Abstract
Apparatus, methods and software for creating resolution-independent vector display of Internet (Web) content to allow Web pages to be scaled (zoomed) and panned for better viewing and/or to fit any resolution or screen size. According to one aspect, novel client-side processing of Web content is provided that translates portions of Web content requested by a user from an original format to a scalable vector-based format. The scalable vector-based format enables the Web content to be rendered by the client such that the rendered display substantially retains an original page layout defined by the original format, while supporting scaling and panning of the Web content in real-time.
