According to the present invention, when a key button corresponding to a designated shortcut key is pressed down for a predetermined time or more during an operation in an operating system or an application, a web browser for accessing an address corresponding to the key button is driven to be provided to the user. It relates to a website channel providing method and a website channel providing system.

When a user working on a given operating system (OS) or a predetermined application wants to access a specific service site, a procedure of firstly running a web browser is required. Then, a network address of a service site to be accessed is input from the user. A procedure was required.

In this conventional method, as the operating system (OS) or the application and the web browser of the other working environment are operated, the user may result in a decrease in the work continuity in the operating system (OS) or the application.

Moreover, the conventional method requires a user to input a network address every time the user connects to a frequently accessed service site, which makes it difficult to connect the user to the service site.

In order to improve the conventional method, a keyboard having a separate shortcut key for driving a web browser has appeared, and a user can easily access a designated service site by pushing the shortcut key.

However, the keyboard provided with a separate shortcut key is specially manufactured from the production stage, and the user of the general keyboard still needs to access the service site in the same manner as before. In addition, the keyboard provided with a separate shortcut key can designate only one service site. Therefore, in order to designate a plurality of service sites simultaneously, a plurality of shortcut keys must be additionally provided on the keyboard in proportion to the number. Accordingly, the keyboard providing a separate shortcut has a clear limitation in the expansion of the shortcut function.

Accordingly, there is an urgent need for a model for providing a shortcut key that can easily connect a user to a service site while working on an operating system (OS) or an application without affecting an existing computer input device using system.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, a website channel that provides a shortening function for accessing the service site in the state of not using the operating system (OS) or the application does not affect the existing input device using system An object of the present invention is to provide a providing method and a website channel providing system.

In addition, the present invention provides a website channel that can instantly access a service site frequently accessed through a single key button keydown or a plurality of key button keydowns, and detailed sites of the service site, thereby improving user convenience. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method and website channel providing system.

In addition, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for providing a website channel and a system for providing a website channel which can prevent the misuse of a shortcut function by allowing a function of a shortcut key to be flexibly activated according to an application in which the user works. It is done.

A website channel providing method for achieving the above object comprises the steps of: maintaining a memory means for correspondingly recording a first key button, an interrupt time, and a first address; and the first key button keyed down by a user. Measuring an ongoing keydown time, generating an interrupt signal when the measured keydown duration satisfies the interrupt time corresponding to the first key button, generating the interrupt signal, and Cooperating, identifying a first address corresponding to the first key button from the memory means, and driving a web browser to access the identified first address and providing the same to the user. do.

In another embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a website channel providing method comprising the steps of: maintaining memory means for correspondingly recording a first key button, an interrupt time, and a first address; Measuring a time for which the first key button keyed down by the user is continuously keyed down; and when the measured key down duration satisfies the interrupt time corresponding to the first key button, an interrupt signal Generating a first address corresponding to the first key button from the memory means in association with the generation of the interrupt signal; And accessing the identified first address and inputting a search word associated with the character string into a search box to provide the user with the web browser.

Hereinafter, a website channel providing method and a website channel providing system of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As used herein, the term "short key" may refer to a key that simply calls a frequently used function with a few key down when it is necessary to input an arbitrary command. For certain operating systems or applications, for example, a combination of key buttons, a keydown of [Ctrl] + [C] to 'copy function', a keystroke of [Ctrl] + [X] to 'cut function', It uses a shortcut key with 'Ctrl' + 'V' as the 'Attachment'.

In particular, in the present invention, when a user performing an arbitrary operation in an operating system (OS) or an application pushes a specific key button (or key button combination) for a set time, that is, key down the key button (key button combination) If the duration satisfies the set time, a web browser for accessing a predetermined address for the key button is provided to the corresponding user. Accordingly, the present invention enables a user to access a specific service site by simply pushing a specific key button while working on an operating system (OS) or an application, thereby enabling the user to start a web browser. After that, it is possible to eliminate the inconvenience of the conventional connection method such as inputting a desired address.

Furthermore, the shortening function in the present invention can cause the web browser access to the specified address to be suspended according to the application utilized by the user, so that the shortening function can not be misused. For example, when a user plays a game in a full-screen game application, the present invention can automatically disable the shortcut function, which causes the web browser to be inadvertently triggered by a key button pushed by the user as needed during the game. It can be prevented from being driven and provided.

1 is a view showing a specific configuration of a website channel providing system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The website channel providing system 100 may include a memory means 110, an interface means 120, and a web browser driving means 130.

The website channel providing system 100 may operate a web browser that accesses a predetermined address through keydown of a key button or a combination of key buttons while performing an operation utilizing a predetermined operating system (OS) or an application. This serves to enable fast user access to the service site.

In particular, the website channel providing system 100 of the present invention can utilize a combination of key buttons, for example, a combination of an independent key and all keys (independent key + auxiliary key) as a shortcut, so that a user accesses a detailed site within a specific service site. Of course, it is possible to facilitate the expansion of the number of high-intuitive, shortened connection sites by using the number of multiple cases due to the key combination.

Here, the independent key affects the existing general shortcut system when performing a shortcut function by a single stroke of a key without combining with other keys during operation in an operating system (OS) or an application except the case of 'game' among the keys of the keyboard. It may refer to all keys except the secondary key (defined below).

In addition, the auxiliary key helps to perform a shortcut function by combining with an independent key, and does not have a function by a single stroke. When an independent shortcut function occurs due to continuous key down, the [Ctrl +] key is pressed. A key that may adversely affect a combination keystroke such as C] may be referred to.

For example, the website channel providing system 100 identifies the service site to be accessed through the keydown of the first recognized first key button (independent key), and the second recognized second key button (auxiliary). Key + independent key) can be used to launch a web browser that accesses detailed sites within the service site.

In addition, in the website channel providing system 100, the combination of the first key button and the second key button may correspond to a site separate from the first recognized key button. The effect of expanding the number of sites can be obtained. For example, the website channel providing system 100 may recognize 'Sayclub (Sayclub.com)' through a push longer than a set duration of the first key button 'S', followed by a second key button 'B'. Through the push of 'Sayclub (Sayclub.com)' different from the 'Sori Sea (SoriBada.com)' can be recognized.

In the present specification, a key combination is illustrated as an example of a combination of an independent key (line) and all keys (independent key / secondary key (after)), but this is a reference shortcut key consisting of an auxiliary key (line) and an independent key (after). This is to avoid affecting the system.

First, the memory means 110 records the first key button, the interrupt time, and the first address in correspondence. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the first address may be a main network address of a specific service site, and the first key button may be any key of a keyboard to which a keystroke (symbol) is assigned to intuitively identify the service site. have. The correspondence between the first key button and the first address may be previously specified by the operator or user who operates the system and recorded in the memory means 110.

The interrupt time is a time that allows the system to recognize that the user's intention of the key button key down is not merely inputting the keystroke assigned to the key button, that is, the user who wants to utilize the key button as a shortcut key continues the key down. You can set it to the time you need to. For example, in FIG. 3 to be described later, 0.5 seconds is set as the interrupt time, and when the user keydowns any key button to 0.5 seconds or more, the website channel providing system 100 of the present invention is originally assigned to the key button. Instead of keystrokes, a predetermined hotkey function can be performed.

In addition, the memory means 110 may record a second address corresponding to the second key button. The second address may be a detailed address in the first address, and serves to induce web browser access to the detailed site in the service site.

That is, the memory means 110 corresponds to the primary network address of the specific service site with the first key button, and corresponds to the detailed network address of the detailed site in the service site for the combination of the first key button and the second key button. Can be recorded.

In another embodiment, the memory means 110 may be associated with each other by considering the combination of each keystroke (symbol) by the combination of the first key button and the second key button, apart from the service site corresponding to the first key button. The address of the service site may correspond to the combination of the first key button and the second key button.

2 shows an example of a memory means according to the invention.

The memory means 110 can record an address corresponding to the key button for each service site. The key button includes a first key button limited to an independent key and a second key button which is all keys (independent key / auxiliary key), and an address may include a main network address and a detailed network address corresponding to each key button. In addition, the memory means 110 may record the interrupt time set in relation to the first key button. In FIG. 2, an interrupt time '0.5 seconds' is set corresponding to the first key button.

In the memory means 110 of FIG. 2, the service site 'A search' corresponds to the first address 'A-search.com' corresponding to the first key button 'A' and the second key button 'D'. The second address 'A-search.com/dictionary/' is recorded.

Accordingly, when the keydown duration of the key button 'A' is longer than the interrupt time '0.5 seconds' by the user, the website channel providing system 100 of the present invention activates a shortcut function, and the key button' A user can be provided with a web browser accessed by the main network address 'A-search.com' of the service site 'A search' associated with 'A'.

In addition, when the key button 'A' is continuously keyed down by the user and at the same time the key button 'D' is keyed down, the website channel providing system 100 performs the key down for the key button 'A + D'. Can be set up so that a web browser driven according to the system can be accessed at the detailed network address 'A-search.com/dictionary/' of the service site 'A search'.

In the memory means 110 of FIG. 2, the service site 'C Music' corresponds to the first address 'C-music.com' corresponding to the first key button 'C' and the second key button 'M'. The second address 'C-music.com/mall/' is recorded.

As a result, the keydown time for the key button 'C' continues to satisfy the interrupt time of 0.5 seconds, so that the web browser running is accessed to the main network address 'C-music.com' of the service site 'C Music'. In addition, it is possible to create an environment in which a web browser driven by the key down of the key button C + M is accessed to the detailed network address 'C-music.com/mall/' of the service site 'C Music'.

In the above-described embodiment, the time point at which the hot key function is activated is limited to the time point at which the key down duration of the key button satisfies the set interrupt time. However, in the present invention, it is a matter of course that the activation time of the shortcut key can be determined in various ways.

As an example, according to the present invention, the keypoint duration may be determined using the number of keystrokes repeatedly received according to a predetermined time setting on the operating system without measuring the keydown duration.

For example, if the key button of the key button continues, the operating system regards the pressed key button as being repeatedly input by the user and transmits a keystroke signal. In the present invention, the number of times of receiving the keystroke signal is repeatedly input at least a predetermined number of times. In this case, it may be determined that the keydown continues for a predetermined time and the corresponding time point may be determined as the activation time of the shortcut function.

The key button in this embodiment has been described by exemplifying keys included in the keyboard among the components of the computer, but this is for convenience of explanation, in addition to the keys constituting the keypad of the mobile terminal, left / right click button of the computer mouse Of course, it can be illustrated.

Referring back to FIG. 1, the interface means 120 measures the time for which the first key button keyed down by the user is continuously keyed down. That is, the interface unit 120 measures the time between the key down time KD and the key up time KU when the time when the first key button is down is KD and the time when the key button is up is KU.

The web browser driving means 130 generates an interrupt signal when the measured keydown duration satisfies the interrupt time corresponding to the first key button. Here, the interrupt signal is a signal related to making a user connection to a specific service site in place of an input of a keystroke (symbol) assigned to the first key button. For example, the first key button to which the letter 'A' is assigned is set in the OS together with the initial 'A' input when the operating system (OS) or the application maintains the key down state without the key up (KU) after the key down (KD). After the time delay (Typematic Delay) is repeatedly responsible for the 'A' input, if the interrupt signal is generated, the website channel providing system 100 of the present invention, even if the first key button maintains the key down state Instead of entering the letter 'A' repeatedly, activate the shortcut function to allow access to a specific service site.

The interrupt signal may be generated when the first key button (or second key button) is keyed down by the user and remains in the key down state for more than a set interrupt time. That is, when the user pushes a key button designated as a shortcut key for more than the interrupt time, the website channel providing system 100 generates an interrupt signal for invalidating the automatic repetitive input of the keystroke originally assigned to the key button.

As described above, the web browser driving means 130 continuously pushes a predetermined key button over an interrupt time by a user who wants to access a specific service site while working in a predetermined operating system (OS) or application. Therefore, it serves to generate an interrupt signal.

In addition, the web browser driving means 130 identifies the first address corresponding to the first key button from the memory means 110 in association with the generation of the interrupt signal. That is, the web browser driving means 130 confirms that the first key button is continuously pushed over the set interrupt time, and serves to operate the first key button as a shortcut key. The interrupt time can be flexibly set by the operator of the system, and the operator sets the interrupt time by whether the user wants to input a keystroke (symbol) assigned to a key button, or by driving a web browser by a hotkey function. You can set the minimum time to determine if you want.

For example, in an environment in which the user can set 0.5 second as the interrupt time and the first key button to which 'A' is assigned by the user is keyed down to input the alphabet 'A', the web browser driving means If the keydown of the first key button lasts less than 0.5 seconds, the 130 may determine that the keydown intention of the user is an input of the letter 'A' and allow the associated processor to be performed. On the other hand, under the same environmental conditions, if the keydown of the first key button lasts more than 0.5 seconds, the web browser driving means 130 confirms that the intention of the keydown is the driving of the web browser, and the memory means 110. In this case, the address 'A-search.com' corresponding to the first key button may be identified and 'A' input at the key down time of the first key button may be cancelled.

In addition, the web browser driving means 130 drives and provides a web browser for accessing the identified first address to the user. That is, the web browser driving means 130 allows the user to connect to the service site of the first address previously designated according to the key down of the first key button.

In the above example in which the keydown duration for the first key button 'A' satisfies the set interrupt time (0.5 seconds), the web browser driving means 130 is configured to have a first address identified from the memory means 110. You can run a web browser that accesses 'A-search.com'.

If the second key button, which is an arbitrary key (independent key / secondary key), is down while the interrupt signal associated with the first key button is continued, the web browser driving means 130 accesses the second address. You can run a web browser. That is, as the web browser driving means 130 pushes the first key button and the second key button in combination by the user, the memory means 110 identifies the second address which is a detailed network address in the main network address. Induce a user connection to the identified second address.

In the above-described example, when the second key button 'D' is continuously keyed down by the user in a state where the first key button 'A' is keyed down, the web browser driving means 130 is connected to the first key button. A web browser that accesses a second address (A-search.com/dictionary/) associated with a second key button instead of the associated first address may be provided to the corresponding user.

 Accordingly, according to the present invention, it is possible to enable direct user access to not only the main page of a specific service site but also the detail page of the service site only by pushing a designated hot key.

As another example, the second address may not be a detailed network in the network address. In this case, the web browser driving means 130 may significantly improve the range of websites to be accessed through the shortening function according to the present invention.

In this embodiment, the web browser accessing the second address is driven as the second key button, which is an arbitrary key (independent key / auxiliary key), is pressed under the condition that the first key button continues the key down. As described above, in addition, even when the first key button and the second key button are simultaneously keyed down, it may be possible to drive the web browser to access the second address. In addition, in the present embodiment, when two types of separate addresses are set according to a recognition relationship after each key for a specific combination of two buttons, the corresponding address may be selected by an operator or a user who operates the system.

In addition, when the key down duration of the first key button satisfies the set interrupt time m but the second key button is down before being keyed up, the website channel providing system 100 accesses the first address. Instead of driving, the driving of the web browser that accesses the second address may be performed. To this end, the website channel providing system 100 allows the web browser to be driven in real time at the key down time of the second key button, so that the web browser is driven by an interrupt signal associated with the key down of the second key button. To be controlled.

In the case of key down for a specific key for 'm' seconds, the internal technical method for the external process of activating the shortcut function according to the present invention is (1) the time when the KU occurs by the elapsed time check module after generating the KD described above. There may be a stop of the function of the check module, and (2) there may be a stop of the function of the time check module when KU occurs by the stroke count check module repeatedly occurring without KU after KD occurs.

Said (1) is replaced by the above-mentioned description, and said (2) is demonstrated.

There is a keydown duration check module in the window, and the keydown duration check module starts automatic repetitive input after the elapse of a time value corresponding to "Typematic Delay".

Number of additional repeated keystrokes since first stroke 'x' = TypematicRate * ('m'-TypematicDelay)

'm' = TypematicDelay + 'x' / TypematicRate, TypematicRate Value: 6 ~ 30 (based on Windows)

In this case, the same behavior as that of the user type can be performed by designating the time point of occurrence of the shortened function as an automatic repetitive input signal generated only after the first stroke without the time check module of the application stage. For example, the interrupt time designation can be made in the setting menu in the control panel supported by the OS. However, in the case of a window, the interrupt time can be selected from four types of 0.25 second, 0.5 second, 0.75 second, and 1 second.

3 is a view for explaining the generation of a shortcut function and the generation of a combination shortcut function according to the present invention.

As described above, the interrupt signal is defined as a signal for invalidating the repetitive input of the keystroke (symbol) assigned to the key button, and after generation of the interrupt signal, the hotkey function is activated in the website channel providing system 100. Explained.

In the general OS environment, when a key button is pressed down, it can be seen that keystrokes (symbols) assigned to the key button are repeatedly inputted at periodic time intervals (for example, 0.1 second). It is apparent that the duration can be achieved even when the interrupt time is not satisfied, and invalidating the periodic input of such a keystroke (symbol) is also performed by the interrupt signal.

However, in the present specification, the interrupt signal is generated for convenience of description to activate a hotkey function instead of an input function of a conventional keystroke (symbol) for an arbitrary key button after the keydown duration satisfies the interrupt time. The description will be limited to that.

In FIG. 3, an interrupt time m is set to 0.5 second after the first key button 'A' is keyed down (KD).

3 illustrates that the interrupt signal is generated after the keydown duration of the first key button 'A' satisfies the interrupt time 0.5sec.

First, in FIG. 3, i), the website channel providing system 100 is referred to as "shortening function generation / 'A' stroke cancellation" when the keydown duration of the first key button 'A' satisfies the set interrupt time m. You can generate a result. That is, the website channel providing system 100 cancels the input of the keystroke (symbol) alphabet A originally assigned to the first key button 'A' as the keydown duration satisfies the set time m. To be activated. In addition, the website channel providing system 100 may shorten by the generated result value when the first key button 'A' is keyed up (KU), that is, when the key down of the first key button is released. By exerting the function, the web browser for accessing the first address A-search.com corresponding to the first key button 'A' is driven.

Further, the combination shortening in which the second key button is keyed down by the user while the interrupt signal associated with the first key button is continuously generated will be described.

In ii) of FIG. 3, under the condition that the first key button 'A' performs key down and the key down duration does not pass the set interrupt time m, the second key button 'D' is keyed down before the interrupt time m. The case is illustrated. At this time, the website channel providing system 100 generates a result value of "combining shortening function generation / 'A' stroke cancellation" when the second key button 'D' is keyed down. That is, the website channel providing system 100 according to the key down of the first key button 'A' and the second key button 'D', the keystroke alphabet A originally assigned to the first key button 'A'. Cancels the input and activates the Combination Shortcut function. In addition, when the second channel button 'D' is keyed down, the website channel providing system 100 performs a combination shortening function based on the generated result value, and thus, the first key button 'A' and the second key button. The web browser accessing the second address A-search.com/dictionary/ corresponding to the combination of 'D' is driven.

In (iii) of FIG. 3, the second key button 'D' is keyed down after the interrupt time m under the condition that the first key button 'A' performs key down and the key down duration elapses. Illustrate the case. At this time, the website channel providing system 100 may generate a result value of "shortening function generation / 'A'stroke cancellation" when the keydown duration of the first key button' A 'satisfies the interrupt time m. Can be. In addition, the website channel providing system 100 generates a result value of "combining shortening function generation / shortening function canceling" when the second key button 'D' is keyed down. That is, according to the key down of the first key button 'A' and the second key button 'D', the website channel providing system 100 inputs the keystroke (symbol) alphabet A and shortens it alone by the first key button. Cancel the functions one after another and generate only combination shortcuts as the result. In addition, when the second channel button 'D' is keyed down, the website channel providing system 100 performs a combination shortening function based on the generated result value, and thus, the first key button 'A' and the second key button. The web browser accessing the second address A-search.com/dictionary/ corresponding to the combination of 'D' is driven.

In another embodiment, when the website channel providing system 100 prepares an address corresponding to a combination of the first key button 'A' and the second key button 'D', for example, AD-money.com, It is also possible to drive a web browser to access the address AD-money.com according to the combination of the first key button and the second key button.

Hereinafter, referring to FIG. 4, a character string is selected by a user during operation in a predetermined operating system (OS) or an application, and a shortening (combination shortening) function is exerted in association with it.

4 is a view for explaining a web browser driving inputting a search word associated with a selected character string as an example of a shortcut function according to the present invention.

The interface means 120 measures the time for which the first key button keyed down by the user is continually keyed down together with the selection of the character string from the user. For example, a user may designate a string (combination of syllables, words, phrases, etc.) requesting a search as a block while working in an operating system (OS) or an application, and simultaneously push the first key button. At this time, the interface means 120 provides an environment for determining whether the keydown duration satisfies the interrupt time by measuring the duration after the first keybutton is keyed down KD.

The web browser driving means 130 generates an interrupt signal for continually invalidating the input of the keystroke (symbol) assigned to the first key button after the point of time when the keydown duration satisfies the interrupt time.

In (i) of FIG. 4, the text string 'offside?' In any text document is designated as a block by the user. In addition, the user may push the first key button 'A' along with the selection of the character string and satisfy the set interrupt time to continue the key down of the first key button 'A'. In this environment, the web browser driving means 130 generates an interrupt signal for invalidating the input of the keystroke A assigned to the first key button 'A' and activating the function of the shortcut key associated with the first key button 'A'. Done.

The web browser driving means 130 may identify an address corresponding to the first key button from the memory means 110 in association with the generation of the interrupt signal. To this end, the memory means 110 stores a key network address of a predetermined service site in correspondence with the key button designated as the first key button among the keys of the keyboard.

  In the above-described example, the web browser driving means 130 satisfies the set interrupt time of the keydown duration of the first key button 'A', and the address' A-search.com 'may be identified from the memory means 110 of FIG.

In addition, the web browser driving means 130 may access to the identified address, and at the same time, may drive a web browser in which a search word having the same content associated with a character string is input to the search box and provide the same to the user. The search term may mean a search keyword that is determined to identify meaning among syllables, words, and phrases included in the character string.

If the selected character string is text of an editor program, even if a specific key button is keyed down (KD) for the purpose of a short search function, the selected character string is overwritten with a keystroke (symbol) assigned to the corresponding key button. Can cause problems. To solve this problem, if the keydown duration of the key button satisfies the interrupt time, the website channel providing system 100 of the present invention activates the shortcut function and at the same time overwrites the input character string to return to the previous state. May be restored.

When the editor program is used, the space bar button and various symbol buttons may be excluded as the independent key. This is to always ensure the input of commonly used repetitive keystrokes (symbols) and to prevent the activation error of the hotkey function.

In addition, the web browser driving means 130 is applied to the key down (KD) of a specific key button only when a character string is selected for the purpose of improving visual clarity and continuity with respect to the "shortcut search process by selecting a string" while the editor program is in use. In response to this, the input of the first keystroke allocated may be interrupted and held, but only the keyup KU of the key button before the time of the shortcut function is generated may be allowed to input the keystroke assigned to the key button.

Accordingly, the website channel providing system 100 intends to "short search by selecting a string" while using the editor program based on the fact that key down and key up of the key button are performed at the same time when the general text editor is being operated. With the continuous keydown of a particular keybutton, the interrupted signal can be generated while maintaining visual clarity without the disappearance and replacement of the assigned keystroke value input of the particular keybutton. In addition, the website channel providing system 100 may appropriately control the process of generating the interrupt signal, such as not to feel uncomfortable even during normal operation, not shortening function.

In ii) of FIG. 4, 'offside' which can be meaningfully identified with respect to the character string 'offside?' Designated as a block is illustrated as a search word. Subsequently, the web browser driving means 130 accesses the identified address 'A-search.com', and may drive the web browser to automatically input the determined search term 'offside' into the search box and provide the same to the user. .

The website channel providing system 100 of the present invention may perform a search operation by the automatically entered search word in parallel with a user access of a web browser in which a search word associated with a character string is automatically input into a search box. To this end, the website channel providing system 100 may further include a search means 140. That is, the search means 140 searches for a content related to a search word entered in a web browser search box (eg, a keyword input window of a search site) in a predetermined DB, and serves to expose a search result to a user.

In ii) of FIG. 4, a search is performed on the search word 'offside', and the search results 'offside column' and 'offsite controversy' are displayed as a search result on a driven web browser.

As another example, when the key down of the second key button occurs before the key up signal is generated after the key down of the first key button, the web browser driving means 130 accesses the second address in the first address. At the same time, a detailed web browser in which a search word associated with a character string is input into a search box may be provided to the user.

In the above-described example, the web browser driving means 130 determines the second address 'A-search.com/dictionary/' according to the key down of the first key button 'A' and the second key button 'D'. It can be identified from the memory means 110. In addition, the web browser driving means 130 accesses the identified second address 'A-search.com/dictionary/', and the detailed web browser in which the determined 'offside' is automatically input into the search box is driven to the user. Can be provided to

As another embodiment of the present invention, when a word is input in an Internet address bar or a text box (eg, a toolbar) on a browser, the first key button is keyed down and the key down of the first key button is longer than a set time. Is continued, the website channel providing system 100 causes the search operation by the word entered in the internet address bar or the text box to be performed at a predetermined service site, and also switches the page whose search result is the page value. do.

Accordingly, according to the present invention, when a word is input into an Internet address bar or a text box, the user inputs a word using a shortcut function of the present invention without the procedure of accessing a normal search site or pressing a search function button subsequent to such a process. It is possible to provide an environment for promptly providing a user with a search result of an intended search site related to the word. Moreover, in view of the competition of major portals that want to monopolize shortened search paths through the installation of toolbars, this can greatly improve user convenience by improving accessibility to various search sites.

In the present specification, an example of driving a web browser for accessing a specific address with only a push of a shortcut key is provided as an example. However, depending on the application working, the shortening function by the continuous keydown of a specific key of the present invention may rather hinder normal application's performance. To prevent this, the website channel providing system 100 of the present invention automatically stops web browser access to the set address according to the application utilized by the user so that the shortening function is not misused. That is, the website channel providing system 100 may have a list of exclusive modes, and after confirming whether the application currently being worked on by the user is an application included in the list of exclusive modes, in the case of exclusive mode, temporarily reducing the shortening function. Will stop. Here, the exclusive mode application may be an example of an application requiring no shortening function, for example, a game application using a full screen.

The website channel providing system 100 uses the handle of the window to determine whether the application to be implemented is an application using a full screen. Here, the handle of the window contains information of the window and may refer to a function in, for example, C ++ for recognizing a state of a passage for controlling the window.

For example, the website channel providing system 100 may be a function in C ++,

HANDLE Window = FindWindow

And IsFullMode (Window) with Window as a variable.

You can verify that the application you are implementing is full-screen by calling and returning 'true / false' in the response.

Accordingly, according to the present invention, it is possible to easily determine whether the application implemented by using the window handle is the exclusive mode application, that is, the application using the full screen.

Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a shortening function for accessing a service site without affecting an existing input device using system while using an operating system or an application.

In addition, according to the present invention, a service site frequently accessed through a single keybutton keydown or a plurality of keybutton keydowns and even detailed sites of the service site can be immediately accessed, thereby improving the user's convenience of access. Can be.

In addition, according to the present invention, it is possible to prevent the misuse of the shortcut function by flexibly enabling the shortcut function according to the application in which the user works.

Hereinafter, the workflow of the website channel providing system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

5 is a flowchart illustrating a website channel providing method in detail according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The website channel providing method according to the present embodiment may be performed by the website channel providing system 100 described above.

First, the website channel providing system 100 maintains the memory means 110 which records the selected key button, the interrupt time, and the address in correspondence (S510). In step S510, a process of recording a first address corresponding to a first key button defined as an independent key, and a second address corresponding to a second key button of all keys (including both an independent key and a supplementary key). to be. As described above, the first address is a main network address of a given service site, and the second address is a detailed network address of a detailed site in the service site. In another embodiment, the second address may be a combination address corresponding to a combination example of the first key button and the second key button.

The designation of such a key button and the designation of an address corresponding to the designated key button may be predetermined in advance by the user or the operator of the present system and stored in the memory means 110 (see FIG. 2).

The interrupt time is a time that allows the system to recognize that the user's intention of the key button key down is not merely inputting the keystroke assigned to the key button, that is, the user who wants to utilize the key button as a shortcut key continues the key down. You can set it to the time you need to. For example, in FIG. 3 to be described later, 0.5 seconds is set as the interrupt time, and when the user keydowns any key button to 0.5 seconds or more, the website channel providing system 100 of the present invention is originally assigned to the key button. Instead of keystrokes, a predetermined hotkey function can be performed.

In addition, the website channel providing system 100 measures the time that the key button keyed down by the user is continuously keyed down (S520). In operation S520, the first key button is pushed by the user, and the time for which the push lasts is measured by the interface means 120.

Next, the website channel providing system 100 generates an interrupt signal when the measured keydown duration satisfies the interrupt time corresponding to the first key button (S530). This step (S530) is a process of generating an interrupt signal when the time for which the first key button is continuously keyed down by the user satisfies the set interrupt time. The interrupt signal invalidates the Auto-Repeat input of the original keystroke (symbol) assigned to the keybutton.

In the step S530, the website channel providing system 100 may generate an interrupt signal associated with the second key button when the second key button is down while the interrupt signal associated with the first key button continues. have. That is, the website channel providing system 100 generates an interrupt signal related to enabling a shortcut function through combination with a second key button instead of the first key button alone in an environment where the second key button is down. do.

In addition, the website channel providing system 100 identifies an address corresponding to the key button from the memory means 110 in association with the generation of the interrupt signal (S540). In operation S540, an input of a keystroke (symbol) assigned to a first key button is invalidated through the interrupt signal, and a first address corresponding to the first key button is identified according to activation of a shortcut key function. .

In the step S540, the website channel providing system 100 determines whether the key-up time point KU is after the set m under the condition that the set interrupt time is elapsed m after the key down time KD. If the key up is performed after m as a result of the determination, the activation of the shortening function is recognized and the first address corresponding to the first key button is identified from the memory means 110. If the duration of the interrupt signal is terminated before the set time m, i.e., if a key up occurs before m, the website channel providing system 100 first inputs the first key button already input at the first key down time KD. It does not act on the keystrokes (symbols) assigned to it (eg the letter 'A').

Also, in the step S540, the website channel providing system 100, in the case where the second key button is keyed down after the first key button is keyed down (or at the same time), the first key in the memory means 110. A second address corresponding to the combination of the button and the second key button can be identified.

Subsequently, the website channel providing system 100 drives a web browser for accessing the identified address and provides the same to the user (S550). In step S550, a web browser connecting to the first address identified by the keydown of the first key button or a web browser connecting to the second address identified by the keydown of the first and second key buttons is provided. It is the process of driving. That is, the website channel providing system 100 allows a corresponding user to be connected to a service site of a specific address as the user pushes a designated independent key or all keys (eg, independent key + independent key / auxiliary key).

Accordingly, according to the present invention, even when the user is working on a predetermined operating system (OS) or an application, it is possible to immediately access the service site by keying down a designated key button related to a shortcut key.

In another embodiment of the present invention, the website channel providing system 100 measures the time for which the first key button keyed down by the user is continuously keyed down together with the selection of the character string from the user, and the measured keydown If the duration satisfies the predetermined interrupt time, an interrupt signal can be generated. In this case, the website channel providing system 100 may identify an address corresponding to the keyed down key button, access the identified address, and drive a web browser in which a search word associated with the character string is automatically entered into a search box. Can be provided to the user. Thereafter, the website channel providing system 100 may expose the search result to the user in response to the input of the search word.

Therefore, according to the present invention, an automatic search process can be performed using a quick access to a service site and a selected character string, thereby maximizing the convenience of use.

In addition, the website channel providing system 100 according to the present invention automatically stops the web browser connection to the set address according to an application utilized by the user so that the shortening function is not misused. That is, the website channel providing system 100 may have a list of exclusive modes, and after confirming whether the application currently being worked on by the user is an application included in the list of exclusive modes, in the case of exclusive mode, temporarily reducing the shortening function. Will stop.

Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a shortening function for accessing a service site without affecting an existing input device using system while using an operating system or an application.

In addition, according to the present invention, a service site frequently accessed through a single key button key down or a plurality of key button key downs and even a detailed site of the service site can be immediately accessed, thereby improving user convenience.

In addition, according to the present invention, it is possible to prevent the misuse of the shortcut function by allowing the function of the shortcut key to be flexibly activated according to the application in which the user works.
