7. The method according to claim 1, wherein modifying the element that is determined by the code value to be modified according to the code value comprises:

based on a modification pattern pre-stored for modifying elements using code values, modifying the element that is determined by the code value to be modified according to the code value;

wherein the modification pattern at least comprises adjusting a value of a corresponding element according to the code value or adjusting a property of the corresponding element according to the code value.

8. A method for adjusting an element, which is applied to a playing device, the method comprising:

receiving a code value sent from a media source device connected with the playing device, the code value being generated by pressing down one of buttons on a remote control device and sent to the media source device;

detecting whether an element that is determined by the code value to be modified exists in a page currently displayed by the playing device;

adjusting the element that is determined by the code value to be modified according to the code value, when the element that is determined by the code value to be modified exists in the page currently displayed by the playing device.

9. The method according to claim 8, further comprising:
