Patent ID: 6983331

Claim:
A method for controlling content displayed as a single Web page on a device, where the device is incapable of displaying all available content, comprising the steps of: (a) automatically determining an available display area for displaying the single Web page on the device; (b) automatically determining a combination of different portions of the available content that can be fully displayed in the single Web page in the available display area without requiring scrolling in more than one direction and without requiring a modification of the different portions of the content that results in the different portions comprising the combination being perceived in less than their entirety on the single Web page; and (c) displaying only the combination of different portions of the content that were automatically determined to enable a user to discern all of the information that the combination of different portions of the content provides as fully displayed in the available display area, since the combination of different portions of the content does not employ a hyperlink to display the information it conveys, without requiring scrolling in more than one direction, and without requiring a modification of the combination of different portions of the content that results in the different portions of content comprising the combination being perceived in less than their entirety.
