Abstract

A method and apparatus of modifying user content data on a mobile station are disclosed. One example method of displaying customized content data on a mobile station may include receiving the content data at the mobile station, and modifying the content data based on predefined viewing preferences of the user. The modified content may then be displayed on a display interface of the mobile station allowing the user to view the content based on their specified preferences.

Claims

1. A method, comprising:

designating information of an interactive viewing interface for a mobile station, the information including first information indicative of at least one operating parameter of the mobile station and second information indicative of one or more viewing preferences of a user of the mobile station, the first and second information stored at a remote location server;

receiving, at the mobile station, content data in a form which has been already modified based on the at least one operating parameter of the mobile station indicated in the interactive viewing interface; and

modifying the content data at the mobile station based on the one or more predefined viewing preferences indicated in the interactive viewing interface, wherein the mobile station and the remote location server are communicably coupled to each other, wherein the at least one operating parameter is a device type of the mobile station, a network speed, or an operating system of the mobile station and wherein modifying the content data comprises modifying text formatting of the content data based on the one or more predefined viewing preferences of the user indicated in the interactive viewing interface.

2. The method of claim 1, comprising displaying the modified content data on a display interface of the mobile station.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the modifying operation comprises modifying an original hyper text markup language (HTML) code of the content data.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the modifying operation based on the one or more predefined viewing preferences comprises resizing images of the content data.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the modifying operation based on the one or more predefined viewing preferences comprises converting a file type of the images of the content data.

6. The method of claim 1, comprising transmitting the one or more predefined viewing preferences and the content data to the mobile station in a same message.

7. An apparatus, comprising:

memory; and

a processor configured to;

designate information of an interactive viewing interface for a mobile station, the information including first information indicative of at least one operating parameter of the mobile station and second information indicative of one or more viewing preferences of a user of the mobile station, the first and second information to be stored at a remote location server;

receive content data in a form which has been already modified based on the at least one operating parameter of the mobile station indicated in the interactive viewing interface; and

modify the content data at the mobile station based on the one or more predefined viewing preferences indicated in the interactive viewing interface, wherein the mobile station and the remote location server are communicably coupled to each other, wherein the at least one operating parameter is a device type of the mobile station, a network speed, or an operating system of the mobile station and wherein the modified content data comprises modified text formatting of the content data based on the one or more predefined viewing preferences of the user indicated in the interactive viewing interface.

8. The apparatus of claim 7, comprising a display configured to display the modified content data.

9. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein the content data being modified comprises an original hyper text markup language (HTML) code of the content data being modified.

10. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein the content data based on the one or more predefined viewing preferences being modified comprises images of the content data being resized.

11. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein the content data based on the one or more predefined viewing preferences being modified comprises a file type of the images of the content data being converted.

12. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein the one or more predefined viewing preferences and the content data are transmitted to the apparatus in a same message.

13. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium configured to store a computer program that when executed causes a processor to perform:

designating information of an interactive viewing interface for a mobile station, the information including first information indicative of at least one operating parameter of the mobile station and second information indicative of one or more viewing preferences of a user of the mobile station, the first and second information stored at a remote location server;

receiving, at the mobile station, content data in a form which has been already modified based on the at least one operating parameter of the mobile station indicated in the interactive viewing interface; and

modifying the content data at the mobile station based on the one or more predefined viewing preferences indicated in the interactive viewing interface, wherein the mobile station and the remote location server are communicably coupled to each other, wherein the at least one operating parameter is a device type of the mobile station, a network speed, or an operating system of the mobile station and wherein modifying the content data comprises modifying text formatting of the content data based on the one or more predefined viewing preferences of the user indicated in the interactive viewing interface.

14. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 13, wherein the processor is configured to display the modified content data on a display of the mobile station.

15. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 13, wherein the modify operation based on the one or more predefined viewing preferences further comprises at least one of:

modifying an original hyper text markup language (HTML) code of the content data, resizing images of the content data, and converting a file type of the images of the content data.
