Referring to FIG. 6 , one or more extracted URL text information may be displayed adjacent to URL information in an execution screen of the first application program. In addition, the extracted one or more URL text information may be displayed to enable text selection. In addition, the extracted URL text information may be displayed overlapping the execution screen.

7 is a diagram illustrating another example of the present invention in which extracted URL text information is displayed on the display unit 312 .

Referring to FIG. 7 , one or more extracted URL text information may be displayed adjacent to URL information in an execution screen of the first application program. In particular, each of the one or more execution buttons may be displayed adjacent to the extracted one or more URL text information. The execution button is a button for executing a web page corresponding to URL text information through a second application program that provides a web browsing service.

Referring back to FIG. 5 , in step S540 , the processor 314 executes a web page corresponding to the URL text information through the second application program.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 6 , one or more URL text information is displayed on the display unit 312 , and when the user selects any one of the one or more URL text information, the processor 314 . may execute the second application program and input URL text information into the second application program to execute a web page corresponding to the URL text information.

Further, according to another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 7 , one or more URL text information is displayed on the display unit 312 together with an execution button, and the user selects any one URL text among one or more URL text information. When an execution button corresponding to the information is clicked, the processor 314 may execute a web page corresponding to the URL text information through the second application program.

Therefore, according to the present invention, URL information displayed on the first application program can be efficiently extracted.

Also, according to the present invention, a web page corresponding to the extracted URL information can be immediately executed through a web browsing application program. Accordingly, the user can perform web browsing without directly inputting URL text.

Meanwhile, according to another embodiment of the present invention, an operation similar to the above operation may be performed using the user's terminal device. That is, when the URL text information is selected by the user, the processor 314 may generate an execution command of the URL text information, and the communication unit 311 may transmit the URL text information and the execution command of the URL text information to the user terminal device. . In this case, the user terminal device may execute the web page corresponding to the URL text information based on the URL text information and an execution command of the URL text information.

Meanwhile, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the extracted one or more URL text information is not separately displayed on the display unit 312 , and an execution button may be displayed adjacent to the URL information in the execution screen. This is as shown in FIG. 8 .

That is, the processor 314 extracts URL text information corresponding to the URL information by parsing the script data of the first application program, and an execution button for executing a web page corresponding to the URL text information through the second application program. It can be created and displayed adjacent to the URL information in the execution screen. Accordingly, the web page corresponding to the URL information can be executed without designing the execution screen.

In addition, even if all the components constituting the embodiment of the present invention are described as being combined or operated as one, the present invention is not necessarily limited to this embodiment, and all components within the scope of the present invention are One or more may be selectively combined to operate. In addition, all of the components may be implemented as one independent hardware, but some or all of the components are selectively combined to perform some or all functions of the combined components in one or a plurality of hardware program modules It may be implemented as a computer program having Codes and code segments constituting the computer program can be easily deduced by those skilled in the art of the present invention. Such a computer program is stored in a computer readable storage medium (Computer Readable Media), read and executed by the computer, thereby implementing the embodiment of the present invention. The storage medium of the computer program includes a magnetic recording medium, an optical recording medium, and a storage medium including a semiconductor recording device. In addition, the computer program implementing the embodiment of the present invention includes a program module that is transmitted in real time through an external device.

As described above, the present invention has been described with reference to the illustrated drawings, but the present invention is not limited by the embodiments and drawings disclosed in this specification, and various methods can be obtained by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical spirit of the present invention. It is obvious that variations can be made. In addition, although the effects according to the configuration of the present invention are not explicitly described and described while describing the embodiments of the present invention, it is natural that the effects predictable by the configuration should also be recognized.
