METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR WEBPAGE READING BASED ON MOBILE TERMINAL

A webpage reading method based on a mobile terminal is provided. The method includes: based on an input web address, loading current webpage contents corresponding to the web address from a webpage server and displaying the loaded webpage contents; when loading the current webpage contents, detecting whether a pre-reading keyword is included in an HTML file or DOM; when the pre-reading keyword exists, determining whether a percentage of the displayed contents with respect to entire current webpage contents reaches or exceeds a pre-set threshold value; when the percentage reaches or exceeds the pre-set threshold value, pre-reading and caching the next webpage contents based on a web address associated with the pre-reading keyword; and when a pre-set condition of displaying next webpage contents is satisfied, displaying the next webpage contents. The method pre-reads the next webpage contents before all current webpage contents are displayed and displays promptly the next webpage contents after a user finishes reading the current webpage contents, thereby reducing the time spent in waiting for reading the next webpage contents so as to improve the reading experience of the user.
