Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A mobile terminal and a method for controlling a function of the mobile terminal using contents are disclosed. The contents are authored to include function control information related to the function of the mobile terminal desired to be controlled. The mobile terminal downloads the contents and registers the function desired to be controlled included in the contents to a service table. The application of the mobile terminal does not execute the called function as it is if the predetermined function is called, but identifies if the called function is registered in the service table. If the called function is registered, the application cancels the existing execution routine for the called function and requests the contents player of the service related to the called function. Then, the contents player controls the called function according to a method programmed in the contents.
