1. A method for providing content comprising:
- identifying a target platform for combined video content based on a request for content communicated from the target platform;
locating and harvesting the requested content to obtain a platform-neutral version of the requested content and combining the platform-neutral version of the requested content with video content to produce the combined video content; and
delivering the combined video content via a content distribution network to the target platform for display to a viewer, wherein;
the combined video content for the target platform is produced according to;
meta-data information about design objects and properties of the combined video content stored in data store.

Abstract
A method and system are disclosed for acquiring and transforming existing content (e.g., Hyper Text Markup Language HTML content) for display and execution on multiple platforms and architectures. In one embodiment, capture templates are created to harvest content from disparate content sources on multiple platforms. Data is extracted from the content from the disparate content sources using the created capture templates that drives extracting process. A standardized data stream is generated from the extracted data. The standardized data stream is provided for display on one or more different type of platforms.

10. A data processing system, comprising:
-
a processing unit configured to produce combined video content by combining a platform-neutral version of viewer-requested content with video content and configured to deliver the combined video content via a content distribution network to a specific platform for display to a viewer; and a computer-readable repository accessible by the processing unit, the repository comprising a first data store configured to store meta-data relating to design objects and properties of multiple target platforms for the combined video content, and to provide specific meta-data relating to design objects and properties for delivery of the combined video content to the specific platform, wherein the combined video content is produced according to the meta-data stored in the first data store. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
parsing a Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) page; creating an XHTML-compliant document from the HTML page; extracting content from the XHTML-compliant document using a capture template specifying how elements of the XHTML-compliant document are to be located for retrieval; creating one or more extensible markup language (XML) files or documents from the extracted content; and transforming the XML files or documents into a displayable format. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
