First Claim
1. A method for converting content browsed at a device, the method comprising:
- receiving, from an external device, information about a specification of the external device and a request signal for information related to the content which is currently browsed at the device;
detecting a document object from the browsed content based on the received information about the external device;
determining the browsed content to be converted based on the detected document object;
converting the determined browsed content into data that can be browsed on the external device based on the information about the external device;
requesting data associated with the converted data from an external server via a predetermined communication network;
receiving the associated data; and
transmitting the associated data to the external device along with the converted data,wherein the document object includes content in a specific region of a screen of the device currently being viewed.
