Abstract

In accordance with various embodiments of the present disclosure, a method, an application, a browser, and an electronic device for providing webpage content are provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises: detecting a sliding action of a user when a first content webpage is displayed, and providing a second content webpage based on the detection, wherein the second content webpage is a new content webpage obtained based on the first content webpage.

Claims (45)

1. A method for providing content webpage, comprising:

detecting a sliding action of a user on an electronic device when a first content webpage is displayed; and

providing a second content webpage displayed in a suspended window based on the detection, without returning to a node webpage of a portal website, to which both the first content webpage and a list of content webpages including the second content webpage are related, wherein the suspended window provides the list of content webpages including the second content webpage, wherein:

the second content webpage is provided when a parameter obtained based on the detection reaches a predetermined threshold value, the predetermined threshold value being pre-determined by at least using statistical data of browsing habits of the user, the browsing habits including reading a new content webpage by performing a sliding action;

when the parameter obtained based on the detection reaches the predetermined threshold value, requesting the second content webpage from a server, the second content webpage: i.) is a new content webpage recommended by the server, ii.) is pre-stored in the electronic device, and iii) having an increased pre-read hit ratio when the first content webpage is displayed.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the list of content webpages, including the second content webpage includes a list of news recommended to the user.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the sliding action is a sliding on a screen of the electronic device towards a left direction.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the parameter includes a path length of the sliding action.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the parameter includes and a speed of the sliding action.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein providing the second content webpage based on the detection includes:

requesting the second content webpage from the server; and

receiving the second content webpage from the server.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a domain name of the second content webpage is different from a domain name of the first content webpage.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the electronic device comprising a memory and a processor, the processor being configured for storing instructions for controlling the processor.

9. The method according to claim 1 , further including:

when the parameter obtained based on the detection exceeds the predetermined threshold value, requesting the second content webpage from the server,

wherein the requesting includes information of a currently-browsed webpage by the user, and an operation history of the browsing behaviors including a frequency of the user's sliding actions for new content.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the predetermined threshold value is dynamically adjusted corresponding to browsing behaviors of the user for different types of webpages.

11. A non-transitory computer storage medium containing program instructions for, when executed by a processor, performing a method for providing content webpage, the method comprising:

detecting a sliding action of a user when a first content webpage is displayed; and

providing a second content webpage displayed in a suspended window based on the detection, without returning to a node webpage of a portal website, to which both the first content webpage and a list of content webpages including the second content webpage are related, wherein the suspended window provides the list of content webpages including the second content webpage, wherein:

the second content webpage is provided when a parameter obtained based on the detection reaches a predetermined threshold value, the predetermined threshold value being pre-determined by at least using statistical data of browsing habits of the user, the browsing habits including reading a new content webpage by performing a sliding action; and

when the parameter obtained based on the detection reaches the predetermined threshold value, requesting the second content webpage from a server, the second content webpage: i.) is a new content webpage recommended by the server, ii.) is pre-stored in an electronic device, and iii) having an increased pre-read hit ratio when the first content webpage is displayed.

12. The non-transitory computer storage medium according to claim 11 , wherein:

the list of content webpages, including the second content webpage includes a list of news recommended to the user.

13. The non-transitory computer storage medium according to claim 11 , wherein the sliding action is a sliding on a screen of the electronic device towards a left direction.

14. The non-transitory computer storage medium according to claim 11 , wherein:

the parameter includes at least one of a path length of the sliding action and a speed of the sliding action.

15. The non-transitory computer storage medium according to claim 11 , wherein a domain name of the second content webpage is different from a domain name of the first content webpage.

16. The non-transitory computer storage medium according to claim 11 , further comprising a browser.

17. An electronic device, comprising:

a touch screen configured to detect a signal of sliding on the touch screen; and

a processor configured to:

receive webpage data of a first content webpage from a network,

detect a sliding action of a user based on the signal from the touch screen when the first content webpage is displayed on the touch screen, and

providing a second content webpage displayed in a suspended window based on the detection, without returning to a node webpage of a portal website, to which both the first content webpage and a list of content webpages including the second content webpage are related, wherein the suspended window provides the list of content webpages including the second content webpage, wherein:

the second content webpage is provided when a parameter obtained based on the detection reaches a predetermined threshold value, the predetermined threshold value being pre-determined by at least using statistical data of browsing habits of the user, the browsing habits including reading a new content webpage by performing a sliding action, and

when the parameter obtained based on the detection reaches the predetermined threshold value, requesting the second content webpage from a server, the second content webpage: i.) is a new content webpage recommended by the server, ii.) is pre-stored in the electronic device, and iii) having an increased pre-read hit ratio when the first content webpage is displayed.

18. The electronic device according to claim 17 , wherein:

the sliding action is towards a left direction;

the second content webpage is provided when a parameter obtained based on the detection reaches a predetermined threshold value; and

the parameter includes at least one of a path length of the sliding action and a speed of the sliding action.

19. The electronic device according to claim 17 , wherein a domain name of the second content webpage is different from a domain name of the first content webpage.
