The present invention relates to a method and system for retrieving information through the Internet. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method and system for providing a range-specific search using a shortcut key in retrieving information through a wired / wireless internet network.
In general, an information retrieval service provided by a portal site on the Internet or the like includes an integrated retrieval service and a range retrieval service.
The integrated search service performs searches across all areas on the Internet, and the scoped search service only searches for specific search ranges specified by the user. Here, the search range may include a full text, a dictionary, news, images, and the like.
On the other hand, when a web site is generally accessed, the link information that links to the information is listed. In the terminal with enhanced convenience, such as a desktop or laptop, you can select link information directly using the mouse. In the terminal with increased portability, such as a mobile communication terminal or a portable Internet-enabled terminal, use a key input unit without a mouse. Select the link information by moving the cursor.
Here, in using the information retrieval service through the website, a user such as a desktop or a laptop enters a search word in a search box, and then presses an enter key on a keyboard or selects a search button on a monitor with a mouse. By doing so, the integrated search can be performed.
In addition, after the user inputs a search word, the user may perform a range search by selecting a search range designation button such as a text, dictionary, news, image, etc. on the monitor with a mouse.
As such, when a user performs an integrated search on a desktop or a laptop, the search can be performed immediately by pressing the enter key on the keyboard. In the case of a ranged search, the user specifies a search range using a mouse. It is inconvenient to select a button separately.
On the other hand, in the case of a mobile communication terminal or a portable Internet-enabled device in which the number of keys is limited to increase the portability, the user inputs a search word in a search box and then selects a search button or a search range designation button. To move the cursor using.
Here, in the case of the integrated search, after the user enters a search term, the search button can be selected by using a relatively small number of direction key operations, but in the case of a ranged search, a specific search range button can be selected by using several direction key operations. There is a problem that can be.
In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention uses a shortcut key mapped to each search range when a user, such as a desktop or laptop, who is accustomed to using a keyboard, uses a range search service through the Internet. Provides a method and system for requesting a request.
The present invention also provides a method and system for requesting a search by using a shortcut key mapped to each search range when a user such as a mobile communication terminal or a portable Internet support terminal uses an information search service through the wireless Internet. do.
