Abstract
Various embodiments of a network page are provided. In one embodiment, at least one server serves up a network page to a client to be rendered on the client in a networked environment. The network page is associated with a network site that facilitates ordering items. The network page includes a stack of overlapping identical graphical icons that is employed to represent the item having a quantity greater than one, and a plurality of destination regions, each of the destination regions being associated with a corresponding one of a plurality of shipping addresses. The network page is configured to facilitate an association of the stack of overlapping identical graphical icons with a respective one of the destination regions.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- obtaining, by at least one computing device, a network page that facilitates ordering an item selected by a user;
- rendering, by the at least one computing device, an item region, on the network page, that includes a stack of overlapping identical graphical icons that is employed to represent the item having a quantity greater than one;
- rendering, by the at least one computing device, a respective destination region, on the network page, for each one of a plurality of shipping addresses associated with the user;
- receiving, by the at least one computing device, a drag-and-drop action moving the stack of overlapping identical graphical icons to the corresponding destination region of one of the shipping addresses;
- positioning, by the at least one computing device, the stack of overlapping identical graphical icons into the corresponding destination region of the one of the shipping addresses in response to the drag-and-drop action;
- and
- associating, by the at least one computing device, the item with the one of the shipping addresses in response to the stack of overlapping identical graphical icons being positioned into the corresponding destination region of the one of the shipping addresses, wherein the stack of overlapping identical graphical icons graphically persists on the network page in the corresponding destination region.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying a program executable in at least one computing device, wherein when executed the program causes the at least one computing device to at least:
- obtain a network page that facilitates ordering an item selected by a user;
- render an item region, on the network page, that includes a stack of overlapping identical graphical icons that is employed to represent the item having a quantity greater than one;
- render a respective destination region, on the network page, for each one of a plurality of shipping addresses associated with the user;
- receive a drag-and-drop action moving the stack of overlapping identical graphical icons to the corresponding destination region of one of the shipping addresses;
- position the stack of overlapping identical graphical icons into the corresponding destination region of the one of the shipping addresses in response to the drag-and-drop action;
- and
- associate the item with one of the shipping addresses in response to the drag-and drop action, wherein the stack of overlapping identical graphical icons graphically persists on the network page in the corresponding destination region.
A system, comprising:
- at least one computing device;
- and
- an application executable in the at least one computing device, the application being configured to cause the at least one computing device to:
- generate a network page that facilitates ordering an item selected by a user;
- generate an item region, on the network page, that includes a stack of overlapping identical graphical icons that is employed to represent the item having a quantity greater than one;
- generate a respective destination region, on the network page, for each one of a plurality of shipping addresses associated with the user;
- and
- transmit code to another at least one computing device, the code being configured to cause the other at least one computing device to at least:
- receive a drag-and-drop action moving the stack of overlapping identical graphical icons to the corresponding destination region of one of the shipping addresses;
- position the stack of overlapping identical graphical icons into the corresponding destination region of the one of the shipping addresses in response to the drag-and-drop action;
- and
- associate the item with one of the shipping addresses in response to the drag-and-drop action, wherein the stack of overlapping identical graphical icons of the item graphically persists on the network page in the corresponding destination region.
