The present invention relates to a method, terminal, and computer program for presenting a markup language document which contains a frameset. The method comprises the steps of interpreting the instructions in the document so that no scrollbars are displayed in the individual frames. The frames may be displayed in a reformatted manner, e.g., with expanded dimensions and/or reformatted contents. Such reformatting of the displayed frames does not require any revision of the markup language document.

System and method for formatting and displaying frameset documents

The object of the present invention is to render markup documents within the limits of resolutions smaller than the resolutions for which the markup documents were originally designed, in most cases without introducing horizontal scrolling, while keeping the original fonts, colors, design, and style. The object is achieved by finding and selecting elements whose content takes up too much space horizontally, determining appropriate widths for rendering such elements, and shrinking or horizontally squeezing such elements individually to fit within their respective determined widths. Further, the invention determines the widths for rendering table cells in such manner as to preserve the layout of the corresponding table.
