ActiveX support system and method {SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SUPPORTING ACTIVE X}

Embodiments of the present invention relate to ActiveX support systems and methods.

Recently, a mobile terminal such as a mobile communication terminal or a personal digital assistant (PDA) is widely used. Such a mobile terminal is not only used for a simple phone call or schedule management but also an image by an attached digital camera. The range of applications such as shooting, watching satellite broadcasts, playing games, computer communication, and Internet access is increasing.

Mobile terminals capable of wireless Internet use some shortened WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) browsers instead of browsers on personal computers (hereinafter, PCs) due to limited resources (memory, screen, communication speed). The WAP is a global standard protocol for Internet information retrieval in mobile terminals such as mobile phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), etc. with the development of wireless communication.

However, in terms of users accessing the Internet using such mobile terminals, there are still many limitations because there is a lack of web servers for processing them and the environment itself is different from that of general computers.

For example, in the case of a web browser of a general PC terminal, when parsing the HTML body in the received web data and encountering a phrase / source associated with an Active X object, it is determined to be Active X, and then installed in the terminal or created an object, Or it branches to a later action to find an application that needs to be linked within a function called an Active X object.

However, when accessing a website of Active X environment in a browser of a mobile terminal that does not have an environment that can be dynamically installed, the user cannot ignore the syntax. Therefore, when the user of the mobile terminal encounters the corresponding function on the browser screen, There is a possibility of feeling uncomfortable about not doing any operation and judging that the mobile terminal is malfunctioning.

In addition, the current terminal-based browser can support Active X only in PC-based OS provided by Microsoft. That is, since Active X has a different component size and operation method, terminal-based browsers that have different memory requirements or operation methods that are limited to the terminal cannot support Active X. Accordingly, MS-specific APIs defined as Active X Object APIs also cannot be provided in terminal-based browsers.

Accordingly, the present invention proposes a method of enabling a service similar to a PC by activating an ActiveX object of a component pre-installed in a terminal when a website is accessed.
