As shown in FIG. 2, first, the CMS 200 corresponds to specific information from the CP server 500 and location information of a plurality of product pages constituting the content, the content name, and the content name. Receives content information including the representative image. In this case, the content information received from the CP server 500 may include provisioning information, essential information, and additional information about the content. For reference, the provisioning information includes application ID, application mode information, platform version information, supportable mobile terminal display color information, sound information of the mobile terminal, and size information of the mobile terminal display. The essential information may include application name, application version information, application vendor information, application execution file location information, application attribute information, service group information to which the application belongs, and application download file information. The additional information includes period information such as a registration period of an application.
Meanwhile, the CMS 200 provides a predetermined input window as shown in FIG. 3 to the CP server, thereby allowing the operator of the CP server 500 to include information about contents, that is, a plurality of images including a preview image of the contents.

Thereafter, the CMS 200 creates menu content based on the content information received from the CP server 500 (S110). That is, the menu content is configured such that the name of the content and a representative image corresponding to the content name can be simultaneously displayed on the swap browser of the mobile terminal 100. More specifically, referring to the configuration of the menu content with reference to FIG. 4, the menu content basically includes a content name 610 and a representative image 620, and an area adjacent to the content name 610, that is, the content name ( As the representative image 620 is disposed on the upper, lower, left, and right sides of the 610, the mobile terminal 100 allows the user of the mobile terminal 100 to confirm in advance a schematic image representing the corresponding content when selecting the content. To provide. Here, the representative image 620 is different from the conventional preview image, has a smaller size than the preview image, and an image corresponding to the content name 610 is adopted.
