User interface for a resource search tool
First Claim
1. A method of annotating a representation of a search result target resource identified in a resource search based on at least one search criterion, the method comprising:
- generating the representation of the search result target resource;
performing layout analysis of the search result target resource to identify one or more logical sections of the search result target resource;
performing linguistic analysis of the search result target resource;
bannotating the representation of the search result target resource based on the linguistic analysis to indicate at least one logical section of the search result target resource includes an element that satisfies the at least one search criterion.

Abstract
A resource search tool provides important context assistance and control for viewing resources on an incompatible display, such as a handheld display. A handheld device, for example, does not provide a large enough display space to provide a quick and comfortable search tool interface for a user. The search tool provides annotated search result pages and search result target pages to signify search hits in one or more documents or logical unites of the individual documents. In addition, progress indicators are provided to inform the user of the progress of the background layout and linguistic processing used to annotate for each search result target page.

43. A resource search tool for annotating a representation of a search result target resource identified in a resource search based on at least one search criterion, the resource search tool comprising:
-
an image generator creating the representation of the search result target resource;
a layout analysis module analyzing the layout of the search result target resource to identify one or more logical sections of the search result target resource;
