OFFLINE BROWSING WITH MOBILE DEVICE

摘要

The present invention provides a mechanism for efficiently displaying a web site and its content on a mobile device independent of whether the mobile device is connected or disconnected from the network. When the mobile device requests a server hosting the web site, the server compresses the page elements which compose the web site content. The server transmits the compressed page elements in response to the mobile device's request. The mobile device decompresses the page elements and locally stores the decompressed page elements. The mobile device displays the web site content which is locally stored when a user of the mobile device so requests.
