Abstract
A method and system for converting interactive animated information content for display on handheld or mobile devices is presented. Information content that includes files with frames intended to be sequentially played out for display may be converted into a single frame or a smaller collection of frames for display on a device, so that a user of a device may have access to some of the content contained in the file. A server may receive a request for information content that includes a file with frames for playout, and the server will playout the file in an accelerated manner so as to arrive at one or more selected frames quickly. The server will then send the selected frames, or intermediary frames reached during playout, to a client device that requested the web page, for example.
