LOCATION SPECIFIC DISPLAY OF INFORMATION RESOURCES ON A HOST INTERFACE

摘要

A computer implemented method and system is provided for displaying information resources linked from a host interface on selected locations on the host interface. A processing element is defined for a link referenced in the host interface. The processing element determines an address of an information resource referenced by the link. An area representation element specifies locations for displaying the information resource on the host interface. A display element is defined for displaying content of the information resource on the host interface and is linked to the processing element and the area representation element. The linked display element retrieves the address of the information resource from the processing element and retrieves the location selected by the user from the area representation element. The linked display element retrieves content of the information resource from the retrieved address and displays the retrieved content in the selected location on the host interface.
