Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for processing search information. One of the methods includes receiving search information from a user and sending the search information to a cloud server to cause the cloud server to perform search processing based on the search information. The method further includes pushing display information to the user on a display interface before the cloud server returns a result associated with the search processing.

Claims (54)

1. A search information processing method, comprising:

receiving a setting by a user on information content of display information for displaying on a display interface between a first time of sending a search request to a cloud server and a second time of receiving a search result from the cloud server for the search request;

receiving subscribed display information corresponding to the setting on information content;

receiving search information from the user;

sending the search information to the cloud server to cause the cloud server to perform search processing based on the search information;

before the cloud server returns a search processing result associated with the search processing, displaying one piece of the subscribed display information to the user on the display interface;

before entire content of the piece of the subscribed display information is completely displayed, receiving the search processing result from the cloud server;

in response to receiving the search processing result, displaying a pop-up prompt on the display interface, wherein the pop-up prompt queries the user whether to stop displaying the piece of the subscribed display information and start to display the search processing result; and

in response to a user selection to not stop displaying the piece of the subscribed display information, continuing to display the piece of the subscribed display information until the entire content is displayed and then displaying the search processing result; or

in response to a user selection to stop displaying the piece of the subscribed display information, stopping displaying the piece of the subscribed display information and starting to display the search processing result.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the display information comprises at least one of the following:

a picture, audio, a video, an animation, and text.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the setting further comprises:

a setting on a display form of the display information.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

obtaining the one piece of the subscribed display information from a local storage.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the subscribed display information comprises at least one of the following: weather information, advertisement information, and current news.

6. A system comprising a processor and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions executable by the processor to cause the system to perform operations comprising:

receiving a setting by a user on information content of display information for displaying on a display interface between a first time of sending a search request to a cloud server and a second time of receiving a search result from the cloud server for the search request;

receiving subscribed display information corresponding to the setting on information content;

receiving search information from the user;

sending the search information to the cloud server to cause the cloud server to perform search processing based on the search information;

before the cloud server returns a search processing result associated with the search processing, displaying one piece of the subscribed display information to the user on the display interface;

before entire content of the piece of the subscribed display information is completely displayed, receiving the search processing result from the cloud server;

in response to receiving the search processing result, displaying a pop-up prompt on the display interface, wherein the pop-up prompt queries the user whether to stop displaying the piece of the subscribed display information and start to display the search processing result; and

in response to a user selection to not stop displaying the piece of the subscribed display information, continuing to display the piece of the subscribed display information until the entire content is displayed and then displaying the search processing result; or

in response to a user selection to stop displaying the piece of the subscribed display information, stopping displaying the piece of the subscribed display information and starting to display the search processing result.

7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the display information comprises at least one of the following:

a picture, audio, a video, an animation, and text.

8. The system of claim 6 , wherein the setting further comprises:

a setting on a display form of the display information.

9. The system of claim 6 , wherein the operations further comprise

obtaining the display information from a local storage.

10. The system of claim 6 , wherein:

the subscribed display information comprises at least one of the following: weather information, advertisement information, and current news.

11. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium configured with instructions executable by one or more processors to cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

receiving a setting by a user on information content of display information for displaying on a display interface between a first time of sending a search request to a cloud server and a second time of receiving a search result from the cloud server for the search request;

receiving subscribed display information corresponding to the setting on information content;

receiving search information from the user;

sending the search information to the cloud server to cause the cloud server to perform search processing based on the search information;

before the cloud server returns a search processing result associated with the search processing, displaying one piece of the subscribed display information to the user on the display interface;

before entire content of the piece of the subscribed display information is completely displayed, receiving the search processing result from the cloud server;

in response to receiving the search processing result, displaying a pop-up prompt on the display interface, wherein the pop-up prompt queries the user whether to stop displaying the piece of the subscribed display information and start to display the search processing result; and

in response to a user selection to not stop displaying the piece of the subscribed display information, continuing to display the piece of the subscribed display information until the entire content is displayed and then displaying the search processing result; or

in response to a user selection to stop displaying the piece of the subscribed display information, stopping displaying the piece of the subscribed display information and starting to display the search processing result.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein the display information comprises at least one of the following:

a picture, audio, a video, an animation, and text.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein the setting further comprises:

a setting on a display form of the display information.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise:

obtaining the display information from a local storage.

15. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein:

the subscribed display information comprises at least one of the following: weather information, advertisement information, and current news.
