Abstract

A method of augmenting presentation of text in a document includes obtaining a DOM tree associated with a markup of the document, searching a plurality of nodes of the DOM tree for a target text string such that a child node is searched after searching a corresponding parent node. A target text node of the DOM tree is identified, the target text node including an entirety of the target text string and having no child nodes including the entirety of the target text string. Responsive to identifying the target text node, the markup is modified in one of: the target text node and a child node of the target text node including a portion of the target text string. The markup is modified to augment presentation of the target text string in the document. A system for augmenting presentation of text in a document is also disclosed.

Dependent claims

A method of modifying visual presentation of a text of a document, the text comprising a plurality of text strings, the plurality of text strings including a target content text string to be visually modified, the target content text string comprising a set of characters, and one or more additional text strings, the document to be displayed on a display of an electronic device, the method being executable at a server and comprising:

determining the target content text string to be visually modified in the text of the document;
obtaining a Document Object Model (DOM) tree associated with a markup of the document, the DOM tree including a plurality of nodes, each node of the plurality of nodes including a content portion and a syntax portion, the syntax portion containing at least one tag, the plurality of nodes including a plurality of parent nodes and a plurality of child nodes, at least some parent nodes of the plurality of parent nodes having a corresponding at least one child node of the plurality of child nodes;
identifying a target text node in the plurality of nodes of the DOM tree by searching the content portions of the plurality of nodes for an entirety of the target content text string being present therein, the searching comprising:
identifying a first node of the plurality of nodes of the DOM tree containing the entirety of the target content text string therein by searching the plurality of nodes in the DOM tree beginning at a root node of the DOM tree;
and
after identifying the first node:
determining that none of the respective child nodes of the first node contains the entirety of the target content text string therein by searching each child node of the first node;
and
assigning the first node to be the target text node after determining that none of the respective child nodes contains the entirety of the target content text string therein;
and
responsive to identifying the target text node:
dividing the target text string into a plurality of portions,
determining one or more child nodes of the target text node, and
determining that each portion of the plurality of portions corresponds to at least one child node of the one or more child nodes by comparing each portion of the plurality of portions to the one or more child nodes;
modifying the markup in one of:
the target text node and a child node of the target text node having a content portion which includes a portion of the target content text string, the modifying including modifying a visual presentation of the target content text string on the display of the electronic device;
and
displaying a modified document comprising the modified visual presentation of the target content text string, based on the modified markup, together with the one or more additional text strings, on the electronic device.

A system for modifying visual presentation of a text of a document, the text comprising a plurality of text strings, the plurality of text strings including a target content text string to be visually modified, the target content text string comprising a set of characters, and one or more additional text strings, the document to be displayed on a display of an electronic device, the system comprising:

a processor;
and
a communication interface operatively coupled to the processor and configured to receive a document,
the processor being configured to cause modifying of a presentation of the document, the processor being configured to:
determine the target content text string to be visually modified in the text of the document;
obtain a Document Object Model (DOM) tree associated with a markup of the document, the DOM tree including a plurality of nodes, each node of the plurality of nodes including a content portion and a syntax portion, the syntax portion containing at least one tag, the plurality of nodes including a plurality of parent nodes and a plurality of child nodes, at least some parent nodes of the plurality of parent nodes having a corresponding at least one child node of the plurality of child nodes;
identifying a target text node in the plurality of nodes of the DOM tree by searching the content portions of the plurality of nodes for an entirety of the target content text string being present therein, the searching comprising:
identifying a first node of the plurality of nodes of the DOM tree containing the entirety of the target content text string therein by searching the plurality of nodes in the DOM tree beginning at a root node of the DOM tree;
and
after identifying the first node:
determining that none of the respective child nodes of the first node contains the entirety of the target content text string therein by searching each child node of the first node;
and
assigning the first node to be the target text node after determining that none of the respective child nodes contain the entirety of the target content text string therein;
and responsive to identifying the target text node:
dividing the target text string into a plurality of portions, determining one or more child nodes of the target text node, and determining that each portion of the plurality of portions corresponds to at least one child node of the one or more child nodes by comparing each portion of the plurality of portions to the one or more child nodes;
modifying the markup in one of:
the target text node and a child node of the target text node having a content portion which includes a portion of the target content text string, the modifying including modifying a visual presentation of the target content text string on the display of the electronic device;
and
displaying, a modified document comprising the modified visual presentation of the target content text string, based on the modified markup, together with the one or more additional text strings, on the electronic device.
