METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR BACKGROUND GENERATION USING GUIDES

摘要

The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method for generating expandable backgrounds for widget elements on a website, blog or ecommerce application, where the backgrounds are generated by taking the nine subimages generated from the subdivision of a given background image with two sets of orthogonal lines. The sub-images are automatically combined into cascading style sheet (CSS) elements, creating HTML backgrounds that seamlessly resize both vertically and horizontally as the content of the element grows.

主权项

1. A method for the creation of HTML backgrounds, comprising:
providing a computer system executing instructions for transforming background images; providing a background image; separating the background image into nine sub-images defined as four corner images, two horizontal connector images, two vertical connector images, and one center image; and transforming the corner images into non-tiling corner images, the two horizontal connector images into horizontal tiling images, the two vertical connector images into vertical connector tiling images, and the center image into a vertical and horizontal tiling image, wherein the background image becomes scalable vertically and horizontally without distortion of the corners.
