Markup language element to provide label for stored URI
View Patent ↗A BOOKMARK element is proposed to be included within the HEAD element of a markup language document. Such a BOOKMARK element is intended to provide a default bookmark label that is to be associated with a Universal Resource Identifier (URI) of a markup language document when storing the URI of the markup language document as a bookmark or favorite. A short, to-the-point label suggested by an author of the markup language document may be seen as beneficial particularly to users of mobile communication devices. Such a suggested label may also greatly improve the user experience of desktop-based browsers.
1. A method of storing a Universal Resource Identifier (URI) of a document composed in a markup language, said method comprising:
storing said URI of said document, thereby creating a stored URI;
determining a label based on selecting between a value of a first attribute of an element of said document and a value of a second attribute of said element; and
storing said label in association with said stored URI.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein said markup language is the Hyper-Text Markup Language.
3. The method of claim 2 wherein said element is a first element and said first element is included in the HEAD element of said document.
4. The method of claim 3 further comprising receiving an instruction to store said URI of said document.
5. The method of claim 1 wherein said markup language is the eXtensible Markup Language.
6. The method of claim 1 further comprising:
determining a description of said document based on a value of a third attribute of said element; and
storing said description in association with said stored URI.
7. The method of claim 1 wherein said storing further comprises:
determining a folder name based on a value of a third attribute of said element of said document; and
storing said stored URI in a folder having said folder name.
8. The method of claim 1 further comprising:
determining a Universal Resource Identifier of a file containing an image based on a value of a third attribute of said element of said document;
obtaining said file containing said image from a machine hosting said image, where a name for said machine may be determined from said URI; and
storing a rendering of said image in association with said stored URI.
9. The method of claim 1 wherein said second attribute of said element represents a character string no more than half a length of said first attribute.
10. A system for displaying documents composed in a markup language, said system comprising a processor that, upon execution of computer-executable instructions, adapts said system to:
store said URI of said document, thereby creating a stored URI;
determine a label based on selecting between a value of a first attribute of an element of said document and a value of a second attribute of said element; and
store said label in association with said stored URI.
11. A computer readable medium containing computer-executable instructions that, when performed by processor in a system for displaying documents composed in a markup language, cause said processor to:
store said URI of said markup language document thereby creating a stored URI;
determine a label based on selecting between a value of a first attribute of an element of said document and a value of a second attribute of said element; and
store said label in association with said stored URI.
12. A method of generating a document in a markup language, said method comprising:
providing a first label as a value of a first attribute of an element of said document; and
providing a second label as a value of a second attribute of said element,
said first label and said second label for use by a system for displaying markup language documents capable of selecting one of said first label and said second label for storage in association with a Universal Resource Identifier of said document.
13. The method of claim 12 wherein said second label is an abbreviated version of said first label.
14. A system for generating a document in a markup language, said system comprising a processor that, upon execution of computer-executable instructions, adapts said system to:
provide a first label as a value of a first attribute of an element of said document; and
provide a second label as a value of a second attribute of said element;
where one of said first label and said second label may be stored, in a system for displaying markup language documents, in association with a stored Universal Resource Identifier of said document.
15. A computer readable medium containing computer-executable instructions that, when performed by processor in a system for generating a document in a markup language, cause said processor to:
provide a first label as a value of a first attribute of an element of said document; and
provide a second label as a value of a second attribute of said element
said first label and said second label for use by a system for displaying markup language documents capable of selecting one of said first label and said second label for storage in association with a stored Universal Resource Identifier of said document.
16. A method of storing a Universal Resource Identifier (URI) of a document composed in a markup language, said method comprising:
storing said URI of said document, thereby creating a stored URI;
determining a value for a first attribute of an element of said document;
determining a value for a second attribute of said element;
selecting a candidate label value as either said value of said first attribute or said value of said second attribute; and
storing said candidate label value in association with said stored URI.
