A communications system includes an information source and a terminal. The information source is capable of transferring information including a variable-string URL that comprises at least one variable string. The terminal, which is adapted to communicate via a communications network, is capable of receiving information including the variable-string URL from the information source. The terminal can then interpret the variable strings into associated requests for information, and thereafter request the information locally at the terminal. Then, the terminal can receive a response to the request for information, and reformat the variable-string URL to incorporate the response to the request for information to thereby generate a dynamic URL such that the response to the request for information can be transmitted.
